THIS MOD DOESN'T WORK PERFECTLY IN SDV 1.5!

This mod causes some weird issues with SDV 1.5 which I can't reproduce. If you are saw some weird bahaviours wit this mod, please don't report it if it was:

  • Recruited companion ignores recruitment and continues their scheduled path or stands and doesn't follow you
  • Duplicated the NPC when recruit or dismiss
  • Fighting with blank or no sword
  • Nothing work or cause big problems in split screen or multiplayer (NEVER PLAY THIS MOD IN MULTIPLAYER OR SPLIT SCREEN, it's not and never be compatible)
  • NPC doesn't follow you through lava in Volcano or via bridges on Island.

because I am not able fix these issues alone, I am asking you for help. If you want to help me to fix these problem and you have a knowledge of C# modding in SMAPI, contact me via discord (link is at bottom of this page). Thanks

Recruit companions to follow you! Currently supports all vanilla marriage candidates (bachelors and bachelorettes).

Current Features~

  • Ask recruitable NPC's to follow you (5 hearts or more required.)
  • Recruitable NPC’s can now ask if they can join you (7 hearts or more required, configurable.)
  • Dismiss your follower at any time. They will leave on their own when it gets too late.
  • Recruited followers have unique dialogue in different locations (WIP)
  • All recruited followers can fight with you (with their own swords and fighting skills!)
  • You can transfer items from your inventory anytime to your currently recruited follower.
  • If you forget your items, or your follower leaves before you can reclaim them, they will be returned to you the next day.
  • Support for content packs and localizations. You can add any custom NPC as a companion with a content pack! (see how to create content pack on wiki, or content pack list for download content packs.)
  • Custom user configuration (via config.json, see SMAPI docs) 
  • Changeable/prosthetic buffs for Maru (hold G to change buff)
  • All followers have idle animations as well as speech bubbles while fighting!
  • Companion events for some companions! (triggered during adventuring with recruited companion)
  • Based on Quest Framework

Followers have unique personal skills, currently implemented: warrior, fighter, doctor, forager and scared.

  • Doctors can fight with swords and also heal you if your health is under 30%. They can also try to save you before you collapse.
  • Warriors do more damage to monsters and are able to fight with swords and use critical defense fists in combat. They can also upgrade their swords.
  • Foragers can forage and occasionally share their findings with you.
  • Scared can be scared, screech and jump away when they see a monster, but don't worry, they can still fight (if they have a fighter skill). Mostly this "negative" skill is compensated by more powerful buffs.
  • Fighters are less powerful than warriors. They can level up and sync with player, and can upgrade their swords. It's a secondary skill, in most cases is assigned with any other skill.
  • Spirituals can send some peace&love for monsters with their spiritual emergy and make them peaceful. Loved monsters will not attack you for limited time.
  • Fisherman can fish with fishing rod and share caught fishes with you.
