NPC Interactive Objects?

    So, when I play Starbound, or any game, I'm all about immersion. And this new colonist update is awesome! My entire ship is teaming with life now. I especially love how the colonists interact with objects and other NPCs.

    But I'm curious, what objects do they interact with? Is there a list available?
    I know they use the water cooler and they beat on the drums, sit in chairs and flip levers.
    But aside from those, what else do they do? What other objects could I place in my ship for them to interact with?

    Thanks for your help. :p

    The wiki says any object with the NPCtoy attribute. I didn't link in case you don't want spoilers.

    Ones that you didn't mention: Paintings, Gongs, teleporters, tombstones, trashbins, wiring, consoles

    Oh, ok. Is that attribute listed in game? Or is it something I have to look up on the wiki? Also, how do they interact with paintings and teleporters. That seems odd. :p

    No, those attributes are only available if you've extracted the assets as explained in the modding tutorials. There's a few with that data on the wiki so far, but mostly just the furnaces (e.g. http://starbounder.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Data:Scififurnace&action=edit )
    I haven't tried the paintings myself, but the teleporters they beam themselves around locally.

    I looked all over the wiki, nothing says about what items are interactive other then what you just said but they add ect. on the end, also no object on the wiki says npctoy attribute so there is no link to post about it, if any one has a list of the interactive items, please post it.
