Hello everyone
I would like to make a mod that displays more information when targeting a living entity, such as when targeting one that has been renamed with the name tag.
For example health, max health, reputation of villagers, etc...
Is there an event like the one for itemstack tooltips where you add lines of text and it's done?
Or something else?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you

Err... RenderNameTagEvent?

 

For doing more comlicated things than text you can for LivingEntitys;

EntityRenderersEvent.AddLayers then addLayer() to the renderers of the entities you want to modify.

The vanilla code for rendering the naming tag can be found in the base EntityRenderer class.

Thank you very much

Is it possible to make a multi line component (if exists)?  to be rendered as platename?

 

The default nametag code has no support for that.

To draw a Component on multiple lines you use Font.split(). See for example AdvancementToast.render()

Thanks again!

Now I have another question:
How do I get player reputation with a villager in client side to show in nameplate?

I found villager.getPlayerReputation(mc.player) but in client side it gives 0 and I didn't find any attribute for it to use with entity.getAttribute()

That's stored in the GossipContainer of the villager. It's only available on the server.

If you want it on the client, you will have to find some way to send it over the network.
