'''Citizens''' is a Minecraft server plugin that utilizes the [http://www.bukkit.org Bukkit API]. It adds various Non-Player Character (NPC) functionalities, from basic NPCs that talk to lively, active Guards. Originally featuring only one type of NPC, Citizens now contains 7 toggleable types and 1 creature type. With the Citizens [[API]], plugins developers can make their plugins compatible with NPCs. Server admins are even able to choose which types that they want on their server.

== Setting up Citizens ==
 
Current version, 1.1.4, can be downloaded at the [http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/citizens/files/10-1-1-4/ Bukkit-Dev page for Citizens].
 
=== New Installation ===
 
* Unzip the download obtained at Bukkit-Dev.
* Drag Citizens.jar and /Citizens directory into the /plugins directory of your server files.
* Start and stop your server.
* Configure the files in the /plugins/Citizens. Use the [[Configuration]] page for reference.
* Give your players permissions. See the [[Commands and Permissions]] page for detailed node information.
* Start your server again. Enjoy!
 
Problems? See [[Troubleshooting]].
 
=== Updating from 1.1.3 or 1.1.2 ===
 
* Stop your server
* Unzip the download obtained at Bukkit-Dev.
* Overwrite Citizens.jar and each Character Type .JAR file.
* Start your server. Enjoy!
 
Problems? See [[Troubleshooting]].
 
=== Updating from earlier versions ===
 
It is recommended when updating from early versions of Citizens that you start from scratch, however, old quest files and configuration files may still be valid.  New .JAR files should be overwritten over old versions
<br><br>
 
== Creating your first NPC ==
 
It is important to read the [[Commands and Permissions]] 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 Bob Hi, my name is Bob!''.
 
<pre>/npc create Notch I like cookies!</pre>
 
That's it! Of course there are various other things that you can do with basic NPCs as outlined in [[Basic NPCs]]
 
 
== 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.
 
<pre>/toggle healer</pre>
 
Formerly called NPC Types. Here and further known as just Characters, as they will be called in [[Citizens 2]].
 
'''Toggleable Types (These types can be toggled):'''
 
* [[Blacksmith]]
* [[Guard]]
* [[Healer]]
* [[Quester]]
* [[Trader]]
* [[Wizard]]
 
'''Mob Types (These types can automatically spawn):'''
 
* [[Evil NPCs]].
