NPC Hunt (BETA/Early Access)

Join the official X3NAddons Discord Community for updates & support: https://discord.gg/USukDAH7Cu


This addon enhances NPC behavior by allowing hostile and friendly NPCs to hear and react to each other as well as players. Hostile NPCs will pursue players and good NPCs, while good NPCs (such as citizens) will respond to hostile NPCs and players. NPCs react to gunfire, footsteps, and explosions, creating a dynamic and immersive AI environment on your server. Works in single-player, LAN, and multiplayer servers.

Important Note: NPCs only respond to predefined factions. Hostile NPCs chase players and good NPCs; good NPCs chase hostile NPCs and players. Footsteps, gunshots, and explosions are automatically detected.

Compatibility Warning: This addon may not work properly with scripted or custom NPCs that have specialized AI behavior. It is best used with standard Half-Life 2 and similar NPCs.

---

• Faction Interaction: Hostile and good NPCs respond to each other and to players.
  
• Dynamic Sound Awareness: NPCs detect footsteps, gunfire, and explosions to locate targets.
  
• Memory System: NPCs remember the last known positions of their targets for a configurable duration.
  
• Line-of-Sight & FOV: NPCs only see targets within a configurable vision cone and line-of-sight.
  
• Automatic Pursuit: NPCs chase players or opposing faction NPCs when detected, then investigate last known positions if line-of-sight is lost.
  
• Server Ready: Works in single-player, LAN, and multiplayer servers without additional setup.
