GlymeraLivingDeco — Your Decoration Comes Alive

Five of Hytale's decorative props wake up and walk your world: the Scarecrow, the Training Dummy (arrow removed), the Snowman, the Kweebec Plushie and the pink Harvest Trophy. Every one of them exists in two temperaments:

• Friendly — peaceful wanderers on Kweebec behavior. They stroll around, never attack, and wave at players who come close. The plushies even squeak like the squeaky toy they are. Friendly variants are silent otherwise (like real Kweebecs).
• Haunted — the same models possessed by full Zombie combat AI: they chase, they hit (18 damage, 49 HP), the big ones growl like the undead and the small ones hiss with a nasty little void-critter voice.

The models and textures are 1:1 the game's own decoration assets — they look exactly like the props you place, just… moving.

Natural spawning (fully configurable)

Out of the box, only the friendly variants spawn naturally — in the overworld surface biomes, at about half the spawn rate of GlymeraSaurians. The haunted ones are strictly opt-in.

config.json (in the plugin's data folder):

• worldWhitelist — natural spawning happens ONLY in the worlds listed here. Ships with "default" active plus two harmless placeholder names (shadowrealm, crystal_caves) that show you the format — replace them with your own world names.
• spawns — one true/false switch per NPC (all 10 listed). The total spawn rate is fixed and always spreads across every NPC set to true: disabling some makes the others more common, not rarer. All false = no natural spawns at all.
• Changes apply live with /gscare reload — no restart needed.

Naturally spawned NPCs despawn with their chunk like ambient wildlife and never clutter your world save. Command-spawned ones are permanent — perfect for placing a waving scarecrow next to your farm.

Commands (OP-only)

• /gscare — spawn a haunted Scarecrow
• /gscare dummy / snowman / plush / trophy — the other haunted ones
• /gscare friendly — spawn a friendly Scarecrow
• /gscare friendly dummy / snowman / plush / trophy — the other friendly ones
• /gscare clear — remove everything you command-spawned
• /gscare reload — reload config.json

Notes

• No new blocks or items — the plugin only adds NPCs, so it is safe to add and remove at any time.
• Works with the decorative props still placed as blocks; those are untouched.
• First join after installing: the client rebuilds its asset cache once (1–2 minutes).
