Chat-With-NPC

# Chat-with-NPC    > The mod is still in public test, please submit an issue if you find any problems. If you want to use the latest version, > please compile the source code yourself, see [Build](#8-build). [Chinese Version](https://github.com/Team-Jackdaw/chat-with-NPC/blob/main/docs/README_zh.md) ## 1. Introduction **Chat With NPC** allows players to freely chat with NPCs, who will answer questions based on his setting (Basic Prompt) and the setting of their Groups (Nation, City, Town ,etc.). Suitable for RPG maps or puzzle maps. The NPCs would not change the game rule (if you don't use the advanced features). NPC can also perform some actions based on the chat content if you define it. In the future version, we will add innovative features such as NPCs chatting with each other, NPCs' viewpoints on events, etc., so that NPCs in the same Group can interact with each other. ## 2. How to use Any player can **talk to NPCs by shift+clicking** on them, if the NPC has been registered by OPs. Then the NPC will greet with players. The NPC's speech can be seen by everyone (in the **chat bubble** above their head), or by players within a certain range around NPC (in the **Chat bar**). Any nearby players can **reply to the NPC in the chat bar directly** (or the nearest NPC if there are multiple NPCs near the player).  If you are administrator, see the [Installation](#5-installation) for more information. ## 3. Features 1. Each `NPC` has his own `Instructions`, and he can belong to a `Group`. 2. Each `NPC` will manager their context of the conversation automatically by OpenAI. 3. Each `Group` also has its own `Instructions` to describe them, and can also record some `Event` that can be easy to change. 4. Each `Group` can record a `ParentGroup` until the group's parent group is `Global`, `Global` cannot have a parent group. 5. Each `NPC`'s conversation will combine his own `Instructions`, the context of this conversation (or all the conversation if needMemory is true), the `Intructions` of his `Group` and all its `ParentGroup`, and the content of `Event`. 6. You can define the `Functions` that could be call by the NPC in the conversation. ## 4. Requirements - Minecraft Server 1.19.4 or higher - Fabric Loader 0.12.0 or higher - Fabric API included ## 5.
