Posted January 18, 20169 yr I have a couple questions about schematics. How would one make random loot in schematics when spawning a custom structure. How could I make my custom mob spawn only in the structure without spawners. like the witch / witch hut. I don't have access to a computer atm so I can't look at its code I am using my phone. thanks in advanced.
January 18, 20169 yr Define what is your "schematic" (what data structure) and what you mean by "spawning structure" (on generation or per command/action or what). Putting random loot into chest is a matter of simply putting it into chest's TileEntity when chest is detected during structure-spawning. Question is when do you want structure to spawn. There are also events that might help, but you need to be more specific. 1.7.10 is no longer supported by forge, you are on your own.
January 18, 20169 yr Re random chest contents: Go look at ChestGenHooks Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
January 18, 20169 yr You just code it. If you want to spawn an entity in the structure, then just spawn one. If you want items or tile entities with loot, just place them. Basically, in your schematic you should have indications on where possible entity spawn points, or loot points are, and then you would use standard Java to check random chance and pick loot or entities or whatever to place.

January 19, 20169 yr If you are talking about a .schematic file such as one produced by World Edit, you need some code to handle loot population in the chest and manage the mobs. I built a mod that does just that - it uses schematics to generate village/world structures, ability to generate loot inside chests of that structure, and to properly handle entities that may be saved with it. The code is on github if you want to take a look at how I did it.
