how to return entities in a radius

[Acrogenous]

I would like to get all the entities in a radius around a block so that I can apply a potion effect to all of them. how would I go about doing this?

You can use World#getEntitiesWithinAABB to get all the entities in an AxisAlignedBB.

as far as I can tell that doesn't work anymore, at least the way I do it. can you please give an example?

 

[larsgerrits]

World#getEntitiesWithinAABB(Entity.class,  new AxisAlignedBB(x,y,z,x+10,y+10,z+10) will return every entity inside a 10x10x10 box and which inherents the Entity class.

Thank you very much!. I was trying to follow the old guides that had AxisAllignedBB.getBoundingBox which doesnt work.

 

 

edit: the potion effect function is only applicable to players?

The method to apply potion effects is defined in EntityLivingBase, so if you call World#getEntitiesWithinAABB with EntityLivingBase.class, you can apply the potion effects to them.

yeah I just noticed that, but thanks!
