Having trouble spawning my new mob naturally (though I can through events and what not). I am able to spawn vanilla mobs in over-world using this code, such as ZombiePigman, but it won't work for one I made.

 

Entity Class

Spoiler

public class Skeleton2 extends AbstractSkeletonEntity {

	protected Skeleton2(EntityType<? extends AbstractSkeletonEntity> type, World worldIn) {
		
		super(type, worldIn);
	}
	
	@Override
	protected void registerAttributes() {
		
	    super.registerAttributes();
	    this.getAttribute(SharedMonsterAttributes.MAX_HEALTH).setBaseValue(50); 
	}
	
	@Override
    protected SoundEvent getAmbientSound() {
    	
	    return SoundEvents.ENTITY_SKELETON_AMBIENT;
	}

    @Override
	protected SoundEvent getHurtSound(DamageSource damageSourceIn) {
		
		return SoundEvents.ENTITY_SKELETON_HURT;
	}

	@Override
	protected SoundEvent getDeathSound() {
		
		return SoundEvents.ENTITY_SKELETON_DEATH;
	}

	@Override
	protected SoundEvent getStepSound() {

		return SoundEvents.ENTITY_SKELETON_STEP;
	}

	@Override
	protected AbstractArrowEntity func_213624_b(ItemStack p_213624_1_, float p_213624_2_) {
		
        AbstractArrowEntity abstractarrowentity = super.func_213624_b(p_213624_1_, p_213624_2_);
        
        if (abstractarrowentity instanceof ArrowEntity) {
        	
        	((ArrowEntity)abstractarrowentity).addEffect(new EffectInstance(Effects.POISON, 60));
        }

        return abstractarrowentity;
	}
}

                return true; 
             }
        );
        
        for (Biome biome : Biome.BIOMES) {

			biome.getSpawns(EntityClassification.MONSTER).add(new Biome.SpawnListEntry(skeleton2, 100, 1, 2));
		}
    }

Going to have to explain this one more.

Did you read the provided JavaDocs?

I'll go through it more carefully later, for now though I figured out a different way to get my mob to spawn (it replaces regular skeletons with a certain chance in checkSpawn Event), and this is a more desirable way for me. In the future though I'll probably have to learn this approach.
