Hi guys,

 

I wrote a small method but I would need to know if the entity was spawned by the player with an egg ... or its the vanilla spawning engine that spawned it. Is there a property I can check?

 

@SubscribeEvent

public void entitySpawned (EntityJoinWorldEvent event)

{

 

if (!event.world.isRemote)

{

//Spawning is controlled server side.

                        if (?** entity was spawned by the spawning engine ?**) //not spawned by an egg.

                        {

                            SmartSpawnerControl.ProcessSpawn(event.entity);

                        }

}

}

No one has an idea how to differentiate a spawn coming from the vanilla spawning system and a user using an egg. I am really desperate guys ... I really need to know. Any workaround?

1.7.10:

If you are referring to vanilla mobs, that is quite not possible.

For custom mobs there is onSpawnWithEgg().

 

1.8:

onSpawnWithEgg doesn't exist anymore (I think)

 

Overall - there is no event/variable for it. You COULD make request, I guess. ;p

 

If only you could do ASM... (if you can, you simply edit onSpawnWithEgg(), but again - it won't be there on 1.8, so with ASM you could go even further and implement your own event in entity spawning code.

 

Note: I might be aswell totally wrong writing this. (searched code and can't find shit).
