I've been trying to create a tameable entity, but I hit a roadblock. I can't get it to follow the player. I can do it by telling it to attack the player in the AI, but not actually hurt it, but then, it just keeps following the player at an... uncomfortably... close distance.

 

Here's my code:

 

 

public class EntityFakeWorkbench extends EntityTameable implements IEntityOwnable

{

public EntityFakeWorkbench(World world)

{

super(world);

this.setSize(0.7F, 0.7F);

this.setTamed(true);

        this.tasks.addTask(5, new EntityAIFollowOwner(this, 1.0D, 10.0F, 5.0F));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAISwimming(this));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIWander(this, 1.0D));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIWatchClosest(this, EntityMob.class, 8.0F));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIWatchClosest(this, EntityLiving.class, 8.0F));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIWatchClosest(this, EntityPlayer.class, 8.0F));

this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAILookIdle(this));

}

 

@Override

    public boolean isAIEnabled()

    {

        return true;

    }

 

@Override

public boolean canDespawn()

{

return false;

}

 

@Override

public void applyEntityAttributes()

{

super.applyEntityAttributes();

this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.movementSpeed).setBaseValue(0.3D);

this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.maxHealth).setBaseValue(12.0D);

this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.followRange).setBaseValue(60.0D);

}

 

@Override

protected String getLivingSound()

{

return "minecraft:dig.wood";

 

}

 

@Override

protected String getHurtSound()

{

return "minecraft:dig.wood";

}

 

@Override

protected String getDeathSound()

{

return "minecraft:random.chestclosed";

}

 

@Override

public boolean interact(EntityPlayer player)

    {

        ItemStack itemstack = player.inventory.getCurrentItem();

 

        if(itemstack == null)

        {

        int x = (int)player.posX;

        int y = (int)player.posY - 1;

        int z = (int)player.posZ;

        player.openGui(Main.instance, GUIs.WORKBENCH.ordinal(), player.worldObj, x, y, z);

       

        return true;

        }

        else

        {

        return true;

        }

    }

 

@Override

public EntityAgeable createChild(EntityAgeable p_90011_1_)

{

return null;

}

}

 

 

 

How can I make it follow the player? Or, better yet, make it tamed when I right click it with a certain item?

 

Thanks for all help!

Try overriding onUpdate (and don't forget to call the super).

Wiat, also I noticed you have it follow the owner, do you ever set the owner?

Thanks for your help, I figured it out!
