Hi everyone,

 

I am working on a targeting AI, it is basically identical atm to the skeleton targeting AI as I have just started and I got this to work for my entity all of the methods are called properly etc etc.

 

I was wondering if anyone would know how I could get the last attackerEntity that attacked the entity doing the targeting? I basically want to use this to change the targeting code so that instead of doing the regular targeting code that a skeleton does, my ai will do revenge attacks on the last attacking entity inside the shouldExecute method? I have tried outprinting the following to see whether or not i could get the entity using getLastAttacker();

System.out.println("LAST ENTITY TO ATTACK ME WAS: " + this.taskOwner.getLastAttacker());

 

but I get null every tick.

 

anyone know why?

I use the LivingHurtEvent to set the last attacker and then I just get the attacker in my AI and it works

 

@SubscribeEvent
public void hurt(LivingHurtEvent event) {

if(event.entity instanceof EntityCustom){
		EntityCustom entity = (EntityCustom) event.entity;
		entity.setLastAttacker(event.source.getEntity());
	}
}

 

now it isnt null

public boolean shouldExecute()
    {
    	
        	System.out.println("ATTACKING ENTITY IS: " + this.taskOwner.getLastAttacker());
}
