Notes
- Server-side only. Mutations require the NPC to belong to the calling resource; getters do not grant control.
- Since 0.1.5. Use the matching 0.1.5 client and server (Protocol 37).
- Use matching updated client and server. See NPC scripting for lifecycle, defaults, combat examples and collision limitations.
- Requires living NPC, drawn supported mode and valid live target. No automatic aggression or retaliation. false stops pursuit/queued preparation and preserves script routes. Already released projectiles may still hit. Targets are players, not NPCs.
