npcAttack(npcId, playerId)

Parameters

Name Type Required Description

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.
  • For bow, crossbow or magic only. Requires drawn mode and resources. May wait/chase until an attempt is possible; stops after release or rejected attempt. Melee uses setNpcCombatTarget. Acceptance does not guarantee hit. Already released projectiles can survive stopping combat.
