Hi

 

I am tinkering around with custom entity attributes (I know I have to use the new forge caps) upon breeding animals.

 

My strategy was to find out on how to determine an entity is a newly spawned child, created by breeding (since baby-animals may also spawn in creative mode differently). The problem is: I did not find a dedicated event for this, so I thought I have to use LivingEvent.EntityConstructing, which I registered successfully.

 

This is the code for my event handler:

 

public void onEntityConstructing(EntityEvent.EntityConstructing event) {
	Entity entity = event.getEntity();
	if (entity != null && entity.worldObj != null && !entity.worldObj.isRemote) {
		// only serverside
		if (entity instanceof EntityAnimal) {
			Polycraft.LOG.debug("Ageable constructing");
			EntityAnimal animal = (EntityAnimal) entity;
			int growingAge = animal.getGrowingAge();
			int age = animal.getAge();
			boolean child = animal.isChild();
			Polycraft.LOG.debug("gAge: "+growingAge+", age: "+age+", child:"+child);
			if (animal.getGrowingAge() <= -23000) {//-24000 is set during createBaby
				BlockPos p = animal.getPosition();
				Polycraft.LOG.debug("A baby is born at " + PseudoLogger.toStringNullSafe(p));
			}else{
			}

		}
	}
}

 

 

The issue is now, that I got the feeling that this event is not fired during spawing the baby-animal.

 

I'm using forge version 12.16.1.1887 and looking forward to get some hints on how to solve this.

PS: The overall goal of my attempt is to check upon birth if the parents (nearest two adult animals, I guess) do have some attributes (capabilities) and apply these to the child.

Thank you that was helpful indeed.
