ultra_reemun Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I want to be able to spawn an item as a drop, I think I need to use this.world.addEntity(); but I don't know how to get my item as an entity. Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your reply. I want a thrown Item to have a chance to drop itself when it hits the ground, would I still use Loot Tables for this?

Ugdhar Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Scan vanilla code for something to drops an item. You should try looking a little more in the vanilla code, it's really useful and has lots of stuff to learn from/give ideas, I notice that you ask a lot of things without trying/looking first. You'd be surprised what you can accomplish if you check out existing code that does things similar to what you want I did a quick search in my IDE for something that calls ItemEntity and the LecternBlock popped up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the advice! I feel bad for taking up all the team's time with basic questions so I'll start looking into the code myself, Thanks for all your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But dig through some vanilla code first, see if you can find examples, also searching the forums often yields great results. I was messing with custom shields for fun, and couldn't figure out why the texture wasn't working, and searching on here led me to the answer without having to make my own topic and ask 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
