Entity following Entity

Hi, i'm trying to make a pet plugin, and i can't get the following part working.
So when I do

Code:java

Chicken chicken = (Chicken) e.getWorld().spawnEntity(e.getLocation(), EntityType.CHICKEN);
chicken.setTarget(LivingEntity);

It doesn't follow the LivintEntity.
Can someone help me with this?

thijs_a I believe setTarget(); has been broken for a while, correct me if I am wrong.

If you want to make a pet plugin, you'd need to re write the NMS.

 

What is the NMS ?

 

thijs_a Basically, you are adding or editing classes in the bukkit.jar. You can make custom entities, blocks and items using it.

 

Not entirely accurate. You can technically create new items, blocks, and entities, but only using existing things (no new textures, sounds, etc. without custom resource packs). NMS (the net.minecraft.server package) is more "tapping into" classes, for lack of a better term. You aren't really adding/editing anything.

As for the question, this tutorial should help you out.
