Started stubbing out the NPC AI item. It’ll be an item you can place down to spawn NPCs that move around. They have alliances (friend, foe, or neutral) and you can use IO to tell them to go to a location, or wander, or follow players. If they are an enemy they will seek and chase players and attack them with adjustable damage values. You can adjust their movement speed. They also have health and can be killed. The NPC AI item will let you spawn multiple of the same NPC with an adjustable limit.

ou can customize the NPC just like a normal NPC, with workshop support and eventually dialogue support as well (for friendly NPCs).
Won’t be ready for next update, but work has begun on it.

NPCs can also use buttons when asked to, more interactions such as weapon support is in development.

IT’S HAPPENING! Awesome work devs!
