type

int Terraria.NPC.type

The NPC ID of this NPC. The NPC ID is a unique number assigned to each NPC loaded into the game. This will be equal to either an T:Terraria.ID.NPCID entry or M:Terraria.ModLoader.ModContent.NPCType``1, for example F:Terraria.ID.NPCID.AngryBones or ModContent.NPCType<MyModNPC>(). To check if an NPC instance is a specific NPC, check NPC.type == NPCID.VanillaNPCHere or NPC.type == ModContent.NPCType<ModdedNPCHere>() in an if statement.

<negativenote>There are a few NPC that share the same F:Terraria.NPC.type number, usually slight variations of enemies. F:Terraria.ID.NPCID.GreenSlime and F:Terraria.ID.NPCID.RedSlime have values of -3 and -8, respectively, but after they are spawned they will have the type equal to 1, which is the same value as F:Terraria.ID.NPCID.BlueSlime. If code logic requires differentiating between these variations, use F:Terraria.NPC.netID instead.</negativenote>
