MyNPC 1.1 Changelog

Version 1.1

This update rebuilds a large part of the custom NPC workflow and fixes several stability issues found during testing.

Added

• Added a new dynamic NPC manager opened with H.
• Added editable NPC pages for appearance, behavior, known structures, trades, and chat.
• Added support for custom skins and custom sounds from the config asset folders.
• Added searchable structure selection lists with single-select and multi-select behavior.
• Added custom trade editing, scroll trade editing, structure hint text editing, and per-structure prices.
• Added automatic structure detection for structure lists.
• Added random equipment for NPCs, including weapons and armor.
• Added NPC combat behavior:
  • Retaliates when attacked.
  • Actively attacks nearby hostile mobs.
  • Avoids creepers.
  • Plays a visible attack swing animation.

Changed

• Default guide NPC settings now come from one shared default template.
• Resetting a custom NPC now restores the same default settings used by the built-in guide NPC, while keeping a unique entity id.
• The built-in guide NPC naturally spawns in villages, with one guide per village area.
• Spawned guides stay near their home structure instead of wandering away freely.
• Right-click interaction still freezes the NPC during GUI use so trades are not interrupted.
• Structure and trade selection screens now place main action buttons at the bottom.
• Right-click inquiry and trade GUIs were redesigned to use clearer text areas, lists, and scrolling.

Fixed

• Fixed custom skins not applying correctly in some cases.
• Fixed custom sounds failing to resolve from the custom asset folder.
• Fixed the game hanging or freezing during world generation from heavy spawn checks.
• Fixed repeated NPC spawning in the same village.
• Fixed NPC GUI staying open after the NPC dies or is removed.
• Fixed reset defaults being different from the built-in default NPC.
• Fixed several UI clipping, overlap, scrolling, and button layout issues.

Notes

• Existing config files are not deleted automatically. If you want the new default village_guide.json, remove the old one from config/npc_types and restart the game.
• This version is for Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.x.
