Adding Container and gui to LivingEnity or LivingEntityBase?

[clowcadia]

So i am trying to make living entity to have a container and a way to access that with a gui, i been able to attach a gui before but not a container. I learned how to add a tile entity to a black and container and a gui doing so, but now i am trying to apply what i learned to a living entity or a living entity base. I notice in base code it already has the NBT stuff that one would usually apply to a block entity so i think i should use that. but i am not sure what i am doing. as as far as I learned i still need a tile entity to use with a container. can any one offer some advice or some help with this matter

Try looking at the class EntityHorse to see how it opens the GUI of the horse.

 

EDIT: found something at line 750

Seems like horse class is a class that extending other classes that extend others. is that sometimes what is required for using methods from multiple of classes>

[clowcadia]

Say if i wanted my own entity class that extends Entityliving class could i use it as an entity living class and can i use its methods by overriding?

[Leomelonseeds]

Well look at the horse code. It implements IInventoryChangedListener, so you will probably want to implement that too.

Wow, now i dont know where to start... reading the abstract horse class i learned that it has a container class that it calls to it but no entity class, or is it a entity class all on its own

My entity horse only goes to 300 something what do u mean

[clowcadia]

Also not concearned about opening the gui, i am concerned about the data saving of the entityliving slots and the container is required for all of this to work

i am also guessing u meant 250

What you need to do is the same thing you would for a TileEntity. Create a IItemHandlerModifiable field in your Entity and override hasCapability and getCapability in your Entities class. Read the docs specifically the Using an Existing Capability section.

But how do i attach the tileentity to the class that is extended to entity livng

Not a block. Treat your Entity like you would a TileEntity for this.
