So, I'm making a mod, and I need a specific entity to spawn when a key is pressed while the player is holding an item.When spawned, it should stay behind the player. I also need it to move in front of the player when a specific key is pressed, and disappear when another key is pressed.

Use direction of blocks for each cardinal direction to always stay behind the player.

I'm not sure if this would work but it'd be a good start.

I feel like that would work absolutely perfect, but im not sure where to put the code. Currently, i have it so that when you use an item, it spawns an entity. would i have to put that on an entity trigger?
