Posted July 22, 20205 yr So I've got a custom entity set up and it works just fine when spawned with an egg. I then wanted to have it spawn naturally, so I went and added a spawn to the entity registry of my mob's class (and to its placement registry), and gave it a set of biomes to spawn in. However, WorldEntitySpawner gets a nullptr here with the entity: Anyone know why this could be? Edited July 23, 20205 yr by k-off
July 23, 20205 yr Author Still can't figure this out for the life of me, I also tried adding the mob to the list of biomes and still nothing, the same crash.
July 23, 20205 yr So you have an entry in EntitySpawnPlacementRegistry and you've added a SpawnListEntry in the biomes to spawn in? I have no idea what this is: 3 hours ago, k-off said: so I went and added a spawn to the entity registry of my mob's class It always nice if you can show code and an error log rather than showing us where the error is. I also don't even see where this class is which leads me to believe that this is an outdated version based on the variable names. So, update to at least the LTS 1.15.2 if you want support.

Quote So you have an entry in EntitySpawnPlacementRegistry and you've added a SpawnListEntry in the biomes to spawn in? I have no idea what this is: Using forgeregistries I tried doing this which I found on another post here: public static void spawnMobs() { ForgeRegistries.BIOMES.getValues().stream() //This is just some randsom filtering but do whatever you want her, or dont filter at all //if you want your entity to appear anywhere. .filter(biome -> biome.getRegistryName().toString().equals("minecraft:mushroom_fields") || biome.getRegistryName().toString().equals("minecraft:mushroom_fields_field_shore")) //this is the main dish .forEach(biome -> { biome.getSpawns(EntityClassification.<depends on what you want>) //min and max refer to number of entities in a group. .add(new SpawnListEntry(<static reference to your entity>, <weight>, <min>, <max>)); }); }
July 23, 20205 yr Author I just went and tested this with a Vanilla mob, and it works just fine. Hmm. Edited July 23, 20205 yr by k-off

I still don't find it since its called from an entity type. 42 minutes ago, k-off said: net.minecraft.world.WorldServer.tick(WorldServer.java:212) Also, as much as you tell me this is 1.14.4, WorldServer was renamed to ServerWorld and WorldEntitySpawner was moved to a different package in that version making your statement a lie. Just for a bit more research, this line of code was referenced in at latest 1.13.2. There are things known as EntityTypes now. So once again. 1.13.2 is not supported on this forum. Update to at least LTS if you want support on your code.

For anyone with a similar problem in the future, I wasn't registering the entity correctly (make sure you're registering stuff that's supposed to happen in pre vs post, etc) and resolving that fixed it.
