Teleport Entity relevant to Pitch & Yaw

If you've seen the Earth to Echo minigame, then you probably noticed the little Echo robot in the corner of your screen, I tried to make something like that a long time ago, but it never worked. So I was wondering how I could do that!

This is a Minecraft mod, not a plugin which is supported here. Go look at the forge forums or something.

 

No it is not, I've played it myself. Please research before making assumptions.

 

mythbusterma Phasesaber It looks like a retextured, sitting ocelot

 

Huh, well in that case use Entity#teleport(Location), do some match with the player's location, yaw and pitch.

 

It's a retextured bat.

That just teleports it to the player's location, not what I want.

 

Phasesaber He said teleport it based on the Player's location, not teleport it to its location. You need to mess with yaw/pitch and the Player's location to get it in the spot you want.

 

Entity#teleport(player.getLocation().clone().add(player.getLocation().getDirection()); will show it 1 block ahead of the player.

 

unon1100 That works, but how would I get it to the right/left?

 

You may want to combine a few if statements and getDirection() s and .add(...)s.

 

Due to the body shape/position, I highly doubt it is a bat xD

 

I agree with fireblast709 here...

I went into the resource pack and found the texture. It was called bat.png. Then when I used it in a world, all the bats looked like that.

 

You may need to use trigonometry in order to set the location to the correct place. But yes, it is a bat.
