[1.9.4] EntityAnimal.getGrowingAge()

[cruXcon]

I am using Forge 1.9.4-12.17.0.1940 trying to check if an Animal is able to create a new Child. In the last versions i could check if getGrowingAge() == 0. The function description of getGrowingAge is:

    /**

    * The age value may be negative or positive or zero. If it's negative, it get's incremented on each tick, if it's

    * positive, it get's decremented each tick. Don't confuse this with EntityLiving.getAge. With a negative value the

    * Entity is considered a child.

    */

 

Now the problem is, that getGrowingAge() never is 0. It is 1 for adult animals and -1 for children. Normally it should trend to 0 but it doesn't seem to change a little bit. Is this behavior a Forge bug or my fault?

was this changed in 1.9 or why isn't it working anymore?

And isn't there another possibility to proof whether an animal is ready for breeding?

[cruXcon]

so this was removed in 1.9 or why has it worked before?

That is too bad. Thank you for your quick reply
