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


Mimics are an attempt to bring some RPG elements to Minecraft using Citizens2. Mimics can be just for fun, or be used with questing to hold clues. Enderdragon parrots, anybody? (Joking! Probably not a good idea!)

Mimics randomly store messages said in the local area and repeat them back. Mimics can also hold a clue, information that it keeps and blurts out with the normal chatter it has heard for a great element to any RPG puzzle.

Creating a Mimic

Parrots work best with chickens.

 /npc create [name] --char mimic 

Features

Fully customizable Mimic types. Comes standard with a Parrot, Slime Mimic, and Village Idiot.


Settings (and defaults)

Below is the standard configuration with notes.

click-cooldown-in-seconds: 5
chatter-range: 25             # Distance from Mimic needed to be to hear it.
                              #   (Recommended 10-30)

      - "It's a parrot."
      - "You pet the parrot. *BAAAWK!*"
    texts:            # Texts that trigger randomly.
      - "A parrot squacks, '<text>'"
      - "'<text>' ...is that a parrot?"
      - "You hear a parrot nearby, '*SQUAK*!'"
      - "You hear a parrot nearby, '<text>'"
      - "*BRR BRR BRR* ...is that a parrot?"
      - "*BAAAWK* *BAAAWK*"

      - "You slug the Village idiot in the arm. *OUCH!*"
      - "The Village Idiot says to you, 'text'"
    texts:
      - "'Yarharrrharr!' ...what the heck was that?"
      - "The village idiot says, '<text>' ...does that even make sense?"
      - "'<text>' says the Village Idiot, in a drunken slur."

  Slime Mimic:
    click:
      - "It's a jelly-like block of slime. Yuck!"
      - "The slime is filled with all kinds of stuff. Who knows where its been?"

      - "You hear a slime mimic nearby, '<text>'"
      - "*SQUISH* *SQUISH*"

Note: As Mimics are created and interacted with, another section will populate in the config.yml. This should be configured in-game with commands.

Commands
