[SOLVED]-[1.16.1] How to create an custom slime entity

Posted June 30, 20205 yr

I'm new at this minecraft mod thing, and i was trying to make custom entities. I got to make an pig and a zombie, but failed on making a slime.
I'm using the "GlobalEntityTypeAttributes#put" to define the Attributes of the entity, along with SlimeEntity#func_233666_p_ and SlimeEntity#func_233639_cI_ to get AttributeModifierMap.
But when i use the SlimeEntity#func_233666_p_ i get:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Can't find attribute minecraft:generic.follow_range

It would be good if you could show your code, that might help find the issue.

My guess is you didn't register MobEntity#func_233666_p_ in your FMLCommonSetupEvent for your specific entity type as that does initialize the follow range attribute with a value of 16.

Actually your answer in the topic 1.16.1 Custom Entity attributes helped me a lot understanding how to work with AttributeModifierMap, and i managed to finish the entity, thank you.
Now i'm trying to change the color of the slime. instead of having a bunch of entities i want an "template" that randomize in many colors (just like it happens with leaves), so i'll have slimes of many colors, i know it's not an original idea but it's just for practice. Should i open another topic about this?
Sorry by the english by the way XD.

Sure, but if you want that, you might want to take a look at the EntitySheep code.

[1.21.3] How to add effects to food?

game changed the way you create foods.
for example minecraft 1.21.8 code for the golden apple is

Foods.java
public static final FoodProperties GOLDEN_APPLE = new FoodProperties.Builder().nutrition(4).saturationModifier(1.2F).alwaysEdible().build();

Items.java
public static final Item GOLDEN_APPLE = registerItem("golden_apple", new Item.Properties().food(Foods.GOLDEN_APPLE, Consumables.GOLDEN_APPLE));

Consumables.java
public static final Consumable GOLDEN_APPLE = defaultFood() .onConsume( new ApplyStatusEffectsConsumeEffect( List.of(new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.REGENERATION, 100, 1), new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.ABSORPTION, 2400, 0)) ) )
