Entity Interaction

[yarinch]

Hey everyone!

 

I'm having a problem. I've been trying to solve it all day, tried many different ways to do it, looked up online and nothing helped.

I have an entity I made that extends the Entity class (not EntityLivingBase). I'm trying to have it do something when iteracted with my own item.

 

I've tried to use setSize(width, height) in the entity constructor.

I've tried overriding the getBoundingBox to return

return AxisAlignedBB.getBoundingBox(-2, -2, -2, 2, 2, 2);

I've tried to override interactFirst in the entity class, didn't work.

I've tried to override onLeftClickEntity in the item class, didn't work.

Right clicking on the entity will right click on the block underneath it, and left clicking will break the block underneath.

I'm trying to have the entity do something when left/right clicked (preferably right), but the methods don't seem to fire.

(I've tested them by printing to the console in the start of the method)

 

Note that I can't use itemInteractionForEntity because this method passes EntityLivingBase, but I'm using an Entity.

 

I'm lost. Any help please?

Thanks and happy holidays!

Hi

 

You might try overriding

Entity.canBeCollidedWith() to return true.

 

Not sure if it will do what you want but might be worth a try.
