📋 About This Mod
This is not a mod, but a mod library that will be used by my mods. It contains setup for an AI brain that is easier to setup than the ones in game so it is useful for modding. You can also use it for an AI if you are making a mod and don't want to decipher the bullshit that is npc_daycycles.xml, just credit me

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 1,089 endorsements and 65k+ downloads — clearly a go-to for modders.
- Saves you from wrestling with npc_daycycles.xml — this library handles the AI setup for you.
- Active development history shows the author cares: multiple fixes and improvements over time.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020 — might be outdated for the current game version, so test before relying on it.
- It's a library, not a standalone mod — you need modding knowledge to actually use it.
For 7 Days to Die modders who want to add custom NPCs without dealing with the game's messy AI configs. If you're a player looking for gameplay content, this isn't for you — it's a tool for creators. Skip if you're not comfortable with modding code.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using this with other mods, check load order — libraries like this should load before mods that depend on it.
- Since it's a library, you'll need to reference it in your own mod's code; look at the changelog for behavior tree details.
- Test with a simple NPC first to see how the AI behaves before building complex scenarios.
