Custom NPCs Roles and Jobs

Roles and Jobs are the functional 'brains' of an NPC. Roles usually require player interaction, while Jobs are passive behaviors performed automatically.

NPC Roles

• Trader: Allows the NPC to function as a shopkeeper. You can set up to 18 trade recipes.
• Follower: Enables the NPC to be hired by players for a set price and duration.
• Bank: Provides access to a global or local storage system (similar to an Ender Chest).
• Transporter: Acts as a fast-travel node. Players must discover transporters to unlock them in the travel menu.
• Mailman: Allows players to send and receive mail through the NPC.
• Companion: A more advanced follower system with leveling, talent trees, and specific combat roles.
• Puppet: Used for posing NPCs for dioramas or cinematics.

NPC Jobs

• Bard: Plays background music or specific sound files when players are nearby.
• Healer: Automatically heals nearby players or friendly NPCs.
• Guard: Attacks specific factions or monster types within a defined range.
• Item Giver: Hands out items to players based on timers or quest status.
• Spawner: Spawns other entities or clones when the NPC dies or enters combat.
• Conversation: Triggers automated chat messages between multiple NPCs.
• Chunk Loader: Keeps the surrounding chunks loaded even when no players are present.
