ComplexNPC
(**kwargs)¶ New in version 1.2.0.
A complex NPC is nothing more than a
NPC
mashed with aBoardComplexItem
.It supports all parameters of both with inheritance going first to NPC and second to BoardComplexItem.
The main interest is of course the multiple cell representation and the Sprites support.
Example:
player = ComplexNPC( name='Idiot McComplexStupid', sprite=npc_sprite_collection['troll_licking_stones'] )
