[1.7.10]Making mobs spawn in all biomes

[skullcrusher1005]

Hey guys, I recently got my mobs working and stuff but I'm having an issue where one mob will spawn near the world spawn and no other mobs will spawn at all anywhere. Also, How do I set it so I can make it spawn in all biomes without naming them all? You know, Since 1.7 has a ton on them

Entity Registry spawn code. Btw this is in my InitHandler

 

//Entities

    EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(EntityGamingOnCaffeine.class, "GamingOnCaffeine", EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId(), 0x7314AB, 0xFFE600);

    RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityGamingOnCaffeine.class, new RenderEntityGamingOnCaffeine(new ModelBiped(), 0.5F));

    EntityRegistry.addSpawn(EntityGamingOnCaffeine.class, 10, 1, 3, EnumCreatureType.monster, BiomeGenBase.taigaHills, BiomeGenBase.jungle,

    BiomeGenBase.jungleHills, BiomeGenBase.plains, BiomeGenBase.taiga, BiomeGenBase.forest,

    BiomeGenBase.forestHills, BiomeGenBase.swampland, BiomeGenBase.river, BiomeGenBase.beach,

    BiomeGenBase.desert, BiomeGenBase.extremeHills, BiomeGenBase.extremeHillsEdge, BiomeGenBase.mesa);

   

    EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(EntityMeatyLock.class, "MeatyLock", EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId(), 0x663333, 0xFF0404);

    RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityMeatyLock.class, new RenderEntityMeatyLock(new ModelBiped(), 0.5F));

    EntityRegistry.addSpawn(EntityMeatyLock.class, 10, 1, 3, EnumCreatureType.monster, BiomeGenBase.taigaHills, BiomeGenBase.jungle,

    BiomeGenBase.jungleHills, BiomeGenBase.plains, BiomeGenBase.taiga, BiomeGenBase.forest,

    BiomeGenBase.forestHills, BiomeGenBase.swampland, BiomeGenBase.river, BiomeGenBase.beach,

    BiomeGenBase.desert, BiomeGenBase.extremeHills, BiomeGenBase.extremeHillsEdge, BiomeGenBase.mesa);

   

    EntityRegistry.registerGlobalEntityID(EntityKryllyk.class, "Kryllyk", EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId(), 0x38B4BD, 0xFFFFFF);

    RenderingRegistry.registerEntityRenderingHandler(EntityKryllyk.class, new RenderEntityKryllyk(new ModelBiped(), 0.5F));

    EntityRegistry.addSpawn(EntityKryllyk.class, 10, 1, 3, EnumCreatureType.monster, BiomeGenBase.taigaHills, BiomeGenBase.jungle,

    BiomeGenBase.jungleHills, BiomeGenBase.plains, BiomeGenBase.taiga, BiomeGenBase.forest,

    BiomeGenBase.forestHills, BiomeGenBase.swampland, BiomeGenBase.river, BiomeGenBase.beach,

    BiomeGenBase.desert, BiomeGenBase.extremeHills, BiomeGenBase.extremeHillsEdge, BiomeGenBase.mesa);

Use the BiomeGenBase array that stores all the biomes. It's BiomeGenBase.biomeList, I believe. BUT BE CAREFUL! I'm pretty sure it's length is 256 and you know, most of the time, it's not taken up fully, so...

 

Alternatively, you can iterate through that list, create an array list, add in the biomes that aren't null, and then convert that to an array and use it.

The reason this works is because the last parameter of the addSpawn is a BiomeGenBase array (or "BiomeGenBase...", which at the end of the parameters means an array), so you can use any array of biomes you want.

At least, I'm pretty sure that's correct.

 

I hope that helped!
