How to use: add the wanted codes with their values on their own lines. Create a .txt file in the graphics folder for the level and name it after the NPC (if you want to apply codes to Goomba, name the .txt file as npc-1). Example:
playerblocktop=0
nofireball=1
jumphurt=1
score=6
The player would be able to walk on the Goomba, the Goomba would be invulnerable to fireballs, the Player would get hurt on top of it and the Goomba would add 1000 points to the player's total points when killed.
Here's the list of possible NPC codes. When applying 1 or 0, 1 means yes and 0 means no.
gfxoffsetx=[+/- numbers] (moves the graphic in the x direction)
gfxoffsety=[+/- numbers] (moves the graphic in the y direction)
width=[+ numbers] (NPC's width)
height=[+ numbers] (NPC's height)
gfxwidth=[+ numbers] (graphics width)
gfxheight=[+ numbers] (graphics height)
score=[1-12] (score you get by killing: 10 100 200 400 800 1000 2000 4000 8000 1up 2up 5up)
playerblock=[1,0] (makes NPCs act like blocks to the players)
playerblocktop=[1,0] (makes the player able to stand on the NPC)
npcblock=[1,0] (makes the NPC act like a block to other NPCs)
npcblocktop=[1,0] (makes NPCs able to stand on the NPC)
grabside=[1,0] (gives the player the ability to grab NPCs from the side)

noyoshi=[1,0] (if true you can't eat the NPC)
foreground=[1,0] (if true the NPC is in front of everything)
speed=[+/- numbers] - how fast the NPC moves (the number is what the speed is multiplied by: 0 = no speed, 1 = default, 2 = twice as fast as default, 3 = thrice as fast etc.* Negative values make it move backwards.)
nofireball=[1,0] (if true the NPC can't be killed by fireballs)
nogravity=[1,0] (if true the NPC walks in the air)
frames=[+ number] (sets the number of frames the NPC should have)
framespeed=# - how fast the NPC animates (1-7 is faster than the default speed of ~8 frames per second, 8 is the default speed and 9 or bigger is slower**)
framestyle=[0,1,2] (names the style the frames should switch***)
noiceball=[1,0] (if true enemy can't freeze when an ice ball touches it)

HIDDEN "THE LAKITUS ARE THROWING LAKITUS!" TAB
This secret The Lakitus are throwing Lakitus! Level Editor tab was one of the new things in the last update of SMBX.

It also has this lesser known ridable airship piece that, while a skillful user may be able to use really creatively, is really glitchy.
Here's a picture of the hidden tab:
The way to find this tab was first revealed to beta testers only, but it was soon found by a regular SMBX user. His way to find the tab is complicated, and I'm going to reveal the actual way now.
- 1. Test the level. You can also do it after you've done the following steps, but it takes less time if you do step 5 in the real time level editor (in the testing mode).
2. Open the NPCs window.
Also, here's what the secret NPCs do (in order):
