/npc remove npcsname

Okay, but if you had an option "destruct" in menu of each character, it would be easier for players who don't like command lines (like me ;-) )

Hey, I got two issues,
#1 Only Guards and Deco NPCs move
#2 I can't kill any of the NPCs.

How do you fix this? I made a hotel complete with a cafeteria but I can't go in cause this NPC is blocking the way. Cant kill him either.

EDIT 1: Never mind. Esteban fixed it. But still, how do you make them move?
EDIT 2: /npc is not a valid command according to Minetest.

Issue #1

Info npcs and trader npcs do not move. The builder moves as he builds the basic_hut.we.
Its not a bug or problem, they were coded that way.

Issue #2

Npcs cannot be killed, they are removed by using a command:
/npcf remove npcsname
EDIT: /npcf delete npcsname
They are meant to be placed by admins and not removable by other users.

I issued the command twice and nothing happened.

Sorry, Its:
/npcf delete npcsname

Thanks! It worked! Goodbye Ken! ;)

Poor Ken :-)

That's right. NPC standing in the way and/or becoming victim to clearallobjects where reasons for me to add an option to pick them up in my traders mod. Beeing able to place a mob elsewhere is sometimes important.

How do blacklists and whitelists work?

SAMIAMNOT wrote:How do blacklists and whitelists work?

Blacklist is the mobs to be attacked.
Ex. Oerkki monster, type in the box "mobs:oerkki".

Whitelist is the name of players not to be attacked if you check "Attack players"
Ex. Just write the name of the player.

my only question is what do i save it as?

kidmondo wrote:my only question is what do i save it as?

The name of the mod? Is a modpack, so make sure the mod with the npcs is called "npcf" and the one with fonts as "textcolors". If you have issues check the posts above, usually they help.

Welcome back! is good to see you back working on mods!

Since it's licensed as LGPL, there's no reason you can't. :)

SAO/GGO mod, eh? Seems like it could be cool.

I had this super wierd bug where the NPCs would dissappear afterabout 40 secs and made a sound like you were walking on grass when you place one. Is it me? Anybody else have this issue?

try with kill them with a sword.it worked for me.but idk wich npc mod i do have for sure

I really like this mod. I'm either having a problem or would like to suggest a new feature. I'm working on an adventure map and I was hoping to have npcs that display messages. This mod works well for that except that multiple information npcs all share the same text message. I can skin them all differently but they all sing the same tune. If I change it in one, the rest follow suit. Is this the how it's supposed to be; and if so, could it be changed?

Ok, for some reason it's working today. I guess it was just me or something. All of the information NPCs have unique messages now. I don't know what happened. Maybe I did something that bugged it out. Anyway; I really like this mod.

Some of the NPCs did change their vertical position by one half snap. Three of them are now one half below where I placed them and one is one half above. I'll try using the setpos command to fix it.

Sorry for the confusion.

No problem, let me know if the position problem persists and I will have a look at it. Unfortunately minetest's entity system has been known to be somewhat buggy and one of the main reasons I gave up working on this a long time ago.

I have, however, noticed that a few servers are actually using this so I will do my best to fix any genuine bugs in the mod itself.

Thanks stu. :-)

It is persisting. It seems that the current version of minetest snaps nodes on the .5s on the y axis. The entities keep snapping to hole numbers. Sometimes they choose the one above and sometimes the one below. Other than that, it works pretty well. I hope this information is helpful.

I dont know why but I cant blacklist nodes anymore.

EDIT: To expound, I cannot alter the blacklist text entry; that is, if I change it and hit enter or hit OK the changes are not saved when I right-click the NPC, IF I have already changed one entry. So, for instance, after blacklisting animals_modpack:wolf I could not come back and blacklist animals_modpack:bear, nor blacklist it in a new guard. Please help, this has led me to stop using your guards unless I want to attack players.

There are some really nasty bugs and inefficiencies in the current version of this modpack.
I have, however, noticed that it is actually being used by a few people and so decided it deserved little love :3

Although not quite ready for public consumption yet, I have just pushed my 'next generation' branch upstream for testing purposes. This is pretty much a ground-up rewrite of the core so I'd be interested to read the findings of those who do.

https://github.com/stujones11/minetest- ... ee/npcf_ng (requires a recent dev build of minetest)

Note that there is now a new example mob npc, you probably wanna disable that one for now as it is hightly destructive! (you have been warned)
