Entities

Registering Entities​

Entities can be registered using a BalmEntityTypeRegistrar.

public class ModEntities {

    public static Holder<EntityType<YourEntity>> yourEntity;

    public static void initialize(BalmEntityTypeRegistrar entityTypes) {
        yourEntity = entityTypes.register("your_entity", () -> EntityType.Builder.of(YourEntity::new, MobCategory.MISC))
            .withDefaultAttributes(it -> it.add(Attributes.ATTACK_DAMAGE, 2f))
            .asHolder();
    }

}

You can obtain a BalmEntityTypeRegistrar either through Balm.entityTypes(MOD_ID, ModEntities::initialize) or by registering your mod as a BalmModule.

Using an Initializer​

public class YourMod {

    public static void initialize() {
        Balm.entityTypes(MOD_ID, ModEntities::initialize);
    }

}

Using BalmModule​

public class YourMod implements BalmModule {

    @Override
    public void registerEntityTypes(BalmEntityTypeRegistrar entityTypes) {
        ModEntities.initialize(entityTypes);
    }

}
