Belpois, thanks I see you what you mean. I see the code in the EntityWolf class in the interact method. That method on the ItemFood class made me think that wolf tame behavior was implemented using that.
Awesome_Spider, ya I think I will try and keep the behavior similar to the vanilla bone item. I am thinking I will need to inherit from EntityWolf and then override the interact method. Just started learning java so need to go play around with it some.
Thanks for the quick replies!
