There is currently an issue with Hytale's Update 3 where the server will fail to load with the mod installed. The solution to this is just checking the "skip mod validation" in the world settings. I'm working on fixing this properly though.

NPCs:

The Escape from Tarkov mod currently adds Prapor to the game, who will sell you guns, and buy gunpowder, all for life essence.

Prapor can be spawned by crafting a spawn egg from the HyRise workbench:

Weapons:

The mod adds several functioning guns as well:

the Blunderbuss

The blunderbuss is a vanilla Hytale weapon that is added to the game and rebalanced with this mod. You can obtain the blunderbuss by trading with tarkov, and it requires the firing gloves to fire.

the VPO-209 Carbine

The VPO is crafted with 50 iron, 50 copper, 200 logs and 2 repair kits. It has a very slow rate of fire, but fairly high damage. At the moment it only shoots crude arrows. Custom bullets will be added in future updates.

The Mouser C96 pistol, is a small firearm with low damage and a high rate of fire. At the moment it only shoots crude arrows. Custom bullets will be added in future updates.

Check out the full mod!

Like the rest of HyRise, this mod is still under development. The actual barters right now are placeholders until I have a more fleshed out collection of custom items.
