Factions

A faction is a real thing on the server — name, colour, founder, members — and players join in person rather than by command.

• Recruiter NPC (new role): shows the faction, with Join and Leave.
• Set an NPC to Recruiter and it offers to found a faction if you don't already run one: name, colour, motto, joining fee, open or closed. All editable later from the same NPC.
• The faction lives on the server and a recruiter only points at it, so losing the NPC never costs you the faction — place another and point it at the same one. /faction works with no NPC at all.
• NPCs take sides: point one at a faction from the Role tab and it won't turn on its own people. Fight rivals takes on other factions while leaving the unaffiliated alone.
• Dialogue gains an In faction requirement.

Floating signs

Up to four lines hovering above an NPC — price boards, titles, welcomes. Colours and the %player%/%npc%/%balance% placeholders work, and the balance shown is the reader's own.

NPC combat

• Protect owner: fights whoever its person is fighting, both directions.
• Fight monsters without needing the Guard behaviour, so followers are useful in a fight.
• All combat options grouped on the Moves tab instead of split across two screens.

Fixes

• Mobs used as NPC models animate again — walking and attacking were frozen.
• Modded mobs that never spawn naturally now appear in the model picker.
• The Basic role no longer says the NPC has no job.
• Per-axis NPC size, set from the Move & Rotate panel; the floating name can be nudged up or down.
• Coin and item payouts are cleared from NPCs whose owner isn't an operator — 0.6.0 only did that when an NPC was next saved, so older dialogue kept paying out.
