Random mob spawn onItemUse

[AzureusNation123]

Is there a way to make a random mob spawn with onItemUse?

 

This is what i have so far, but not sure how to finish it.

Without actually reading threw your code it should be as simple as making a list, shuffling the list, and then pulling out a random item from the list. You'll want to store either new Entity instances or classes in the list. Then do the rest after getting a valid Entity from the list.

[AzureusNation123]

could you give an example and work from my code?

Look at the EntityList and Random classes, they can help you.

Replying with the code I gave you on IRC so people seeing this topic in the future can see

No problem, it was fun spawning random mobs!
