[SOLVED] [1.12.2] Making entities spawn with mod items?

[Differentiation]

Hey,

 

I was wondering if there's any way to make any entity spawn holding/wearing an item from my mod.

 

any help appreciated.

 

Thanks

If you subscribe to EntityJoinWorldEvent, then you should be able to access the entity through the event and change it however you want to.

I tried to do this with LivingSpawnEvent and having zombies spawn with a certain item only 1/10000 chance but it's still very frequent...

Show your code.

	@SubscribeEvent
    public static void onLivingSpawn(LivingSpawnEvent event) 
	{
		EntityLivingBase entityliving = event.getEntityLiving();
		Random rand = entityliving.world.rand;
		EnumDifficulty difficulty = entityliving.world.getDifficulty();
		
		if (entityliving instanceof EntityZombie)
		{
			int i = rand.nextInt(difficulty == difficulty.EASY ? 20000 : difficulty == difficulty.NORMAL ? 15000 : 10000);
			int j = rand.nextInt(difficulty == difficulty.EASY ? 20000 : difficulty == difficulty.NORMAL ? 15000 : 10000);
			
			if (i < 1 && entityliving.getHeldItemMainhand().isEmpty())
			{
				entityliving.setHeldItem(EnumHand.MAIN_HAND, new ItemStack(DinocraftItems.LEAFERANG));
			}
        }
	}

For some reason I see a zombie spawning with this item once in 3-ish nights. What is the chance that they spawn with Iron or Diamond swords and stuff?

LivingSpawnEvent is a parent event for several sub-events. Subscribing to just LivingSpawnEvent subscribes you to all sub-events, which is not meaningful in any way.

So... EntityJoinWorldEvent is the better way out?

No. EntityJoinWorldEvent fires every time an entity enters a world. Regardless of if it's a newly spawned one or one that's loaded from disk.

You probably want LivingSpawnEvent.SpecialSpawn, which is used to initialize newly spawned entities.

Thanks

 

Also, do you happen to know in what class MC spawns mobs with armor and what are the chances?

Do you mean about line1000 - 1200 in EntityLiving?
