Hello everyone! Recently while building to the top of the new map I encountered an NPC that is identical to the player. He soon jumped off the top of the map in which I jumped to chase him. The NPC just followed me around and was pretty chill. Was this in an update I missed or is it just something fun the devs threw in while they work on an official update for it.
This also opens up other questions. IE: Is there going to be Player vs. Non-Animal/Monster NPCs? Any ideas? Feel free to reply.
I'll leave a picture beneath.



EDIT: I found another!

Hi DimitriR!
They put them in there as a little Easter Egg.
But, I say it is a good sign that we can expect full working AI allies in the finished game.
Or, as enemies? ;o

I saw them recently in a youtube video as well. It seems the easter egg is climbing to the top of the tree!

Can you kill the clone?

No, but you can knock him back a bit by shooting at him. Sadly, he quickly adjusts, and walks up to you after a couple seconds.
