==How do I upgrade from old versions to Citizens2?==
==Why isn't Citizens working on my server?==
Upgrading to Citizens2 is simple. Delete and/or backup '''all''' of your previous Citizens files. Download the appropriate Citizens JAR (whether you want to test developmental builds is up to you), and place it in the ''/plugins'' folder. From there, all of the new settings will generate and you can start creating new NPCs. Refer to the [[Configuration]], [[Commands]], and [[Permissions]] for further help.
Citizens is an advanced plugin and requires very a specific version of CraftBukkit in order to work.  


==How do I get <enter NPC type here>?==
If you are getting NoClassDefFound, ClassNotFoundException, or FieldNotFound errors, ensure that you have the correct version of CraftBukkit for your Citizens version first. See [[Downloads]]
First off, NPC types are now called "characters". These are no longer built-in JARs that you place in the ''/plugins/Citizens/types'' directory. You must download each individual character and place it in the ''/plugins'' folder. You can find out more about many characters on the [[Characters]] page.
 
Otherwise, submit a ticket [http://issues.citizensnpcs.com here].

==How do I get more NPC types?==
NPC types are now called "traits". These are no longer built-in JARs that you place in the ''/plugins/Citizens/types'' directory. You must download each individual character and place it in the ''/plugins'' folder.
 
You can find out more about traits on the [[Characters]] page, or learn how to make your own on the [[API]] page.

The short answer is yes, if you have a recent Minecraft version. For a detailed explanation, see the [[Skins]] page.
