 Parrot
| ||||||||||||||||||||
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
gibberish: "Baaaawk!", # Parrot 'sound effects'
entity: # Used EntityID of chicken to store chatter and clue.
chatter1: "" # Used automatically to store messages heard around it. chatter2: "" # Hence, they shouldn't be changed manually. chatter3: "" chatter4: "" chatter5: "" clue: "The answer is 42." # Stored clue. Can be changed with /parrot clue [message]
Commands
/parrot clue # changes the clue /parrot mute # mutes the parrot (toggleable) /parrot cooldown # changes the cool-down time for talking /parrot range # changes the range of the parrot (cannot be more than 50) /parrot purge # resets the chatter stored in the parrots memory
