[SOLVED] [1.19] Make custom entities unable to trigger sculk sensors [CODES]

[FantaLaTone]

Hello, I have an entity and I want to make it unable to trigger sculk sensors like Warden. I looked the Warden's code but I couldn't find anything that I can use. How I can implement that feature?

This is not something I have ever looked at before, but;

 

Both Wardens and Sculk Sensors implement VibrationListener.VibrationListenerConfig.

This class by default listens for GameEvents with the tag GameEventTags.VIBRATIONS.

 

Entities emit vibrations in that tag, see callers of Entity.gameEvent()

so you can always override that method to suppress events you don't want to emit.

This may have unwanted side-effects if the event is used for other behaviours, e.g. playing sounds

 

However, if you look at VibrationListenerConfig.isValidVibration(), it checks Entity.dampensVibrations()

so I guess you can override that method in your entity to return true?

Yeah, you were right. Making mobs silent for sculk sensors is really easy. 

Make sure your mob is implementing these:

implements VibrationListener.VibrationListenerConfig

And then override these methods:

@Override
    public boolean canTriggerAvoidVibration() {
        return true; // Actions will not cause vibration
    }

    @Override
    public boolean shouldListen(ServerLevel p_223872_, GameEventListener p_223873_, BlockPos p_223874_, GameEvent p_223875_, GameEvent.Context p_223876_) {
        return false; // Do not listen vibrations
    }

    @Override
    public void onSignalReceive(ServerLevel p_223865_, GameEventListener p_223866_, BlockPos p_223867_, GameEvent p_223868_, @Nullable Entity p_223869_, @Nullable Entity p_223870_, float p_223871_) {
    }

    @Override // I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS ONE DO :(
    public boolean alwaysAccepts() {
        return false;
    }

You don't need last method my bad!

You seem to have a habit of asking questions then doing something completely different to what we tell you. 🙂

I don't understand why doing the above would solve your requirement?

I don't see why it would do anything at all, since all you have done is implement the configuration policy, but you don't have a listener to configure?
