==Citizens2 is Here! What's New?==
==Features==
For the past few months, we have been planning a complete rewrite of the core code and API. We believed that Citizens wasn't fully living up to its potential. There were so many things we could do and so many places we could go with it. But the code didn't allow for many of these things. So, we agreed to completely redo the system. With Citizens2 comes a better code base, better API, and shiny new features for server administrators to play with.
* NPCs can walk, stand and talk naturally to players.
 
* Easy to use [[API]] for developers that allow [[Traits]] to be built for specific functionality.
===Key Features===
* [[Types|Support for all mob types]] including Players, Pigs, and even non living ones like dropped items or arrow projectiles.  
-New and improved [[API]] for developers. This allows for brand new [[:Category:Characters|Characters]] to be made that can enhance your Minecraft experience.
* [[Commands]] Extensive commands to customise NPCs.
<br><br>-[[Data Storage|Database support]]. When the settings first generate, the default save method is YML. You can change ''use-database'' in the ''config.yml'' to true if you wish to use a database. There are also database settings that you must configure before you can begin using the database.
* [[Controllable NPCs|Ridable NPCs]].
<br><br>-[[Types|Mob NPCs]]. No longer are you confined to human NPCs. Now you can create intimidating blazes around a Nether portal, welcoming sheep near the spawn, and helpful villagers in your villages. See the [[Commands]] page to see how to create a mob NPC.
* Text editing.
<br><br>-[[Editors|Improved text editing]]. The new text-editing interface allows for easier NPC text adding, removing, and changing.
* Basic GUI shops.
 
* Pathing.
===But, what happened to my NPC types?===
* Much more.
NPC types are now known as "Characters". Instead of placing these JAR files into the ''/plugins/Citizens/types'' directory, all you need to do is drop the JAR in the plugins folder. '''It is important to note, however, that all of your previous NPC type files will not work'''. You need to upgrade to the new characters if you so choose to use them. You can find more information on each character at the [[Characters]] page.
 
===Well how do I get this shiny new version?===
Citizens 2 is still in development, and isn't stable enough for a production server. However, there are development builds out that can be found on [http://ci.citizensnpcs.net Jenkins]. Instructions to install the development builds can be found on the [[Installation]] page.
 
==Credits==
 
Citizens would not be where it is today without the contributions of these people:
 
<br>'''Paul_T''' - citizensnpcs.net server host
<br>'''AgentKid''' - Wiki editor, test server provider
<br>'''aufdemrand''' - Wiki editor, logo and website designer
<br>'''NeonMaster''' - Server and web maintenance, website developer
<br>You, for trying out and using Citizens!
 
Also, a special thanks to all of those in IRC who have tested and to all of those who have donated! We would be nowhere without you!</div>
