Any idea on what's wrong with this code? The cop doesn't attack a nearby player like a zombie does.

 

public class EntityCop extends EntityMob {

    public EntityCop(World worldIn) {
        super(worldIn);
    }

    @Override
    protected void initEntityAI() {
        this.tasks.addTask(8, new EntityAILookIdle(this));
        this.tasks.addTask(7, new EntityAIWanderAvoidWater(this, 1.0D));
        this.tasks.addTask(6, new EntityAINearestAttackableTarget(this, EntityPlayer.class, true));
        this.targetTasks.addTask(2, new EntityAINearestAttackableTarget(this, EntityPlayer.class, true));
//        this.tasks.addTask(9, new AICop(this));
    }

    @Override
    protected void applyEntityAttributes() {
        super.applyEntityAttributes();
        this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.FOLLOW_RANGE).setBaseValue(35.0D);
        this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.MOVEMENT_SPEED).setBaseValue(0.23000000417232513D);
        this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.ATTACK_DAMAGE).setBaseValue(3.0D);
        this.getEntityAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.ARMOR).setBaseValue(2.0D);
    }

}

 

You didn't actually add any attack AI. You added the targeting AI, but not the attack itself. Also, you should not add the targeting AI task to the tasks list but only to the targetTasks list.

 

You need something like EntityAIAttackMelee in the tasks list.
