So I am doing a mod where I am playing with different tick rates using TickrateChanger API, and I have a few questions.

 

Is it possible to change the tickspeed of the entities in an area? I don't really care about the blocks updating, just the entities. The only way I have found to do it is to modify the server tick rate, but that is the entire server, not just the specified area.

 

How come all of the mobs (Sheep, skeleton, etc) are affected by the tick rate changes, but arrows aren't? They move at normal speed no matter what the server tick rate is.

 

Is there anyway to slow down the attack speed of the player? I know there is a way to do this, I am just really spacing it right now.

 

Thanks in advance

Also, could I make the arrows/other projectiles slow down their tick rate as well and how?

I think the forge way of doing entity update cancelation/management would be to use the event canUpdate for all entites deciding if they can update. For only living entities yse LivingUpdateEvent and if they are not supposed to update cancel it.

The CanUpdate event doesn't seem to work; Whenever I cancel an entity (using

event.setCanUpdate(false);

) nothing changes.

 

EDIT: Looked at the code for that event, it is only called when the entity CAN'T update, so trying to change it from CAN update to CAN'T update won't work because the even is never called while the entity can update;

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or is there another solution?

Put in a PR to forge so you can add/modify an event.

Thanks for the reply!

 

Where would I do that?

Prepare for a tedious journey of writing and rewriting.

A few tips for when you're editing vanilla code:

Don't touch the vanilla lines at all if you can avoid it.  That includes blank lines.  Don't turn a blank line into anything, just insert stuff above/below it.

Always make your call a call to ForgeHooks, "its shorter."  Always use fully qualified names (no imports).

Thanks for the tips!

 

I've tried to figure it out using a core mod tutorial, and I'm having some trouble. How do I find the line of byte code that I want to edit/remove? In the tutorial it uses opcodes of the functions, but I'm not sure how to find those. Here is the tutorial: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/mapping-and-modding-tutorials/1571568-tutorial-1-6-2-changing-vanilla-without-editing

 

Also, could you clarify want you meant by making my call a call to ForgeHooks?

This is not what we reccomended, making coremods is not supported by forge.

I'm following Draco18s's comment. He is talking about editing vanilla classes, which is a core mod

No he was saying you edit base classes then submit the change to forge ie you actually go into a .java file and edit the code to call an event. Hence the ForgeHooks call he was talking about. NEVER a coremod

Ahh that makes more sense, sorry about that
