Hello!

This plugin allows a user to create a custom NPCs. NPCs by default will clone a user's skin upon creation if a skin name is not applied. Players can supply entity names to mask it's skin and apply to an NPC. The NPC's location is then saved in a data.yml file to be reused after a server is shut down. The NPC will also display a message when the player clicks on the NPC. Each spawned NPC can have their own custom message. The messages are changeable within the given data.yml.

Installation:

Download jar per your spigot version.
Place jar in plugin folder for your server.
Upon server load data.yml will be created and stored in your server plugin directory under a new folder named: NpcMain.

Usage:
In game admin must enter /createnpc to create a NPC. NPC will mirror the current player skin you are wearing. The NPC can also accept entity names and mirror their skins. The NPC will spawn at your location.

Name your NPC:
1. Change the name in the data.yml

2. Enter the name after the /createnpc command

BE AWARE! Minecraft only allows a 16 character limit per naming, Attempts to exceed the 16 characters when naming an NPC will result in the plugin telling the user the string is too long. If the data.yml name contains a name over 16 characters issues may arise. In simple, stay under the limit.

Set up NPC:
Navigate to data.yml and change the text area for (message: changeme)
Reload server to see instant changes.

Delete NPC:

Two options:
1. Use in game command /destroynpc npcname

2. Navigate to data.yml and delete the NPC fields for the NPC you wish to delete.
Field example to delete:
'1':
x: -157
y: 64
z: -118
p: 15.899899
yaw: 153.44925
world: world
