7.7.31

ChatAI context

• Added a new ChatAI Context Editor for giving AI villagers persistent information about themselves, the player, their village, and the world.

  • Open it with /mca chatAI context.
  • The editor automatically targets the nearest MCA villager for the Villager tab and the nearest relevant village for the Village tab.
  • Changes are saved when you switch tabs or close the screen.
  • Context entries can be up to 4096 characters.
  • By default, editing requires permission level 3. The single-player world owner can always use it.
  • Server owners can change this with villagerChatAIContextPermissionLevel.

How to use the context tabs

• Villager - information that belongs only to the selected/nearest villager.

  • Good for personality details, history, secrets, goals, memories, habits, or a custom role.
  • Example: You used to be a travelling cartographer. You are fascinated by ruined structures and distrust pillagers.
  • Villagers now receive a small randomly generated background automatically if they do not already have one.

• Player - information AI villagers should know specifically about the player using the editor.

  • Good for roleplay identity, titles, relationships, important past events, or facts that villagers should consistently remember.
  • Example: John is the founder of this settlement and prefers being addressed as Mayor.

• Village - shared information about the current village.

  • Every AI villager in that village can use this context.
  • Good for settlement history, local rules, rivalries, landmarks, disasters, traditions, or ongoing events.
  • Example: Oakvale was rebuilt after a raid. The old watchtower north of town is considered haunted.

• World - global context and instructions shared by AI villagers everywhere.

  • Use this for information or behaviour that should apply across the entire world, rather than to one villager, player, or village.
  • Good for custom world lore, modpacks, server settings, roleplay rules, factions, historical events, or defining how villagers should generally behave.
  • Example: This world is a frozen post-apocalyptic kingdom. Villagers treat redstone technology as ancient machinery and never mention the real world.
  • The World tab controls MCA's global ChatAI system prompt, so anything written here can influence every AI villager.
  • For information specific to one character or location, use the Villager, Player, or Village tabs instead.

The effective AI context is layered together as World → Villager → Player → Village, alongside MCA's normal personality, traits, relationships, environment and other conversation information.

Villagers

• Added more varied automatically generated backgrounds for AI villagers, including personal history, skills, habits, preferences, keepsakes, goals and beliefs.

• Improved Villager ↔ Zombie Villager conversion.
