I would like sentries to know and assist players in fighting monsters as well as defend chickens and villagers (from griefing players or monsters)

@tronman2020 - Sentry's in a pretty poor state right now -- flickering between two differently broken versions, the main dev hasn't been online in several months and when he comes on he does a bare minimum update and disappears again, the main dev also refuses outside contribution... we (as in, myself and the other Citizens sub-plugin devs, particularly the Denizen group) are thinking of replacing Sentry entirely at this point. I recommend you look into Denizen -> http://wiki.citizensnpcs.co/Denizen -> which is the NPC scripting plugin... it shouldn't be difficult to work up a script that will do what you want here, as it's unlikely to be added to Sentry itself any time soon, if ever.

oh dang thanks for letting me in on that man, i thought this was alive and healthy. Does denizen support same things as sentry? guarding and such

mcmonkey4eva commented 10 years ago

@tronman2020 - Denizen is a scripting plugin, it doesn't have any built-in guard/fight/etc code, though you can make combat happen through scripts. But just to make it easy, you could leave Sentry to handle most of it, just have a script that listens for players attacking mobs and commands Sentry's to attack or assist as needed.

Oh thats legit ill be sure to check it out. I hope this one sentry error some how gets fixed though. Seems whether i upgrade or downgrade i get errors. This one im fighting seems to be the lesser of the many
