NPC Editor Early Prototype Preview
We're sharing an early prototype preview of the NPC Editor, a temporary, contracted, standalone tool for creating and editing NPC behavior templates without hand-writing JSON. It was built to help us move faster on NPC development and is not the official editor we'll be maintaining long-term. It has only had minimal testing so far, so expect bugs and rough edges. That said, it should tremendously speed up NPC creation compared to raw JSON editing, and it serves as a strong foundation for the final unified editor that will come later.
What is it?
The NPC Editor is a standalone NPC template editor. Instead of working directly with raw JSON descriptors, you get a structured UI for building and modifying NPC behavior - states, transitions, sensors, actions, and everything else that makes up an NPC template.
It can open and edit all current NPC templates and makes creating new templates and variants, working with compatibility, and other common NPC tasks significantly easier.
Key features include:
- NPC behavior editor with state visualization and quick navigation
- Full support for creating new templates, variants, and NPC asset components
- In-editor and inline validation
- Autocomplete for compute expressions
- Visibility of available component parameters directly in templates
- Full documentation for all element types in-editor
- Copy/paste and undo/redo support
- Works with all existing NPC template formats
- Designed to use NPC descriptor files generated from the server to fully support modded NPC elements
- Light and dark mode
What this is (and isn't)
This was originally built as temporary contracted work, as an internal prototype to help speed up NPC development and to explore what a good NPC editing experience could look and feel like. It is not the official Hytale NPC editor - that will eventually be part of the asset editor - but we figured it's useful enough that modders should have access to it now rather than waiting.
Think of it as an interim tool that's good enough to get real work done today.
Support & Maintenance
We'll fix bugs and perform general maintenance on this tool as needed, but this is not a long-term supported product. There is no guaranteed update schedule, and it will eventually be superseded by official modding tools directly built into the Asset Editor of the game.
Right now, there is no version for Linux & Mac as the purpose of this tool is workflow exploration rather than technical quality.
That said, your feedback directly shapes the official tools. The more you use this and tell us what works and what doesn't, the better the real thing will be.
What we need from you
- Test it out. Try creating NPCs, editing existing templates, and pushing it to see where it breaks. Communicate with other community members and drive needs via our modding ambassador.
- Report bugs. If something is critically wrong you should let us know but given what it is, we expect most bugs to resolve through internal development over time.
- Share feedback. What's useful? What's confusing? What's missing? This all feeds into the design of our official modding tools. You can use the feedback form on our website at https://t.co/KAfqmAXC8S
@ThinkSludge I have been having trouble trying to find people on new servers. I ran a poll on the youtube and 75% played singleplayer more than multiplayer. I think servers in general need some more promotion or there need to be a few servers that pop off to bring new players to multiplayer.
🤩 - QUE ISSO! MOD DE MOVIMENTAÇÃO ABSOLUTAMENTE INSANO NO HYTALE!
O modder narwhals (u/Uniwhalpaca) criou o mod: Zephyr, um mod inspirado em Apex Legends que adiciona movimentação estilo ninja/acrobática dentro do Hytale… e tá simplesmente absurdo.
Ele adiciona dashes e dash jumps, double jump, wall jump com impulso real (você bate na parede e reflete a velocidade pra se jogar de volta), além de um sistema de grappling!
O gancho não é só puxar e pronto: ele pode puxar entidades, te girar em volta de cantos, ou te lançar na direção baseada nas teclas WASD que você estiver pressionando.
Sério…mano... os mods estão ficando incríveis, isso não faz nenhum sentido!
