Setting up Citizens

Detailed information on setting up and upgrading Citizens can be found on the Installing page.

Creating your first NPC

It is important to read the Commands page for an in-depth look at all of the commands you can use to customize your NPCs. For now, here is a basic guide on how to setup an NPC.

Type /npc create [name]. Replace [name] with the name of your NPC. Optionally, you can add text to your NPC. To do this, simply add words after the name of the NPC. Example:

/npc create Notch I like cookies!

That's it! Of course there are various other things that you can do with basic NPCs as shown in Commands.

Characters

Having a basic NPC is cool, but you may want to make it another type. To change an NPC's type, use the command /toggle [type]. Replace [type] with the NPC type that you want to toggle your NPC to become. It is imperative that you have the NPC type's .jar file in your plugins/Citizens/types directory. If not, you won't be able to toggle an NPC to become that type.

/toggle healer
