Hey,

My mob spawns with the help of a spawn egg. But it doesn't spawn naturally. Here is my code:-

Tutorial.java (Main file)

package tutorial;

    public static int startEntityId = 300;
    
    public static int getUniqueEntityId() {
    	do {
    		startEntityId++;
    	}
    	while(EntityList.getStringFromID(startEntityId) != null);
    	return startEntityId++;
    }
    
    public static void registerEntityEgg(Class<? extends Entity> entity, int primaryColor, int secondaryColor){
    	int id = getUniqueEntityId();
    	EntityList.IDtoClassMapping.put(id, entity);
    	EntityList.entityEggs.put(id, new EntityEggInfo(id, primaryColor, secondaryColor));
    }
    @EventHandler
    public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event)
    {
    	EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(EntityUncleTomo.class, "Uncle Tomo", 1);
    	EntityRegistry.addSpawn(EntityUncleTomo.class, 100, 100, 200, EnumCreatureType.ambient);
    	EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId();
    	registerEntityEgg(EntityUncleTomo.class, 0x3AD71A, 0xD7D11A);

Do you mean - they don't spawn randomly?

Have a look in WorldServer.spawnRandomCreature -

    public SpawnListEntry spawnRandomCreature(EnumCreatureType par1EnumCreatureType, int par2, int par3, int par4)
    {
        List list = this.getChunkProvider().getPossibleCreatures(par1EnumCreatureType, par2, par3, par4);
        list = ForgeEventFactory.getPotentialSpawns(this, par1EnumCreatureType, par2, par3, par4, list);
        return list != null && !list.isEmpty() ? (SpawnListEntry)WeightedRandom.getRandomItem(this.rand, list) : null;
    }

It does a call to ForgeEventFactory.getPotentialSpawns (WorldEvent.PotentialSpawns) which I think will let you add your own creatures to the list of creatures provided by the vanilla code.

I don't quite understand what you mean by 'spawn randomly.' Let me give you an example.

The Zombie:-

It can spawn in two ways.

1. Right click any block with a Zombie Spawn egg and it will spawn.

2. It spawns naturally on a difficulty of Easy or above.

Similarly, my mob:-

Uncle Tomo:-

It should spawn in two ways:-

1. Right click any block with an Uncle Tomo spawn egg and it will spawn. (This method works)

2. It spawns naturally on a difficulty of Easy or above. (This isn't working! It is not spawning naturally!)

Keen, that's what I thought you meant.

You can get them to spawn naturally using the Forge event WorldEvent.PotentialSpawns

Have you used Forge events before?

I've never used events before. I was reading the article you gave me, but I can't understand much. :(

yeah it's a bit cryptic. Let's see if I can't adapt a bit of code I've used before...

public class MyEventHandler {

  @ForgeSubscribe
  public void addMyCreature(WorldEvent.PotentialSpawns event) {
    World world = event.world;
    int xposition = event.x;
    int yposition = event.y;
    int zposition = event.z;
    EnumCreatureType creatureType = event.type;
    List<SpawnListEntry> listOfSpawnableCreatures = event.list;

    final int SPAWNWEIGHT = 5;  // the higher the number, the more likely this creature will spawn
    final int MINIMUMNUMBERTOSPAWN = 1;
    final int MAXIMUMNUMBERTOSPAWN = 4;

    switch (creatureType) {
      case monster: {
        SpawnListEntry myNewCreatureSpawn = new SpawnListEntry(MyCreature.class, SPAWNWEIGHT, MINIMUMNUMBERTOSPAWN, MAXIMUMNUMBERTOSPAWN);
        listOfSpawnableCreatures.add(myNewCreatureSpawn);
        break;
      }
      case creature:
      case waterCreature:
      case ambient:
      default:  
    }
  }
}

In my mod's base class

  @EventHandler
  public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
    MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new MyEventHandler());
  }

I haven't actually run that code, but it should be pretty close to what you need.
