Help, method in EntityLivingBase is not public

[Manslaughter777]

So i made a living entity event class but one of the methods i need is not public in the EntityLivingBase class,what can i do?

 

LivingEvent class

 

 

public class EntityLivingEventMoon {

private Random rand;

@SubscribeEvent
public void updateEntity(LivingUpdateEvent event) {
	boolean flag = event.entityLiving instanceof EntityPlayer && ((EntityPlayer)event.entityLiving).capabilities.disableDamage;

        if (event.entityLiving.isEntityAlive() && event.entityLiving.isInsideOfMaterial(Material.air))
        {
            if (!event.entityLiving.canBreatheUnderwater() && !event.entityLiving.isPotionActive(Potion.waterBreathing.id) && !flag)
            {
            	event.entityLiving.setAir(event.entityLiving.decreaseAirSupply(event.entityLiving.getAir())); //decreaseAirSupply is not visible

                if (event.entityLiving.getAir() == -20)
                {
                	event.entityLiving.setAir(0);

                    for (int i = 0; i < 8; ++i)
                    {
                        float f = this.rand.nextFloat() - this.rand.nextFloat();
                        float f1 = this.rand.nextFloat() - this.rand.nextFloat();
                        float f2 = this.rand.nextFloat() - this.rand.nextFloat();
                        event.entityLiving.worldObj.spawnParticle("bubble", event.entityLiving.posX + (double)f, event.entityLiving.posY + (double)f1, event.entityLiving.posZ + (double)f2, event.entityLiving.motionX, event.entityLiving.motionY, event.entityLiving.motionZ);
                    }

                    event.entityLiving.attackEntityFrom(DamageSource.drown, 2.0F);
                }
            }

            if (!event.entityLiving.worldObj.isRemote && event.entityLiving.isRiding() && event.entityLiving.ridingEntity != null && event.entityLiving.ridingEntity.shouldDismountInWater(event.entityLiving))
            {
            	event.entityLiving.mountEntity((Entity)null);
            }
        }
        else
        {
        	event.entityLiving.setAir(300);
        }


    }

}

 

 

 

The method i need to somehow make public which i have no clue how to do:

 

 

protected int decreaseAirSupply(int air)
    {
        int j = EnchantmentHelper.getRespiration(this); //"this" needs to be entitylivingbase since i took the method straight from that class.
        return j > 0 && this.rand.nextInt(j + 1) > 0 ? air: air- 1;
    }

 

 

 

any help would be great

Calling that function isn't going to do you any good (see below).  As soon as the entity gets another update tick, its air supply will reset.

 

I told you to use IEEP to track "your" air.  Which means replicating the effects of that private function on "your" data.

 

 if (this.isEntityAlive() && this.isInsideOfMaterial(Material.water)) { //stuff }
else {
    this.setAir(300);
}

 

No matter what you do to the air supply of an entity, if it is not in water, that air supply value will ALWAYS be reset.

Hmm I see... Ill try it out and see how I go. Thanks

How would I go about tracking "my" air and replicating it? (Sorry for late reply)

What I meant was how would I do it "in" IEEP

[Abastro]

You should replicate the effect of the Air Bubble, and save & load the data from the entity using the IEEP.

[Manslaughter777]

So create like my own version of "air"? And make it do the same as the regular air except only when inside my material?

Pretty much
