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.

I also have that error most of the guys here have, I got the 1.4.6 craftbukkit version (because it obviously doesn't exist a 1.4.7 version yet) and playing on Minecraft 1.4.7, And i've tried to download both citizens for 1.4.6 and 1.4.7 but the same error occurs when I try to set him as a Sentry.. I used this command: /npc create House Guard ~~trait sentry~~

I thank you for the info notes for the next, but I have a small question, is there a way to ensure that the Sentry returns to his location after he killed a mob? Because they scatter around this without returning to their current location. thank you.

Do you think it would be possible to add Heroes support?

If not, would it be possible to just have sentries ignore heroes damage/health modifications?

This would help me out a lot :)

I can't reproduce your problem, event:pvnpc and event:pvsentry work fine for me so long as I'm in range.

@Freejack01

Are you also using spout? I need to see the whole error, use pastebin, please.

Not to repeat it it but I got the same error as Chasingcode on Craftbukkit 1.4.6-r0.1 Citizens 2.0.6 build 661 Sentry 1.3 my concern is I see alot of this:

[SEVERE] Could not pass event EntityDamageByEntityEvent to Sentry v1.3

Then my sentry's start to move like a turtle....in slow motion.

Ya I'm using Spigot 1.4.6 R0.3 which seems to add a few more types of storms with crazy amounts of lightning.

Not sure how you got that, your sentry was hit by lightning? might be a spout thing, I'll try to handle that in the future.

@Nikecow

Check the wiki.

It's case-sensitive, is that your problem?

Hey,

First of all great mod! Loving it so far! had one or two issues which was as easily solved as by just updating. One problem I can't seem to get past, is the guard option. It tells me that I am not in range? I have set the range to 10, so I'm pretty sure I am in the area.

Anyone have a solution to this? Thanks in advance. :)

You're using sentry for 1.4.6 on cb 1.4.7

@xxkvatchxx

Sounds like a conflict with a protection plugin.

@Wrafl

/sentry target add entity:player
