[1.7.10] Temporarily replace external Entity with EntityPlayer then switch back

[Thornack]

Hi Everyone,

 

I am looking at adding functionality to minecraft that would allow the player to become an entity that exists in the world. I have an EntityCustomZombie that has custom stats (custom HP,Attack,defence,speed etc etc... Where each object of the EntityCustomZombie has a unique combination of these stats. I want to create an item that if the player right clicks on the zombie object the player becomes that zombie and inherits all particular stats that are associated with that instance of the EntityCustomZombie, while leaving the player model behind in a stationary spot at the location where you clicked on the zombie. I want this to be reversible so that as a zombie you can click on the players body and leave the zombies body and enter your own again leaving the zombie entity intact. Essentially I want the Zombie to keep all of its particular attributes throughout the entire process where just its movement/controls/cameraview are changed to those of the entity player.

 

Does anyone think this could be achieved and if so any ideas as to where to start? I know that you can replace the player model but I want more than just a simple model replace essentially I want to turn the player into a being that can mind control other entities at will and end the mind control to return them into their original state.

You will need a cusotm player render to give your player the skin of that mob.

 

You will need to find a way for each of the stats you want to change to impliment that change on the player.
