I tried to create a bow enchantment, that adds shot arrows custom ability (like explosion upon impact), but it seems to be impossible in 1.10. I tried to use ArrowLooseEvent, but there is no information about EntinyArrow, that was shot, so I can't give it custom tag. I also tried EntityConstructingEvent, but for EntinyArrow is no way to get the entity, that shot the arrow, so I can't check if the is it the player with enchanted bow. Finally, I tried to get closest player to the arrow and test if he has the enchantment, but it always returns null.

 

 

@SubscribeEvent(priority=EventPriority.HIGHEST, receiveCanceled=true)

public void onEvent(EntityEvent.EntityConstructing event)

{

if (event.getEntity() instanceof EntityArrow)

{

EntityArrow arrow = (EntityArrow) event.getEntity();

System.out.println("arrow detected");

EntityPlayer player = arrow.worldObj.getClosestPlayerToEntity(arrow, 5D);

if(EnchantmentHelper.getEnchantedItem(ModEnchantments.blast, player) !=null)

{

arrow.addTag("explosive");

System.out.println("Blast detected");

};

}

}

 

 

I have absolutely no idea, why Forge doesn' t allow us to get the entity, that shot the arrow and why worldObj.getClosestPlayerToEntity doesn't work for me.

Thanks, the problem with worldObj.getClosestPlayerToEntity was, that the entity wasn't in the world yet at the moment the event triggered.

Oh, I didn't even see that... Don't use

getClosestPlayerToEntity

. Use

EntityArrow::shootingEntity

.

There is no getter in EntityArrow class.

shootingEntity is public

Sorry, but I'm still quite unfamiliar with Java. When I tried use Arrow.shootingEntity, it always returned me null. What should I do?

Post your code.

 

 

@SubscribeEvent(priority=EventPriority.HIGHEST, receiveCanceled=true)

public void onEvent(EntityJoinWorldEvent event)

{

if (event.getEntity() instanceof EntityArrow)

{

EntityArrow arrow = (EntityArrow) event.getEntity();

System.out.println("arrow detected");

EntityLivingBase player = (EntityLivingBase) arrow.shootingEntity;

if(EnchantmentHelper.getEnchantedItem(ModEnchantments.blast, player) !=null)

{

arrow.addTag("explosive");

System.out.println("Blast detected");

};

}
