GlymeraCompanion - Recruit NPCs as Your Personal Companions

Recruit wild NPCs with a Glymera Sword, build your personal squad, and fight together. Your companions follow you, defend you, and join your attacks. Manage them through a visual UI or chat commands.

Most actual version only working for Hytale stable 5 !

What is GlymeraCompanion?

GlymeraCompanion lets you recruit almost any humanoid NPC in the game as a permanent companion. Hit a wild NPC with the craftable Glymera Sword to recruit it. Your companions follow you around, teleport to you when you get too far away, and fight alongside you in combat. Manage your squad through a visual UI page or classic chat commands.

Recruit, fight, conquer.

How It Works

1. Craft a Glymera Sword at an Arcanebench
2. Find a wild NPC you want to recruit
3. Hit it with the Glymera Sword — it joins your squad
4. Open /gc to manage your companions through the UI
5. Dismiss companions you don't need right now (they stay in your roster)
6. Call them back whenever you want

Combat System

Your companions fight for you in three ways:

• You get hit — All active companions attack your attacker
• Companion gets hit — That companion fights back
• You attack a mob — All active companions join the fight

Companions deal configurable melee damage with hit effects and sound. They return to following you after combat ends (10s timeout).

Commands

/gc — Open the companion management UI
/gc call <name> — Summon a companion to your side
/gc dismiss <name> — Send a companion away (stays in roster)
/gc release <name> — Release a companion permanently (frees slot)
/gc list — List all your companions with status
/gc status — Show slot and cooldown overview
/gc transfer <name> <player> — Give a companion to another player
/gc admin slots <player> <amount> — Set companion slots for a player (OP only)

Companion Management UI

Type /gc to open a visual page showing all your companions as cards:

• Green = Active (following you)
• Yellow = Idle (dismissed, ready to call)
• Red = Dead (on respawn cooldown with timer)

Each card has action buttons: Call, Dismiss, Release. The page updates live after every action.

Configuration

File at config.json (created on first start in plugin data directory):

• maxCompanionsPerPlayer (default: 10) — Maximum companions in a player's roster
• maxActiveCompanions (default: 3) — Maximum companions active at the same time
• defaultSlots (default: 5) — Starting slots for new players

Good to Know

• Companions are despawned when you disconnect and respawned when you rejoin (with 2s delay)
• Companions cannot attack other players — they only target NPCs/mobs
• Hitting your own companion does nothing (player attacks are ignored)
• The Glymera Sword does not damage NPCs during recruitment (damage is cancelled)
• Companions keep their original wild appearance
• Admins can adjust slots per player with /gc admin slots
• All companion data is stored as JSON files per player in the plugin data directory

Installation

1. Place GlymeraCompanion.jar in your server's mods/ folder
