How to make npcs in minecraft?
I'm looking to see if there is a way to make an NPC on Minecraft: Java Edition
You can add your own dialogue to the text box, and even add custom buttons that can make something happen when clicked.
How would I get something like this on Minecraft: Java Edition? Would it be through commands? Or would third-party mods/plugins need to become involved?
