[1.16.3] Spawn Entity on Server

[SkullFirez]

I'm quite new to modding (and forums), and I'm trying let the player shoot/spawn a custom entity fireball on right click. I made an item that shoots the entity correctly, but this isn't what I want. I think I need to send packets to the server in order for it to work, I'm just not sure how to go about it properly. I assume world.addEntity might not work, only because it doesn't show up in-game. Any help is appreciated.

I'm going to assume that the right click is with an empty hand. If so, you would definitely need to set up a network and send the packet to the server so World#addEntity can be called. If it's through an item, then you can just check the side within Item#onItemRightClick and then add the entity,

Got it working, thanks for the help!
