Solved Controlling mobs you are riding?

I am making a SIMPLE pets plugin and I have everything from naming them to having them follow you etc. The last thing I need is to have the player be able to control them while riding. Right now they can ride it however they can not control where the mobs goes and I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

 

Take a look at this resource: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/tutorial-1-7-5-wasd-entity-riding.163019/

 

Thanks,
I guess it's only possible with NMS?

 

Yes, there is no way to do such a thing with plain Bukkit.

 

Traks so I'm having some trouble with it, I mount the skeleton but can't control it.
For this portion

Code:java

 for (BiomeBase biomeBase : BiomeBase.biomes()){
            if (biomeBase == null){
                break;
            }
//more stuff after this

BiomeBase.biomes gave an error so I changed that to BiomeBase.n()
Also every time this appeared \/ I got an error

Code:java

for (CustomEntityType entity : values()){

So I changed that to

Code:java

for (CustomEntityType entity : CustomEntityType.values()){

I went to the main class and I made sure to run

Code:java

CustomEntitySkeleton.registerEntities();

But it doesnt work, any help on why?

Heres the move method aswell

Code:java

    @Override
    public void e(float sideMot, float forMot) {
        if (this.passenger == null || !(this.passenger instanceof EntityHuman)) {
            super.e(sideMot, forMot);
            this.W = 0.5F;    //the entity can walk over half slabs instead of jumping
            return;
        }
 
        this.lastYaw = this.yaw = this.passenger.yaw;
        this.pitch = this.passenger.pitch * 0.5F;
 
        //entity's pitch, yaw, head rotation
        this.b(this.yaw, this.pitch);
        this.aO = this.aM = this.yaw;
 
        this.W = 1.0F;    //climb up 1 high blocks
 
        sideMot = ((EntityLiving) this.passenger).bd * 0.5F;
        forMot = ((EntityLiving) this.passenger).be;
 
        if (forMot <= 0.0F) {
            forMot *= 0.25F; //backwards slower
        }
        sideMot *= 0.75F;  //sideways slower
 
        float speed = 0.5F; //0.2 is the default entity speed.
        this.i(speed); //apply speed
        super.e(sideMot, forMot); //apply the motion to the entity
    } 

Also I get this error

Code:java

23.07 21:31:24 [Server] WARN java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

on this line

Code:java

a.invoke(null, entity.getCustomClass(), entity.getName(), entity.getID());

from this part of the code

Code:java

    public static void registerEntities() {
        for (CustomEntityType entity : CustomEntityType.values()){
            try{
                Method a = EntityTypes.class.getDeclaredMethod("a", new Class<?>[]{Class.class, String.class, int.class});
                a.setAccessible(true);
                a.invoke(null, entity.getCustomClass(), entity.getName(), entity.getID());
            }catch (Exception e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

Could you not compromise and set the velocity of the mob based on where the player is looking? Just a suggestion

 

Luke_Lax I tried doing that but it was very glitchy however i figured out the pets thing just now, using http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/nms-tutorial-how-to-override-default-minecraft-mobs.216788/

 

WD_MUFFINFLUFFER It seems you've missed some huge chunks of the tutorial. That, and you are trying to use reflection without knowing how. Go read up on reflection and how it works, and re-look at that tutorial.

 

xTigerRebornx Yea, I'm gonna read up on that now. I figured it out yesterday however with this tutorial: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/nms-tutorial-how-to-override-default-minecraft-mobs.216788/
Thanks for the help!
