I was looking for some extra background characters for my kids minetest server (3-14yrs) and came accross this mod.
Pro's:
You can have a few people in your village going around doing basic work. This makes the town looked alive !!
Crop Farmer works
Herb Gatherer works
Snow Clearer works
Lumberjack works ( though leaves the tops )
Con's:
Fiddly to set up the characters
A couple of non fatal bugs ( except when using building_signs )
I was so impressed with the possibilitys of this mod, that I added a few extra Job roles and fixed a few minor bugs.
Added Animal Vet
Goes around looking for your animals that need some TLC, then heals them.
Added Lawn Cutter
Goes around making sure your lawns are kept trim
Added Flower Picker
Goes around Picking Flowers
Fixed Farmer to only work on tilled land ( no more picking wild plants )
Fixed Farmer to work with all known plants from Farming Redo and Ethereal NG
Fixed Herb Gatherer to work with all known plants from Farming Redo and Ethereal NG
Fixed Herb Gatherer to only pick wild plants ( no more robbing the fields )
Added a basic close range pathing check to stop the majority of getting stuck
Added a drop check to prevent walking down where they cannot get back
Added Allowed Paddling in shallow water but allowed no deeper ( no swimming )
Fixed Most Door Usage in game, still need to look at the home door search Function ( though the quick fix can make the character warp through the door, no biggie )
Is this Mod still under development ? or has it been left with the consideration of using either Creatura or Mobs ?

All in all worth the look !
