===But, what happened to my NPC types? Can I still use those?===
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 or the /plugins/Citizens/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.
===Where's the <insert character name here>?===
Hang tight! We decided that rather than simply port the characters, we would rebuild them from scratch, including the design. We're redesigning most of the characters to work better with Citizens2 and be easier to use. If you want to see a character and can code, there's also the option of creating your own! See the [[API]] 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.com Jenkins]. Instructions to install the development builds can be found on the [[Installation]] page.

What's New?

After months of waiting, countless failures and disappointments, Citizens 2.0 is finally here! You can download it here. For instructions on how to install it, check out the Installation page.


Key Features

  • New and improved API for developers. This allows for brand new Characters to be made that can enhance your Minecraft experience.
  • Database support. When the settings first generate, the default save method is YML. You can change storage.type in the config.yml to database if you wish to use a database. There are also database settings that you must configure before you can begin using the database.
  • 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.
  • Improved text editing. The new text-editing interface allows for easier NPC text adding, removing, and changing. There are also a few new text-related Configuration settings.
  • Ability to set the server as the owner of an NPC. This makes it so only those with the "citizens.admin" permission can use and edit the NPC.
  • Ridable NPCs. 'nuff said.
  • A new scripting engine makes Citizens perhaps the most powerful plugin you have ever used.
  • New Characters!
  • And much more!

Can I keep my old NPCs?

You'll have to convert your old npc-profiles.yml files first. A converter can be found here on the site. Once you get the saves.yml file, place it in ./plugins/Citizens/saves.yml .
