Hello! I'm currently working on a mob and I would like its stats to be able to change depending on what/how many mobs are around it, such as dealing knockback if a certain mob is in range, or having N health where N is the number of nearby mobs. I was hoping to be able to use the attributes for this (.MAX_HEALTH, .FOLLOW_RANGE, .MOVEMENT_SPEED, etc.) but that has been proving more difficult than I anticipated. Are there any other ways I can set many different stats for my entity, but dynamically as mobs move in and out of range as opposed to the attributes which are seemingly only on setup?

That's good to hear, I really liked the way attributes had all the stats laid out. Though when I was looking for ways to edit them I couldn't find much, running setCustomAttributes in my entity didn't seem to change the stats at all and both the EntityAttributeCreationEvent and the EntityAttributeModificationEvent didn't quite seem to be what I was looking for. What would I need to do change them as often as I'm trying to?

Finally found something, turns out I was overcomplicating it. Instead of firing events or trying to change baked-in methods I can just set values of the attributes directly.

      updateShape functionality deep dive

      By Sandermall · Posted

      Hello all. I'm currently grappling with the updateShape method in a custom class extending Block.  My code currently looks like this: The conditionals in CheckState are there to switch blockstate properties, which is working fine, as it functions correctly every time in getStateForPlacement.  The problem I'm running into is that when I update a state, the blocks seem to call CheckState with the position of the block which was changed updated last.  If I build a wall I can see the same change propagate across. My question thus is this: is updateShape sending its return to the neighbouring block?  Is each block not independently executing the updateShape method, thus inserting its own current position?  The first statement appears to be true, and the second false (each block is not independently executing the method). I have tried to fix this by saving the block's own position to a variable myPos at inception, and then feeding this in as CheckState(myPos) but this causes a worse outcome, where all blocks take the update of the first modified block, rather than just their neighbour.  This raises more questions than it answers, obviously: how is a different instance's variable propagating here?  I also tried changing it so that CheckState did not take a BlockPos, but had myPos built into the body - same problem. I have previously looked at neighbourUpdate and onNeighbourUpdate, but could not find a way to get this to work at all.  One post on here about updatePostPlacement and other methods has proven itself long superceded.  All other sources on the net seem to be out of date. Many thanks in advance for any help you might offer me, it's been several days now of trying to get this work and several weeks of generally trying to get round this roadblock.  - Sandermall

      sorry, I might be stupid, but how do I open it? because the only options I have are too X out, copy it, which doesn't work and send crash report, which doesn't show it to me, also, sorry for taking so long.
