Spawn multiple Entities

[Babelincoln1809]

I have an item, and I'm trying to get it to spawn multiple Evoker fangs. I can only get one to spawn if I don't have the current code in the class for spawning it. I tried multiple stuff. Here's my code.

This will never be true...

	    for(int spawns = 0; spawns > 5; spawns++) {
	      EVOKER_FANGS.setPosition(playerIn.posX + aim.x * 1, playerIn.posY, playerIn.posZ + aim.z);
	      worldIn.addEntity(EVOKER_FANGS);
	      
	    }

So what do I do instead?

for(int spawns = 0; spawns > 5; spawns++)

what you trying to do here is "while spawn is bigger than 5 (which is 0 at the start), this is true, and add spawn by one" <-- never going to be true, so change > to <

what is that 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 for? you should be able to just use the first constructor.
