Sentry for Citizens2

Table of Contents

Sentry is a character plugin for the NPC plugin Citizens2. With Sentry, NPC's can be set to guard areas or act as bodyguards. Hostile targeting, retaliation, and a variety of options and stats allow a Sentry NPC to be customized to almost any guarding or combat situation.

Features

Sentries Can:

Attack monsters, players, and groups automatically. Sentry also has built-in support for Factions, Towny, War and SimpleClans
Kill, and be killed by, players, monsters, and the environment.
Guard locations, paths, players, or other NPCs.
Use ranged or melee weapons. Shoot arrows, fireballs, snowballs, eggs, lightning, and potions with deadly accuracy.
Be configured with stats such as Strength, Health, Armor, Speed, Range and even Night Vision!
Ride mounts!
Work with Denizen to become Bosses and Quest NPCs that run scripts upon death.

Installation

Install Citizens2 You must use the correct version for your version of Bukkit
Download the correct Sentry from the Citizens Wiki. You must use the correct version for your version of Bukkit
Place Sentry.jar in your minecraft /plugins/ directory. Start your server.
Create a NPC with Citizens and give it the 'sentry' trait.
- ```
 /npc create Town Guard --trait sentry 
```
Customize your Sentry's stats and options and you're ready to go.

A full list of commands and options is available on the Citizens 2 Wiki

Configuration

Sentry makes a config.yml in the plugins/Sentry folder on first load. Use this to tailor Sentry to your server. You can:

Set defaults for new sentries
Change or disable the item used for various attack types
Add potion effects like slow or blindness to certain Sentry weapons.
Add armor, strength and speed buffs to armor and weapons for Sentries.
Set critical hit chances and messages.

The config.yml is commented with instructions.

Once the count of sentries passes 4 (5 and up) the plugin seems to generate exemptions for me...

If you 'deal 0 damage' that is a conflict with Modifyworld, you will have to remove or disable it.

Ohhh... nevermind. I looked and saw the problem right away.. apparently that's been broken since 0.9.9.1 and no one told me :(

Should be fixed in 1.0.2, available on the wiki page, should be up here soon.

Do you get the 'Sentry has successfully registered with Towny' message on server startup?

I don't use Towny myself so maybe they have changed something.

I've been trying to set the target and ignore on town settings "/sentry target add town:test" and nothing happens. The same goes for the ignore. I have the latest of Citizens, Towny, and Sentry. All I get is confirmation that the target was added but the NPC doesn't act as it should.

I have had an issue in which combat with player vs. NPC causes the server to completely crash. It seems like it happens mostly with melee combat. I can give crash report if you need it. It happens 100% of the time when combat lasts more than a couple seconds. I suspect that it is something to do with spout but i wasn't sure if anyone else had this issue...

The conflict would come on my server "Heroes" is to know what is on your side or their I gotta see if the problem is solvable?
It should be against those who have residence or multiverse core well put pvp authorized

In any case thank you for your comments :)

I cannot fix this. You will have to remove Modifyworld.

Ok but I did not on the server. But I counted against Correct you put this conflict soon? Here is the sentence spoken by the NPC when I throw a potion (when I hit the hands they do not post): you hit for 0 damage Novusek

If you get the message 'You deal 0 damage' this is due to a conflict with the plugin Modifyworld.

You will have to use Citizens build 375 until Sentry is updated
