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.

Yes I think the pathfinding AI for Giants isn't really all there in minecraft code, nothing I can do about it, sorry :( Maybe I'll make it so Giants throw fireballs by default or something.

Dang something has changed in Citizens I didn't know about. Try dropping back a few builds until I can push out an update http://ci.citizensnpcs.com/job/Citizens2/

Edit: Build 738 should remove that error.

Seems to have been a conflict with ModifyWorld, since my melee sentry manages to hit mobs after I removed this. However this error keeps popping up now whenever it's engaging in battle:

Also sounds like a protection plugin conflict

Whenever my NPC sentry has a melee weapon equipped and is attacking a mob, it doesn't hit or deal damage to the target. With a bow, however, it has no problem hitting it's target. So what's causing melee sentries to not deal damage to mobs?

This is usually caused by some kind of protection plugin conflict or perhaps you have PVP turned off at the server level.

@SharkROAR

Try installing citizens2.

I have a problem.. my guards (with sentry trait) do detect players and engage them, but they deal and receive no damage..

This works, however, if they attack monsters.

I also removed my anti-cheat plugin but it still does not work.

AH HA! I had wondered where the sudden rash of people trying to use 1.2.3 came from. Now I know, thanks!

Skeleton sentries will always shoot arrows, bow or not. I can't make them hold bows from within Sentry code.

@Brainiacguy

Whats your version and build number of citizens 2?
