Quickly Setting Up Armed Soldiers with Easy Build and Presets

Opening the NPC Combat Editor

Before configuring any fighter, make sure you are in Creative mode and have already spawned a character from CustomNPCs in your world. Open your Creative inventory and grab the DW Npc Core item. Hold the DW Npc Core in your main hand and right-click directly on the CustomNPCs character. This opens the NPC Combat Editor menu, where all weapon handling, movement, and combat rules are managed.

Using Easy Build and Presets

If you are populating a large battle map and do not want to manually tune every combat behavior from scratch, the editor provides two shortcut tools right inside the popup menu:

• Easy Build: Click the Easy Build button to launch a guided setup. Instead of presenting dense menus, it asks a series of simple questions about the fighter you want and configures a working guard or soldier based on your answers.
• Presets Tool: Select the Presets tool to apply ready-to-use combat roles immediately. Available presets include snipers for long-range overwatch, patrollers for base security, and heavy gunners for frontline fights.

Once a preset or Easy Build profile is applied, equip the character with a supported firearm from TACZ (or compatible mods like PointBlank or SuperbWarfare) so they fight with real gun items rather than default magic-style attacks.
