Comes Alive (HCA)

Villagers with their own name, face and personality — that you can befriend, marry, hire and raise a family with, in villages you build, rank up and govern by decree.

ComesAlive brings the spirit of Minecraft Comes Alive to Hytale, rebuilt from scratch on Hytale's own systems. Villagers stop being scenery: every one of them is a person with a face, a character, a home and a family — and the village they live in is yours to grow and to rule.

Villagers with a life of their own

• Every villager is generated as a **human with their own appear surname, and stays that way — their looks are stored and resto
• 15 personalities and 18 traits (athletic, left-handed, het lactose intolerant, dwarfism, infertile…). Traits are inheri children.
• Five age stages, from baby to adult. Children really grow up over time, and grown children can marry and have children of their own.
• Orientation is part of who they are, and it is mutual: who is decided by both sides, never assumed.
• You have a character sheet too. The first villager you mee your sex, who you are drawn to, and your own traits. It decide your affection — and what your children will inherit.

Talk to them, and they will remember

• Press F on any villager to open their page: affinity, pati character and traits.
• Seven social interactions — chat, tell a joke, ask for a s kiss, apologise — and what they answer depends on their person and whether you have already asked them the same thing five ti
• Give them anything. Gifts are matched by item family, so flowers, jewels, coins, food, fish, weapons and metals all land differently depending on who receives them. A greedy villager loves gold; a peaceful one do sword.
• No cooldown timers. They simply grow tired of you, and the on their page.

Marriage and children — with villagers and with other playe

• Marry a villager: court them, get engaged, and marry them with a dowry.
• Marry another player: /ca marry <player> sends a proposal they answer with /ca accept. A marriage is a decision of two, so it can never one keyboard. Your new family even gets its own surname, a yours will carry it.
• Have children with your spouse, villager or player alike: name and care for** until they grow up.
• Children inherit from both parents. Face, height and trait has may pass on, what both parents have passes more easily. Two short parents will very likely have a short child.
• Infertility is real. If either parent carries the trait, t have no children — and the game says so plainly instead of qui
• Villagers also fall in love with each other on their own, children — the village grows without you.
• A navigable family tree that knows about players: it shows when both of them are players, and even when one is offline.

Build a village

• Stand inside a finished house and register it. Validation is h be closed by walls and a roof, with a bed inside — no invi
• Nine building types, recognised by what you put in them: h smithy, armoury, tannery, library, laboratory, kitchen.
• Your village is your land claim: widen the claim and the v it.
• Earn standing in it — from Outcast to Mayor — and it t the affinity of the people and what you have built. A village full of empty houses will not promote you.

And then govern it

• Your standing sets how many villagers the village can hold Notable upward it holds as many as you can house.
• Decrees, unlocked as you rank up: raise or forbid the **bi regulate *_weddings_*, open or close the gates to *_travellers_*, and impose a *_curfew_*.
• Inns attract travellers you can offer a life in the villag say no.
• A villager walked into another village will work out for themselves whether there is room for them there.

Give them something to do

• Orders: follow me, wait here, come here, carry on, assign
• Hire a lumberjack and the work is real: they walk to a tre bring you the timber. They will not touch anyone else's land, paying their wages, they stop working — and remember it.
• They sleep in their own bed at night, sit down on chairs when there is nothing to do, and open doors on their way.

Getting started

2. Claim some land — that is your village.
3. Use the contract inside it, and someone will join you.
4. Craft the Village Register at the Workbench (Tools tab) to manage buildings, residents and decrees.
