[1.7.10][Solved] Spawning EntityItem on top of block precisely?

[DanielDawn]

world.spawnEntityInWorld(new EntityItem (world, x, y+1, z, new ItemStack(modname.item, 1, 0)));

^That's what I've been doing. But, instead of spawning and staying there, the item sort of gets flung.

1.7.10 is no longer maintained by Forge. Please update.

 

• Items cannot be inside solid blocks, which here happens as it's spawns in slightly clipped into the block it's supposed to be on
  
• Spawn it slightly higher up, about 1.2 instead of 1.0

Okay, I'll try that, but about updating, I use some really outdated mods...

Edit: Still getting flung, going to try a bigger number. I remember doing this with y + 2, still got flung.

You know that x and z block positions are on the corner of the block, right?

[Matryoshika]

Ah, completely forgot,, it spawn with (as good as) initial velocity.

Take a look here: https://github.com/Matryoshika/Saligia/blob/master/src/main/java/Matryoshika/mods/saligia/tile/TileRitualCOTH.java

 

If you depend on outdated mods, try to find other up-to-date mods, or create your own.

Thank you both, that fixed my problem. Thank you for telling me about it spawning on the corner. I had a feeling it had some sort of motion.
