jamiemac262 Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 hi, i'm building a mob with a block that needs to detect when a hostile mob stands on it, and kill the mob. i have absolutely no idea how to do this or even where to start could somebody point me in the right direction please? Quote
FBalazs Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 Hi If you want to kill the mob instantly you can kill it in the block's onEntityWalking(World world, int x, int y, int z, Entity entity) method. @Override public void onEntityWalking(World world, int x, int y, int z, Entity entity) { entity.setDead(); // or something like that. } I hope you can find some entity detection releated stuff in the vanilla pressure plate's code. Quote Sorry for my bad English! FBalazs
Busti Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 You can check if the entity is a mob by doing this: @Override public void onEntityWalking(World world, int x, int y, int z, Entity entity) { if (entity instanceof EntityMob) { entity.setDead(); // or something like that. } } Quote PM's regarding modding questions should belong in the Modder Support sub-forum and won't be answered.
Draco18s Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 You can also make the block have a shorter physics hull than rendering hull (think soul sand) and use onEntityCollideWithBlock. https://github.com/Draco18s/Artifacts/blob/master/draco18s/artifacts/block/BlockQuickSand.java You will need the physics hull to be at least 1% smaller than the actual hull, or the collision won't be detected on every side that you wish for the damage to be dealt (linked block is top, cactus is top and sides).

If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.
