Module:Npcinfo/doc

This module is used to obtain the base statistics of an NPC. It should only be used in templates and the like; use {{getNpcInfo}} in article text.

It can calculate NPC stats for different stages/modes of the game (Classic / Expert pre-Hardmode / Expert Hardmode / Expert post-Plantera / Master pre-Hardmode / Master Hardmode / Master post-Plantera).

The code is synchronized with version .4.2. of Terraria.

Usage

{{#invoke:Npcinfo | getInfo | id = <npcid> | prefix = <prefix for variables> (optional) }}</nowiki>

id

NPC id. Can be -1 to -65 or 1 to 662. (76/146/408 are unused)

prefix

The prefix for the output variables. Default is _npcinfo_. For example, the default variable name for damage is _npcinfo_damage. If $prefix was set to my_, the variable name would be my_damage.

Statistics

Invoking this module sets a number of DPL variables, one for each stat. They can be retrieved via {{#[[[:Template:Tl/parser function links]]##dplvar dplvar]:<prefix><stat>}}, e.g.

1. dplvar:_npcinfo_defense for the defense stat with the default $prefix. The following table contains the most important stats:

dplvar (without prefix)	Content
aiStyle	The ID of the AI that the NPC uses.
banner	The item ID of the enemy banner that the NPC drops.
boss	The internal flag that determines whether the NPC is considered a boss. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
buffImmune	A comma-separated list of de-/buffs the NPC is immune to.
buffImmuneAll	Whether the NPC is immune to all de-/buffs. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
buffImmuneAllNotWhips	Whether the NPC is immune to all de-/buffs, except whip debuffs. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
coldDamage	Whether the NPC is affected by the Warmth buff. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
friendly	Whether the NPC is a friendly NPC (e.g. a town NPC or critter). (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
housingCategory	1 if the NPC is a town pet, 0 otherwise.
internalName	Internal name of the NPC.
lavaImmune	Whether the NPC takes damage from lava. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
netID	ID of the NPC, the value of the $id parameter.
noGravity	Whether the NPC is unaffected by gravity. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
noTileCollide	Whether the NPC can move freely through tiles. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
npcSlots	Number of NPC slots that the NPC occupies. See NPC spawning for explanation.
rarity	Rarity level of the NPC for the Lifeform Analyzer.
townNPC	Whether the NPC is a town NPC. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
trapImmune	Whether the NPC is completely unaffected by all traps. (<empty> = false, 1 = true)
type	"Type ID" of the NPC. For a positive NPC ID, it is equal to netID. For a negative NPC ID, it is the ID of the corresponding "master" variant (e.g. 1 (Blue Slime) for -3 (Green Slime)).
HitSound	File name (without file extension, but it is usually .wav) of the sound effect that is played when this NPC takes damage (or reflects a projectile). Note that the listed sound is only the base sound; it might be played with modified pitch and volume in-game.
DeathSound	File name (without file extension, but it is usually .wav) of the sound effect that is played when this NPC dies. Note that the listed sound is only the base sound; it might be played with modified pitch and volume in-game.
damage damage_e damage_e_hm damage_e_pp damage_m damage_m_hm damage_m_pp	Damage, defense, knockback resistance, and maximum health values for Classic, Expert pre-Hardmode, Expert Hardmode, Expert post-Plantera, Master pre-Hardmode, Master Hardmode, and Master post-Plantera, respectively. The knockBackResist values are the original values as in the source code, the value displayed in {{npc infobox}}es on the wiki is (1 - knockBackResist).
defense defense_e defense_e_hm defense_e_pp defense_m defense_m_hm defense_m_pp
knockBackResist knockBackResist_e knockBackResist_e_hm knockBackResist_e_pp knockBackResist_m knockBackResist_m_hm knockBackResist_m_pp
lifeMax lifeMax_e lifeMax_e_hm lifeMax_e_pp lifeMax_m lifeMax_m_hm lifeMax_m_pp
value value_e value_e_hm value_e_pp value_m value_m_hm value_m_pp	Coins dropped for Classic, Expert pre-Hardmode, Expert Hardmode, and Expert post-Plantera, respectively. Counted in Copper Coins.

In addition, a variable named _fields is set. It contains the names of all available statistics.
