Upcoming update: NPC API
I started work last night, on the NPC framework api. I was going to base the code off the mod, NPC Frameworks but then i figured since im making an entire API, why dont i just make my own, since it was already pretty easy to do it. So, i started work on a custom system, winch will also give NPCs pathfinding so they can get to you without you realizing it! There will be 3 types of mobs.
1: ground
This will include things like zombies, caravans, and a ton of other things
2: flying
This will include things like giant flying eyes, bats, harpies, etc...
3: swimming
Swimming will not only be bound to water, i can also make it so there can be a "desert sand worm" winch is a giant worm that swims in the sand in the desert! so, be careful when you go there >: D

Description
This mod is a WIP. The purpose of this mod is to spawn towers in the world, that have loot chests inside them, as well as hostile creatures. The system will be an API, so you can create your own tower types as well. The mod is designed after a popular minecraft mod, battletowers, hince the mod's name, battletowers.
This mod will be a fun mod to play with, with your freinds, however by yourself, it may be a little challenging to take over a tower. Future updates will include things like custom mob spawners, custom mobs, configurable mob spawners, configurable loot chests, and much more. enjoy the mod and have fun!

Hello everyone! i am developing a new mod for minetest, that will bring the minecraft mod, battletowers, to minetest! I just started working on this today, and already got the towers randomly generating in the world! right now mobs do not spawn in them, however I will add spawners and and loot chests into them in the future, so it will be more fun to raid! I will post the progress of battle towers here! I plan to release it within the next few days in open alpha!
