Description: A parrot (chicken) NPC that can be used for fun or for clues.
`Installing Character Types`

Parrots can be just for fun, or be used with questing to hold clues, and are meant to be used on Chicken NPCs, though could technically be any kind. Enderdragon parrots, anybody? (Joking! Probably not a good idea!)

Parrots randomly store messages said in the local area and repeat them back. Parrots can also be fed a clue, information that it keeps and blurts out with the normal chatter it has heard.

Features

Parrots hold 5 messages automatically by listening to surrounding chatter. Parrots hold 1 message fed by the parrot owner.

Settings (and defaults)

cooldown-in-seconds: 60   # number of seconds MINIMUM that the parrot can say something
chatter-range: 25         # radius (in blocks) that the player can hear parrots
                          # also the number of blocks that the parrot can hear players

chatter:     # Parrot 'sound effects'
  - '*BAAAWK!*'
  - '*BrrrBrrrBrrr*'
  - '*SQUAK!*'

Commands

/parrot clue [text] # changes the clue
