What does an npc do?

[Ickycoolboy]

in the misc catagory there is a npc spawner.

1. how do i spawn the npc after placing this?
2.What do the spawned npcs do?

1) it spawns it automatically, you do not have to actually do anything.
2) they do nothing. they just stand around, although on enemy ships in missions and on some during the campaign they will shoot at you and sit in chairs and stuff.

I imagine in an update you will be able to get npcs to drive your boats and fire guns as well as fight with hand weapons, all as an alternative to the AI system for ships. Plus i bet you will be able to trade them and stuff

i noticed something while playing, the npc never spawns after placing down the npc spawner

They do this, you just need to allow them to do it, however they don't work well with an AI Mainframe, since the AI Mainframe is trying to do it's programming.

Yes, they were just running around shooting your own ship (no failsafe...) anyway.

It's either you, or you tried spawning REALLY big machines, ever thought of that?

[Nathan the Dwarven Shark]

The NPCs could operate weapons. (Such as Advanced Cannons, CRAMS...)
