Random Features and Clone Mob Plugins

[trevius]

It has to be a specific NPC, but you can use entity list searches to find any NPC by entity ID or NPC Type ID and then get that NPC and use the plugin on it.

Can this be used by making a .pl for the mod and inserting
Sub EVENT_SPAWN {
plugin::RandomFeatures($npc);
}

will that change them on spawn?
or do i need to include a code to get the $npc variable for each specific mob?

Yes, that is how you use it. The only problem with your solution is that many things don't update properly in EVENT_SPAWN, due to it being handled at the same time the NPC is actually being sent to the client. So, to make it work properly 100% of the time, you can just start a timer from event spawn and set it to something like 1 second. Then, the NPC will spawn and a second later it will change its features randomly. Don't forget to stop the timer in the EVENT_TIMER or you will be changing the random features every second.
