AiEnabled is a total NPC inclusion mod that aims to spice up your gameplay by providing you with companions to aid you as well as enemies to hunt you. All NPCs use custom pathfinding logic to perform their assigned role. As ideas flow and time permits, I'll be adding more NPCs to keep things interesting! If you want to have random encounters with hostile NPCs, this is handled via Modular Encounters Systems. MES is not required, but strongly recommended! Note that spiders and wolves are turned OFF by this mod due to the impact it has on spawning AiEnabled bots. If you want to keep using spiders and wolves, you will need to use the Planet Creature Spawner mod from MES. In addition to MES, there are a number of addons and other mods that generate random encounters. These are found on the AiEnabled Discord! Come check out the #mod-addons channel for details :) Want to check out a ready-made scenario world? Check here for the refinery scenario that was showcased on Xoc's dev stream :) Leave a comment to let me know what you think, and I hope you enjoy :)
Simply add this mod to your save and you'll gain access to the RoboFactory and Bot Spawner blocks. These are used for spawning friendly and enemy bots, respectively. See below for further details on how everything works!
Check the GUIDE for the full list of features and other info :)
Some additional information can be found on the AiEnabled Wiki for those looking to use the mod as a framework
