The equipment screen lets you place armor, held items, and head items on an NPC. This is useful both for visual design and for combat-oriented NPC setups.

Easy NPC supports the normal player-like slots:

• Head
• Chest
• Legs
• Feet
• Main Hand
• Off Hand

Each slot also has a visibility toggle. If visibility is disabled, the item stays equipped but is not rendered on the NPC.

Not every model can wear everything, so the screen only shows the slots that model supports:

• Full armor (humanoid, zombie, illager, golem, enderman, …): all four armor slots
• Head only (for example Illagers carrying a captain banner): just the head slot, so the banner can be removed or swapped
• No armor (animals, slime, villager, …): no armor slots, hand items only where the model has an attachment point

If a slot is missing, the model does not support it - it is not a bug or a permission problem.

Head-slot rendering now supports player heads with their stored owner data. That means you can use normal skulls as helmets, decorations, or custom character heads.

Examples:

• vanilla mob heads
• player heads
• player heads with stored custom owner data

If a player head item already contains the correct SkullOwner data, Easy NPC renders that head texture on the NPC.

This is an equipment feature, not a separate skin type. The NPC keeps its normal skin setup, and the head item is rendered on top like normal equipment.

You can also set or remove equipment with commands:

/easy_npc equipment set <NPC> <slot> <item>
/easy_npc equipment remove <NPC> <slot>

Examples:

/easy_npc equipment set <NPC> armor.head minecraft:dragon_head
/easy_npc equipment set <NPC> weapon.mainhand minecraft:iron_sword

The equipment set command accepts an item id, not a full custom NBT payload. So if you want a player head with specific owner data or a custom head texture, prepare that item through the UI, a preset, or another NBT-aware workflow first.

• guards with helmets and weapons
• villagers with decorative hats or mob heads
• custom character statues with player heads
• quest NPCs with hidden off-hand items or visual-only equipment
