How Nameplates Work

Each player has their own segment chain — an ordered list of segments that get composited into the nameplate string. The chain determines what appears above entities and in what order. For example, if a player’s NPC chain is [Health Bar, Guild Tag, Elite Tier] with - separators, entities would show:
42/67 - [Warriors] - [Elite]
Every installed mod can contribute segments. Players pick the ones they want, order them however they like, and choose display formats per segment.

Built-in Segments

NameplateBuilder ships with four built-in segments, shown with a warm-purple tint in the UI:
SegmentVariantsTarget
Player NameName, AnonymizedPlayers
HealthCurrent/Max, Percentage, BarAll
StaminaCurrent/Max, Percentage, BarAll
ManaCurrent/Max, Percentage, BarAll

Empty State

When no segments are enabled, entities display the hint text:
Type /npb to customize
This hint appears instead of the raw entity ID, letting new players know the system exists.
