Actor

The Actor plugin/library allows you to create "Actors" which playback pre-recorded actions as an NPC. Great for Machinima or for making your NPCs do exactly what you want. Actors can currently playback exact recordings of the following actions:

• Walking / Movement
• Block Placement / Removal
• Current Item selection
• Chatting

Multiple actors can be active at once. Scenes of actors can be saved to disk and loaded later. Actors can be dubbed into a translated position for crazy effects. See video.

Latest version notes: V0.10

Troupes! Now you can record more than one player at a time. If you have 'troupe' permission you can…

• /actor troupe add playername – add player to your troupe (they will be asked for confirmation and must type 'yes' in response)
• /actor troupe remove playername – remove player from troupe
• /actor troupe show – shows the current players in your troupe

Once your troupe is defined, use '/actor record' like normal but you will now be recording everyone in the troupe. '/actor hire' will hire an actor for every recorded troupe member.

Also in this release:

• /actor rename actorname newname – renames an actor
• minor bug fixes

Demo

Typical Usage / Getting Started

Typically the usage goes like this:

• /actor record
  <run around – place blocks, remove blocks, chat, etc>
• /actor cut
• /actor hire actorname
• /actor action
  <watch the actor do what you just recorded>
• /actor reset
• /actor actionrec
  <you are now playing back the actor and recording at the same time>
• /actor cut
• /actor reset
• /actor action
  <You now see both actors in the scene together>
• /actor savescene scenename

Installation

Put the ActorPlugin.jar into plugins on your server. The first time it is loaded it will create an Actor folder in your plugins dir where all your saved actors and scenes will be created.
