Friendly NPCs
These NPCs have different names, character stories, different travel ways, different functions and are unkillable.
You can talk with them, make them play music or just trade with them. Depending on what they can or not.
They will travel special areas (the whole map, just a city and so on) and are saved in the database.
Enemy NPCs
These NPCs are placed within the map and travel a from the mapper's set area in meters.
If you walk too near to them they will trigger and start to attack you. They do not friendly damage other NPCs.

You have 15 minutes to complete the blue building or it will purge. Finished buildings will stay as long as they are not destroyed or as long as the server is not restarted.
Buildings cost gold as well and some need a repair hammer to be finished.

Hello,
a lot of people did ask me if I could make Kingdom of Andria open-source. After struggeling and thinking about it I did decide to make that. Kingdom of Andria has a lot of unique and never existing features which can improve all MP mods massively. Maybe someone want to make a new Kingom of Andria version of it.
The OSP package includes the whole Module System and compiled scripts. Also it contains the backend and a SQL dump. You maybe need to adjust some things cause I think it's not 100% sure the newest database version. But those small changes shouldn't be a big deal. Use the Andria 1.1 Version module next to the MS. Don't use an older KoA version.
If you are using the OSP make sure to use all credits of the Kingdom of Andria credits. Also embed:
"Using Kingdom of Andria OSP - by Illuminati/Dominic/domipoppe".
OSP Package: https://www.moddb.com/mods/kingdom-of-andria/downloads/koa-osp-package
Newest Module (1.1): https://www.moddb.com/mods/kingdom-of-andria/downloads/koa-11-full-version
I hope you like what I am doing.
Regards,
Dominic/Illuminati
