Hey all,

 

I'm trying to put all my spawn eggs in my mod's creative tab. Here's the code.

 

    public static final CreativeTabs creativeTab = new CreativeTabs(CreativeTabs.getNextID(), "modid") {
        @Override
        public ItemStack getTabIconItem() {
            return new ItemStack(ModBlocks.block);
        }

        @Override
        @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
        public void displayAllRelevantItems(NonNullList<ItemStack> itemList)
        {
            super.displayAllRelevantItems(itemList);
            itemList.add(new ItemStack(Items.SPAWN_EGG, 1, 0, getSpawnEggNBT("mod_entity")));
        }
    };
          
    private static NBTTagCompound getSpawnEggNBT(String name)
    {
        NBTTagCompound base = new NBTTagCompound();
        base.setString("id", "modid:" + name);

        NBTTagCompound nbt = new NBTTagCompound();
        nbt.setTag("EntityTag", base);

        return nbt;
    }

 

The spawn egg is displayed in my creative tab, however, there is no NBT on the item. Pretty sure I'm screwing up the getSpawnEggNBT() method. Thanks.

I need my NBT to look like this {EntityTag:{id:"modid:mod_entity"}}

I see it's called capNBT. What is that exactly?
