Custom projectile class that extends fireball

[Gamesterido]

public class MyProjEntity extends LargeFireball {


    public MyProjEntity(EntityType<? extends MyProjEntity> pEntityType, Level pLevel) {
        super(pEntityType, pLevel);
    }

    public MyProjEntity(Level pLevel, LivingEntity pShooter, double pOffsetX, double pOffsetY, double pOffsetZ, int pExplosionPower) {
        super(pLevel, pShooter, pOffsetX, pOffsetY, pOffsetZ, pExplosionPower);
    }
}

above is my custom entity class

   public static final RegistryObject<EntityType<MyProjEntity>> myProjectileEntity = entityTypes.register("my_projectile_entity",
            () -> EntityType.Builder.of(MyProjEntity::new);

and this is how I registered it (haven't finished because of the error below)
it confuses between the two constructors I have in the class and idk how to fix it

Try running it, it won't be confused. I'm pretty sure that's just intellij not understanding.

Additionally, the second constructor is wrong. You need to specify your entity type, otherwise it will think it is a vanilla fireball instead.

firstly, it won't let me run it because of the error.
second, so how do I specify that it's my entity type in the second constructor?

That's interesting since the method reference should be able to interpret that correctly. You could try casting it to the correct type or by supplying a lambda instead of the method reference.

You either need to implement the internal logic yourself or extend a different base class like Fireball which takes those parameters in the constructor.
