Bot System
Vintage Story comes with some rudimentary interface to control creatures and humanoids through commands, which is mostly aimed for recordings. Here's how to use it:
1. Spawn in a bot. Only some creatures are supported, here's a list:
- /entity spawn playerbot
- /entity spawn animalbot-wolf-male
- /entity spawn animalbot-hyena-male
- /entity spawn animalbot-hyena-female
- /entity spawn animalbot-hyena-pup
- /entity spawn animalbot-chicken-hen
- /entity spawn animalbot-chicken-rooster
- /entity spawn animalbot-chicken-baby
- /entity spawn animalbot-sheep-bighorn-male
- /entity spawn animalbot-sheep-bighorn-female
- /entity spawn animalbot-sheep-bighorn-lamb
- /entity spawn animalbot-locust-corrupt
- /entity spawn animalbot-hare-female-lightgrey
- /entity spawn animalbot-piglet
- /entity spawn animalbot-drifter-normal
- /entity spawn animalbot-drifter-corrupt
- /entity spawn animalbot-drifter-nightmare
2. Right click the creature to select it. You can now tell it to execute commands or define a list of commands to execute in a loop
3. Type one of either commands to execute a command right away Legend: flexiblepos means either x y z coordinates as defined in the coordinate hud, absolute coordinates through =x =y =z or coordinates relative to the player with ~x ~y ~z, you can also do ~ ~ ~ do use exactly the players position.
/npc exec tp flexibleposteleport to given position/npc exec lookat radlook in given direction in radians (0..2PI)/npc exec goto flexiblepos animcode speed [animspeed]walk to given position with given animation, given speed (normal walking speed is about 0.02) and given animation speed (default 1)/npc exec playanim animcodeplayers given animation. Valid ones for animals, if supported by the respective animal: hurt, die, eat, walk, cry, shamble, lowshamble, sleep, sit, listen, hide, idletwitch, drill
4. If you want to bot to run or remember a list of commands replace "exec" with "enq" to enqueue commands:
/npc enq [tp|lookat|goto|playanim] (see args above)/npc startto start command list/npc stopto stop/npc loopto make the bot endlessly loop through his list of commands/npc clearwill clear the command list/npc listshow list of queued commands/npc remove [index]remove command of given index as shown in /npc list/npc updallows you do modify some commands
