NPC Bits

NPC Bits (Also known as NPC Flags) are toggles on NPCs that enable certain NPC features. They can be turned on for individual NPC Types as well as for individual NPCs in a PXE file.

Note

In the original game NPC Bits are bit-wise. Because of this, many editors show bitwise information for them. For simplicity's sake ModCS uses normal decimal values.
