[1.9.4] Trying to make a certain effect happen with a specific material

[T-10a]

Hello,

I'm trying to make a custom material apply wither, and set the target on fire if the entity it hits is undead. However, it doesn't seem to apply this effect on hit.

Here's my code:

[spoiler=Sword Class]

package com.t10a.minedran.item.weapons;

import com.t10a.minedran.reference.Reference;
import com.t10a.minedran.init.ModItems;
import com.t10a.minedran.item.MaterialEffects;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.entity.EnumCreatureAttribute;
import net.minecraft.init.MobEffects;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemSword;
import net.minecraft.potion.PotionEffect;
import net.minecraft.util.DamageSource;

public class ItemCustomSword extends ItemSword {

public ItemCustomSword(ToolMaterial material) {
	super(material);
	setMaxStackSize(1);

	setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.COMBAT);
	setUnlocalizedName(Reference.ItemBase.MODSWORD.getUnlocalizedName() + "_" + getToolMaterialName().toLowerCase());
	setRegistryName(Reference.ItemBase.MODSWORD.getRegistryName()  + "_" + getToolMaterialName().toLowerCase());
}

    public boolean hitEntity(ItemStack stack, EntityLivingBase target, EntityLivingBase attacker, ToolMaterial material)
    {
    	MaterialEffects.effectsOnAttack(material, stack, target, attacker);
        stack.damageItem(1, attacker);
        return true;
    }
}

 

[spoiler=Material Effects Class]

package com.t10a.minedran.item;

import com.t10a.minedran.init.ModItems;

import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase;
import net.minecraft.entity.EnumCreatureAttribute;
import net.minecraft.init.MobEffects;
import net.minecraft.item.Item.ToolMaterial;
import net.minecraft.potion.PotionEffect;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

public abstract class MaterialEffects 
{

public static void effectsOnAttack(final ToolMaterial material, final ItemStack stack, final EntityLivingBase target, final EntityLivingBase attacker)
{
    	if (material.equals(ModItems.TUTORIAL))
    	{
    		if(target.getCreatureAttribute() == EnumCreatureAttribute.UNDEAD)
    		{
    			target.addPotionEffect(new PotionEffect(MobEffects.WITHER, 60, 3));
    			target.setFire(10);
    		}
    	}
}
}

 

Thanks if you can help.

Your

hitEntity

method doesn't override a super method, you can't just add random parameters to a method and expect it to be called.

 

If you'd used the

@Override

annotation, you would have already known this was the problem.

Oops. Silly me. Thanks
