I'm unsure of a few of the parameters, what they do and what I should set them as

For the method EntityRegistry.registerModEntity, the parameters I'm unsure of are:

 

trackingRange

updateFrequency

sendsVelocityUpdates

 

What is the definition of each, what they do and how do I know what to set them as?

Thanks in advance.

 

trackingRange: How far from a player the entity continue to "live", somewhere between 10 and 100 is safe.

updateFrequency: Pretty self explanatory, usually between 1 and 10.

sendsVelocityUpdates: If true, send velocity packets around.

I'm still unsure about update frequency. By update, what does it mean by that

And for example a frequency of 5, what does that mean? 5 times a second?

Not, more like the contrary.

Look at

sendLocationToAllClients(List)

in EntityTrackerEntry, this is where those are used.

 

And EntityTracker contains all vanilla examples.
