[1.9.4]adding new nbtdata to vanilla mobs

[SuperLuke]

I'm trying to make an event, that when a vanilla mob is close to a certain block, that mob will be give a count down timer (just like zombies have for conversion) and when that timer reaches zero the mob will be struck by lighting, but the issue is that when one mob's timer reaches zero, all the the timers reach zero too, and that's just because I use an int variable to keep track of the timer.

 

So, I was thinking I could create a new nbtdata thing to keep track of the timer for each mob instead of an int, but I don't know how to do that.

 

if anyone could help me that would be great.

Create a capability to store the timer.

 

Forge itself has several capability examples, look at the usages of

CapabilityManager.register

in your IDE. There's also a test mod here.

 

I have some examples here: API, implementation

[SuperLuke]

it just crashes and says "Attempted to load a proxy type mymod.proxies.ClientProxy into mymod.Main.TIMER, but the types don't match" the TIMER being my Capability, what does that mean?

[kirinnee97]

I would like to know what is the best to about to sync the NBT or the Capability to the client

[SuperLuke]

oh, yeah my apologies. here you go, and i'm aware that my code may not make sense i'm a little uncertain on how Capabilities and nbt writing and reading works

 

Main file:

/*	PROXY INFO */
    	@SidedProxy(clientSide = "mymod.proxies.ClientProxy", serverSide = "mymod.proxies.CommonProxy")
    	
    		public static CommonProxy proxy;

    	@CapabilityInject(mymod.events.Capability.CorTimer.class)
	public static final Capability<mymod.events.Capability.CorTimer> TIMER = null;

 

 

proxy code :

public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy
{
   @Override
public  void preInit( FMLPreInitializationEvent event ) 
{
  super.preInit(event);
  ModEntities.RegisterEntity();
}

   @Override
public  void init( FMLInitializationEvent event ) 
{

	ModItems.registerRenders();
	ModBlocks.registerRenders();


}
   @Override
public  void postInit( FMLPostInitializationEvent event ) 
{
	super.postInit(event);
}
   
   
}

 

and the Capability code:

Why is the capability attached to your mod class, not the entity?
