SummonLib 1.2.0 — Changelog

Features

• Summon NPCs are now stable and fully functional
  • They should be 100% working now, but there may still be edge cases — please report any issues you find.
• New: NPC Role Summons
  • Create a summon with follow/attack AI based on an NPC Role Variant.
  • You can customize attack and movement animations.
  • A guide for this will be added to the wiki soon.
• New stat: Summon Damage
  • Increases the damage dealt by the player’s summons.
• Improved aggro behavior
  • Any non-passive entity hit by a summon will now target the summon’s owner directly.
• Summon configuration overhaul
  • Summon configs have been redesigned to be (hopefully) much simpler.
  • ⚠️ This may break compatibility with older configs (hopefully the last breaking change).

Improvements

• AssetPack handling updates
  • A separate AssetPack is still required for now until Hytale changes how dependencies are loaded.
  • The .jar plugin now extracts its AssetPack automatically so you don’t need to install anything else.
  • Update checks are now file-based (verifies specific required files instead of only checking if the folder exists), helping prevent broken updates.
• Stat naming polish
  • MaxMinions has been renamed to Max Minions (spaced) for better readability in toolbars.

Showcase / Example Mod

• Nightwing Summons (demo project)
  • A small demonstration mod built to showcase Summon NPCs.
  • Currently under review (models are basic — I’m not great at modeling yet).

Notes

• Please report any issues, bugs, or suggestions — it helps a lot and is greatly appreciated.
