• Adjuested npc SLANC's personality base on community suggestion, the npc will now act more friendly. this npc is still experiemental please let me know how u think. btw, this npc is not a tutorial bot and was not designed to be one, a AI-powered tutorial npc or helper would be cool but the tech is still not possible yet, it is still experimental.

2023/04/22

2023/04/21

• You can Summon SLANC for 10 minutes by using SLANC Connector item, this the bot is summon based and not available all the time because otherwise it will be too chaotic if its always chatting all the time, functions similar to Chat Exploits, however it can be used at same time with Chat Exploit, the AI will also be affected by the Chat Exploit with different level of effectiveness, from my testing Pirate, UwU and Love works well, with the AI trying to talk in that manner, so the effect is different from how it affacts players.
