I have a JSON file with a bunch of objects in it with values that I need to read. How would I go about being able to read this file and access the values. I understand that I need to use GSON but here are my issues. 1. How do I register the file pathway because it does now like using the qualified name. Also is my JSON Reader created correctly? public class GSONDamageResistanceReader { public static void Init() { String file = "/DungeonCraft/src/main/resources/data/dungeoncraft/tags/items/armor_damage_type_resistance_values.json"; //bad file path Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().create(); try (Reader reader = new FileReader(file)) { ArmorResistance armor = gson.fromJson(reader, ArmorResistance.class); System.out.println(armor); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } 2. this is a sample of my JSON file to read and the values I need to get are the resistances. Would I need to store these objects in an array and then use my ArmorResistance class to set and get the values? { "minecraft:leather_chestplate": { "slashing_resistance" : 1, "piercing_resistance" : 1, "bludgeoning_resistance" : 1 }, "minecraft:leather_leggings": { "slashing_resistance" : 1, "piercing_resistance" : 1, "bludgeoning_resistance" : 1 } } Thanks in advance for the help. If you need anymore information let me know, been stuck on this for a while and cant find much else to help.

I am attempting to detect when a mob hits something and then check to see if the Entity is listed in an external file.I am wondering how I would do this. This is what I have currently got, Detect Entity attacking: //Mob attacking @SubscribeEvent public static void testEntityEvent(LivingHurtEvent event) { DamageSource damageSource = event.getSource(); if (damageSource.getTrueSource() instanceof MobEntity) { Item air = Item.getItemByID(0); LivingEntity livingEntity = (LivingEntity) damageSource.getTrueSource(); ItemStack stack = livingEntity.getHeldItemMainhand(); Item item = stack.getItem(); if (item != air) { System.out.println(DamageType.getFromItem(item)); } else { EntityType<?> entity = damageSource.getTrueSource().getEntity(); System.out.println(DamageType.getFromEntity(entity)); } } This is how I check DamageType: @Nonnull public static DamageType getFromEntity(EntityType<?> entity) { if (slashingDamageEntities.contains(entity)) { return SLASHING; } else if (piercingDamageEntities.contains(entity)) { return PIERCING; } return BLUDGEONING; } And this is how I register the Resource Location: public static final EntityTypeTags.Wrapper slashingDamageEntities = new EntityTypeTags.Wrapper(new ResourceLocation(dungeoncraft.MOD_ID, "slashing_damage_mobs")); public static final EntityTypeTags.Wrapper piercingDamageEntities = new EntityTypeTags.Wrapper(new ResourceLocation(dungeoncraft.MOD_ID, "piercing_damage_mobs")); Now I am aware that I am checking the Tags for EntityType<?> instead of Entity but I am wondering how to do it using an Entity instead. Or a better way to do it using EntityType<?> by modifying the first file. For reference this is my Tags file and the other is very similar. { "replace": false, "values": [ "minecraft:chicken", "minecraft:fox", "minecraft:parrot", "minecraft:pufferfish", "minecraft:turtle", "minecraft:bee", "minecraft:wolf", "minecraft:cave_spider", "minecraft:spider", "minecraft:elder_guardian", "minecraft:endermite", "minecraft:guardian", "minecraft:phantom", "minecraft:shulker", "minecraft:silverfish" ] }
