As a temporary measure I've reverted to Tag: 1.0.0-alpha-1 - but it hasn't been long enough to know if it will crash or not yet.

Thanks very much for an amazing mod!

Hi scr267, branch currently is a mess, due to a lot of changes I've been doing, so I wouldn't go about using it now :)
However, feel free to use alpha1, which is the latest stable version.

I will also take a look at this error and see what is causing it.

Thanks! Hope you enjoy the mod... also for sure much better things are coming soon!

Is this mod dead? I hope not. I have been waiting for it to become stable and not crash.

I doubt it, but his last update/commit to the mod was in June. advanced-npc github.

I'm using this mod. Soon I will expand my project of mod societies, whose behavior of NPCs is realistic thanks to this incredible mod.

If you can merge Advanced_NPCs with Societies, I'll TAKE it! :D

Hi guys

I have a problem and I can’t figure out how to resolve it, there is no villagers, they never spawn, I let the server and the client running for more than an hour and nothing.
I check the code and I found something weird, inside the on_timer event (spawner.lua file) there is an If checking the variable mg_villages_entity_name, here is the code

Code: Select all

    on_timer = function(pos, elapsed)
            -- Adds timer support
            if mg_villages_entity_name ~= nil and mg_villages_entity_name ~= "" then
                npc.spawner.spawn_npc_on_plotmarker(mg_villages_entity_name, pos)
            end
        end,


Even I found a setter function but is never used, so the variable is nevet set and the If does nothing and no villagers spawn.

Any idea?
Best Regards and Thank you in advance

Zorman2000s last git commit changes this mod. This mod is now ONLY an API.

If you search Zorman2000s git, you'll find a repository for mg_villages_npc, which is the actual NPC mob.

You must install both to get the mob NPC.

Hi ShadMOrdre

Silly me, I never notice what you say, I'll test it tonight.

Thank you a lot.
Best Regards

Hey Guys

I test the mg_villages_npc and I've Villages, thank you ShadMOrdre.

Now I have another issue with the villagers, all of them are render below the ground, see the attach.

I think that the problem is related to the collisionbox and the position to render the model, somebody can help me?.

Best Regards and Thank you in advance.
