Hello!
I am new to forge modding, and am trying to make an entity. I followed a YouTube tutorial from TechnoVision, but I get an error when I try to register the entity.
This is the file on which I try to register the entity:

public class ModEntityTypes {

    public static DeferredRegister<EntityType<?>> ENTITY_TYPES = DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.ENTITIES, TerraLands.MOD_ID);

    // Entity Types

    public static final RegistryObject<EntityType<grenadeEntity>> GRENADE = ENTITY_TYPES.register("grenade",
            () -> EntityType.Builder.create(grenadeEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC)
                    .size(0.25f, 0.25f)
                    .build(new ResourceLocation(TerraLands.MOD_ID, "grenade").toString()));
}

I get an error here:

            () -> EntityType.Builder.create(grenadeEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC)

For whatever reason, the "new" after "grenadeEntity::" gives me an error saying "Cannot resolve constructor 'grenadeEntity'".
The grenadeEntity class looks like this:

public class grenadeEntity extends TNTEntity {

    public grenadeEntity(World worldIn, double x, double y, double z, @Nullable LivingEntity igniter) {
        super(worldIn, x, y, z, igniter);
    }

    public grenadeEntity(EntityType<? extends TNTEntity> type, World worldIn) {
        super(type, worldIn);
    }

    @Override
    protected void explode() {
        float f = 4.0F;
        this.world.createExplosion(this, this.getPosX(), this.getPosYHeight(0.0625D), this.getPosZ(), 4.0F, Explosion.Mode.NONE);
    }
}

I tried changing the second constructor:

    public grenadeEntity(EntityType<? extends TNTEntity> type, World worldIn) {
        super(type, worldIn);
    }

to

    public grenadeEntity(EntityType<?> type, World worldIn) {
        super(type, worldIn);
    }

which seems to fix the problem, but then there's a new problem:

            () -> EntityType.Builder.create(grenadeEntity::new, EntityClassification.MISC)
                    .size(0.25f, 0.25f)
                    .build(new ResourceLocation(TerraLands.MOD_ID, "grenade").toString()));

This entire section of code gets highlighted, giving an error that reads as follows:


Required type:     RegistryObject <EntityType<grenadeEntity>>
Provided:              RegistryObject <EntityType<Entity>>

I am a little stuck and would greatly appreciate some help on what is going on and how to fix it. Thanks!

Your constructor accepts EntityType<? extends TNTEntity>, when it should be EntityType<? extends grenadeEntity>


Also I would recommend capitalizing the first letter of your class names.
Rename grenadeEntity (Shift+F6 in IntelliJ) to GrenadeEntity.

    • 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.
    • Can you reproduce this with version 55.0.21? A whole lot of plant placement issues were just fixed in this PR.
    • Necro'ing that thread to ask if you found a solution ? I'm encountering the same crash on loading the world. I created the world in Creative to test my MP, went into survival to test combat, died, crashed on respawn and since then crash on loading the world. Deactivating Oculus isn't fixing it either, and I don't have Optifine (Twilight forest is incompatible)
