What the plugin does
Map NPC identifiers to localized overlay text, an RGBA colour and a local position offset. NPC Overlay reads its settings from oxide/data/NpcOverlay.json, while the text is resolved from the plugin’s language files. It is an independent companion for NPC interaction, not a dialogue or quest system.
- 01One overlay entry per configured NPC identifier
- 02Localized label lookup through a language key
- 03RGBA colour and local XYZ offset

// BEFORE YOU START
Requirements and dependencies.
- Rust server running Oxide or Carbon
- An NPC provider emitting OnEnterNPC and matching NPC identifiers
- Matching language keys in oxide/lang/<locale>/NpcOverlay.json
// IMPORTANT BOUNDARIES
Before you install
- The Codefling listing says 1.0.0; its current download identifies itself as 1.0.1. Check the installed plugin before following the guide.
- Test that labels disappear when leaving an NPC. This release uses different exit-hook names (OnExitNPC and OnLeaveNPC), which can prevent labels from being removed.
- Edit the displayed text in the plugin’s language files, separately from label colours and positions.
