Support Steve (NPC Companion & Workers)

Support Steve (NPC Companion & Workers)

Your Personal Minecraft AI Companion and Workforce

Bring intelligent NPC companions and autonomous workers into your Minecraft world!

Support Steve is a Minecraft Forge mod that introduces independent Steve NPCs with their own AI, inventories, equipment, jobs, and navigation systems.

Summon your own Steve companions and turn them into farmers, miners, guards, production workers, and combat assistants. Assign tasks, define work areas, manage their equipment, and let them help you gather resources and survive dangerous encounters.

Unlike ordinary Minecraft followers, Support Steve gives every companion an individual inventory, configurable work assignments, autonomous behaviors, and the ability to operate independently.

Whether you need a loyal combat companion, an automated mining assistant, a dedicated farmer, or a team of Minecraft NPC workers, Support Steve brings a new level of automation and companionship to your survival world.
