Stuff that is only possible with npcserver:
- pirate ships
- trading weapons (using the trading item)
- kingdoms game
- a non-cheatable money system

Stuff that can be done without but would
be very hard because it will be unbalanced
or very buggy:
- gralat 'plants'
- bomy pets (couldn't move outside a level)
- cs, ctf

Stuff that can be done without npcserver:
- railroads
- music instruments
- bomy player race
- fishing, crafting


You see, you can do nice stuff without the npcserver,
but it is missing the 'background': security and
stability. On the npcserver always everything is
the same and equal for all players, while with the old
client-side thing people can cheat or have advantage
because they are the 'npc-controller' (first player in
the level)
