Minecraft Mod
Single player mod for Minecraft to emulate the playable character being a King.
At first the goal is to program all roles, then the rouge-like elements will be added.
Milestones Reached:
- Reimplementation of FakePlayer class from Fabric
- Enables more realistic simulation of the FakePlayer
- Custom MoveControl for our FakePlayer
- Enables movement (FakePlayer does not derive from PathAwareEntity, so requires custom MoveControl)
- A* Pathing MovementController for FakePlayer
- Enables pathing to a specific block with obstacle avoidance with jumping
- If you want to use this in your own project, look at MovementController.java
- Command to spawn a FakePlayer
- Command to assign a role to a FakePlayer
- Reimplementation of Goal system for our FakePlayer
- Minecraft has a Goal system for MobEntities, but FakePlayer derives from PlayerEntity
- Serializing/Deserializing Kingdoms and Citizens (FakePlayer) with world saves
- Allows for FakePlayer to have a persistent state
- Allows for abstract organization of Kingdoms and Citizens to have a persistent state
NPC Goal Mechanics
- Each NPC has a role
- Depending on the role, Goals are assigned to the NPC in order of priority
- Each Goal is a state machine
- Every tick, the Goal's state machine returns a new state, and then we tick that state.
- This allows for different stages of a Goal to be separated but still tightly bound within a Goal.

I haven't used Java on a daily basis since 2018. I'm sure there are better ways to do things, but I'm just trying to get something working.
