How to make mobs be a 'pet' to another mob

Started by tntapplecraft YT on Sun, 06/14/2020 - 01:20

So basically I want to make a necromancer mob that can control undead and make them attack. If they get attacked by the player all the undead around it should attack the player afterwards. I also want the necromancer to drop it's robes, which let the player control the undead. Is there anyway to do this?

Wrote this up just for you😘 lol;

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void necromancerDamage(LivingDamageEvent event) {
        if (event.getEntity() instanceof NecromancerEntity && event.getSource().getTrueSource() instanceof LivingEntity)
        {
            List<MobEntity> mobEntities = event.getEntity().world.getEntitiesWithinAABB(MobEntity.class, event.getEntity().getBoundingBox().grow(10));
            Iterator iterator = mobEntities.iterator();
            while (iterator.hasNext()) {
                MobEntity mobEntity = (MobEntity) event.getEntity();
                if (mobEntity.isEntityUndead())
                {
                    mobEntity.setAttackTarget((LivingEntity) event.getSource().getTrueSource());
                }
            }
        }
    }

also want the necromancer to drop it's robes, which let the player control the undead.

Explain more, like how control them. Control movement, etc.

Ok, something similar to this should work, I am on my phone right now so some of the methods may be incorrect.

public void livingAttackTarget(LivingSetAttackTargetEvent event) {
if (event.getTarget().inventory.getItemStackInSlot(EquipmentSlot.CHEST) == new ItemStack(YOURNECROMANCERROBES) && event.getEntity() instanceof MobEntity) {
((MobEntity)event.getEntity()).setAttackTarget(null);
((MobEntity)event.getEntity()).setAggroed(false);
}
}

so where do I put this code?

Since these are events, they can be in any registered class using,

MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(TheClass);

Ok I did the first code for calling all undead to attack the player, but when I put the code into the necromancer damage event and edit it a little and then run client an error message pops up. I think I need to put the code into tick update, but I'm not sure. can you clarify this for me?

Post what you have

package net.mcreator.thestonesofpower.procedures;

import net.mcreator.thestonesofpower.ThestonesofpowerModElements;

@ThestonesofpowerModElements.ModElement.Tag
public class NecromancerEntityIsHurtProcedure extends ThestonesofpowerModElements.ModElement {
   public NecromancerEntityIsHurtProcedure(ThestonesofpowerModElements instance) {
       super(instance, 133);
   }

   public static void executeProcedure(java.util.HashMap<String, Object> dependencies) {
       if (event.getEntity() instanceof NecromancerEntity && event.getSource().getTrueSource() instanceof LivingEntity) { List<MobEntity> mobEntities = event.getEntity().world.getEntitiesWithinAABB(MobEntity.class, event.getEntity().getBoundingBox().grow(20
       0)); Iterator iterator = mobEntities.iterator(); while (iterator.hasNext()) { MobEntity mobEntity = (MobEntity) event.getEntity(); if (mobEntity.isEntityUndead()) { mobEntity.setAttackTarget((LivingEntity) event.getSource().getTrueSource()); } } } }
   }
}

Don't use the code I provided with the procedure wrapper. It provides dependencies, not the event.

Instead you should create a custom element, register it, and then use the code in its entirety.
