Cheap background populations for Narrative Pro settlements, with schedules and a promotion path to full NPCs.
## Crowdweave Ambient Villagers
Cheap background populations for Narrative Pro settlements, with schedules and a promotion path to full NPCs.
Runs a cheap proxy agent for distant villagers and promotes them to real Narrative Pro NPCs with their activity set intact when the player gets close.
## Highlights
## Narrative Pro modules extended
## Installing into an existing Narrative Pro project
1. Copy `NP_Crowdweave` into `YourProject/Plugins/`. 2. Enable **NP_Crowdweave** in Edit > Plugins, next to Narrative Pro, and restart the editor. 3. Follow the two-page setup guide - one component or one data asset, depending on the feature.
That is the whole installation. Every listing must be a drop-in plugin that extends Narrative Pro and runs against a stock Narrative install.
## Compatibility
## Demonstration listing
Reputation, standing and consequence for Narrative Pro factions - NPCs that remember what you did.
Kestrel Byte Studio is a fictional studio created by the NarrativePro Addons seeder so the storefront, search, compatibility facets, module filters and seller dashboards can be exercised against realistic data. The plugin described above does not exist. Remove every row like it with the demo purge script.

Solid foundation
Dropped this into an existing project and had it working inside an afternoon. Setup was three components and a data asset, and the sample map explained the rest.
Good, with one caveat
Clean code, sensible naming, no mystery Blueprints. Replication actually works on a dedicated server, which is rarer than it should be.
