[1.8.8] Check if EntityThrowable is a Thrown Potion

[Swedz]

I'm currently using a EntityJoinWorldEvent event to get when a splash potion is thrown, but I can only manage to check if it is a EntityThrowable, how can I check if the EntityThrowable is a splash potion (and get the potion type)?

 

EDIT: Note that this is a client side only mod

Thanks, but for some reason `The method getPotion() is undefined for the type EntityPotion` is coming up.

 

Any reason for this? I looked around in the methods for EntityPotion and couldn't find it.

 

EDIT: Hold up, I just found getPotionDamage()... is this the potion ID?

In 1.8 the client does not get told about the actual ItemStack, I am not sure if you can obtain the potion effects there. I suggest you update, 1.8.x is becoming outdated fast anyways.

I would update, but this mod's main purpose is to be more useful in PvP, which most servers use 1.8 for combat.

 

The client has to be told about the potion effects, because how else would it color the thrown potion accordingly?

It's not told about the potion affect.  However, when the potion lands and shatters, it gets told about a particle effect and what color it should be.

Event for this?

There is ThrowableImpactEvent, but I am not sure if it exists in 1.8.

Yeah I looked at that before, but I found out it doesn't exist in 1.8.8.
