Human NPC's

Human NPCs came 3rd in the 2019 ARK Mod Contest

Human NPCs add Humans to the world of Ark. You can tame them, they like to eat most things.

Human NPC villages can be protected by X Plants, (Off by Default) - This can be turned on by adding TurretsAllowed=1 in the GUS settings under [Human_NPCs] Some Human NPC villages can grow into towns now.

Human NPC's now send out raiding parties to attack player bases. (You can put a No NPC attack sign at your base to prevent your base from being attacked)

--GameUserSettings--

--GameUserSettings.ini Setup-- link

Tame NPCs can guard your land and as they patrol it or while set in turret mode they can collect resources that are in the area as well as look after your crops.

They will look after your Forge, Campfires, Cook Meat, Put the correct stuff into Preserving Bin and Crop Plots and even catch fish.

NPCs can be set Friendly, Savage or somewhere in between They are here to stay so you will just have to get used to them

Please respect their culture -

Wild NPCs believe

All Thieves should be killed on sight. They now can grow X Plants for protection against Players (Off by Default). Killing children is BAD so they do not breed.

Just add the MOD and your ready to go and if you need to tune it then adjust the GameUserSettings.ini

--Resource Management--

NOTE -- Harvest Resources must be enabled

To get them to harvest go to the menu select Harvesting and enable harvest resources Then select Send Harvesting then select the range you want them to stay around.

They will not harvest if they are set to follow. They will start as soon as you get them to not follow. Even if they leave the area chasing enemies they will return back to where they were told to harvest. To get them to harvest in a new area just take them to the area and tell them to harvest again

While the NPCs are harvesting they will go to their respective storage items and deposit items and resources that they have harvested. The NPCs will also remove made items and transfer items to where they go, Cooked Meat to Preserving Bin, Iron Ingots to Storage Box and so on.
