Creating custom spawn eggs with DeferredRegister 1.16.5

Posted August 14, 20214 yr

In my project i use DeferredRegister to register entities, blocks, items and so on. But as i recently discovered, DeferredRegister has some problems with registring spawn eggs that summon custom entities. As i know there is some sort of registration order that registers items first, and only after that entities; and because of that system cannot register spawn egg that has reference to non-existent entity. So my question is there any way to change that order? If not, is there any other way to create spawn eggs using DeferredRegister?

My classes with current logs are below:

You can't really use DeferredRegsiter as far as I'm aware.
To register a spawn egg you'll need to subscribe to RegistryEvent.Register<Item> and then do event.getRegistry().register(SpawnEgg).
I recommend making the spawn egg a variable outside of the method you're using to register them just so you can use that variable for example when adding your SpawnEgg to a manually-ordered creative tab.

Yeah I saw, he just mentioned Fabric so I was wondering when it would be out.

When you are near (1-12ish blocks) the stab shot when it hits, the player gets launched around 50-100 blocks in the air

Thanks for your feedback and suggestions. The new forums run Invision Community 5 - some things are more customisable, other things a lot less. I'm happy to adjust the settings as desired but not sure where they'd be or if they're still available in the new version, so if you could let me know I'll give it a go.
