[1.8] Extending EntityLiving.

[Ernio]

So I am making NPCs and They are not ment to be EntityCreature (lot of useless fields). EntityLiving is what I am after.

I registered EntityNPC extending EntityLiving and comman /summon won't let me me spawn it. What is required (in code) to make implementation of EntityLiving (or how do i spawn it with /summon)?

 

Note: Yes, entity is registered in EntityList. (checked)

 

Chat msg: "Unable to summon object"

"Unable to summon object" means the summoning of your entity throwed an exception.

I think there would be messages in your console.

[Ernio]

[04:12:27] [server thread/WARN]: Skipping Entity with id NPC
[04:12:27] [Client thread/INFO]: [CHAT] Unable to summon object

 

It's like /summon doesn't see it, it's not an error (this message is also displayed if you put random entity name in command - non existant, like /summon dfafa, so that's not an "error").

 

For sake:

	EntityRegistry.registerModEntity(EntityNPC.class, "NPC", 0, InitUtil.ModID, 160, 1, true);

Maybe it's /summon modid.NPC?

You used registerModEntity, the entity id in your mod would have a common prefix "modid.".

Maybe it's /summon modid.NPC?

You used registerModEntity, the entity id in your mod would have a common prefix "modid.".

 

Yes I agree that I think you have to put modid prefix.

 

In one of my mods with lots of custom entities I got tired of either forgetting to put my modid or tired of typing it when I remembered.  So I created my own command called /conjure.  I have a tutorial on this if you're interested: http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/p/minecraft-forge-172.html
