EntityMoveEvent ?

Does anyone know a event, which listens when a entity moves?

 

@TheDevZone

There isn't a native one in Bukkit, however BkCommonLib provides one. What were you looking for?

 

Im making a zombiesurvival server, whatever, zombies shouldn't be allowed to enter the safezone.
I want to throw them back to the map, if they enter the safezone.

 

@TheDevZone

You can either use BkCommonLib or you can check the zombies on the server every few ticks and despawn them if they're in the safe zone.

 

Which of these two options in your opinion, are the most performant?

 

@TheDevZone

That would depend on how EntityMoveEvent is implemented. I don't know, but honestly I don't think it will matter, as long as you're not checking every tick.

 

Thank you I will check the Location every 3 seconds

Edit:
Works perfectly.

Thx again.

 

@TheDevZone if your issue is fixed, please mark this thread as solved
Thank you -boom

 

If it become a performance issue, maybe you're better off checking for when Zombies target an Entity.. if the entity is inside the zone, it won't follow it?

 

@Scimiguy What if the zombie wasn't targeting an entity but it wandered in to the safezone?

 

Of course there's that main downside, but it should be far more performant, and they wouldn't be attacking anyone in there anyway.

Otherwise yeah, just run a Scheduler every now and then to check like suggested above

 

My Server runs with 18.80-19 TPS & i installed dynmap. So it's really performant.
