Adding a GUI/Storage to an entity

[Flenix]

Hey guys,

 

I'm taking a break from my first project while I try and work out a bug in that, and started a second one.

In this project, I am making a mob, which will follow the player and acts as a chest.

 

 

Does anyone have a link to a good tutorial for something like that? I only need the chest on the mob part (Not graphical, just you right-click it and it opens a chest GUI which is saved)

How would I use player.openGui? Everything I can find on the web is in reference to blocks, not mobs.

actually, more or less, I do it like this:

 

public boolean interact(EntityPlayer entityplayer)
{
// some other stuff ...

// some checks if gui should be opened etc ...

entityplayer.openGui(ModChocoCraft.instance, 0, worldObj, this.entityId, 0, 0);

// ... some more other stuff bla bla ....
}

 

 

in the entity class. The interact method is compulsory for every mob entity class (inherited from the vanilla classes), but you probably know that
