[1.12.2] Add custom item to existing entity drop list?

[Angercraft]

How would one add new item to an existing drop list?

In my case I would like to add a new item to the pig drop list.

With difficulty.

 

Here's how I modify the loot tables:

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/1.12.1/src/main/java/com/draco18s/farming/FarmingEventHandler.java#L362

Note that this makes calls out to a library function, the important one is probably this one:

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/1.12.1/src/main/java/com/draco18s/hardlib/util/LootUtils.java#L87

Thanks Draco18s, I'll take a look at it

Can't you also just handle the LivingDropsEvent, test if the entity is a pig and add your item to the list? I guess maybe that wouldn't be a proper realization of the loot table system, but it works pretty darn good for just adding an item regardless of the rest of the loot system.

You can, but you should use loot tables instead.

I know this is 2 years later but can you help me with this problem. I tried to use your LootUtils and base on your FarmingEventHandler to make an item drop from a chicken. It did not work. Can you please take a look and let me know what is missing?

1.12.2 isn't supported on this forum anymore so this thread will be closed soon. Also for the future don't bump old threads make a new one instead. PM me if you don't find any answers to your problem currently I'm still working with 1.12.
