Solved Freezing a Mob.

Is there any possibility to freeze a mob? I've been searching for 3 hours and couldn't find anything.

 

• have an HashMap<UUID, Location> somewhere
• store entity UUID with the position where they were frozen
• schedule a repeating task that will teleport them to that location every tick

 

Thanks, but how to make him not attacking people?

 

cancel the EntityTargetEvent

 

Unless you expect the Entity to remain frozen after server restarts, you can also use EntityID (Integer value) instead of UUID. It's faster if you're doing this for hundreds of mobs at once, but does not persist.

 

Thanks. Solved.
@OffTopic: Can I disable chat in game?

 

cancel the chat event

 

How? I tried many things. :/

 

event.setCancelled(true)

 

Not working.
"event cannot be resolved"
Or I'm trying to cancel wrong event (PlayerChatEvent)...

 

AsyncPlayerChatEvent...PlayerChatEvent is deprecated, which should show up in your IDE. Shame on you for using deprecated methods. AsyncPlayerChatEvent is used now because chat is now handled in another thread.

 

Oh... But with AsyncPlayerChatEvent there is the same problem with "event.setCancelled(true)" :/

 

No PlayerChatEvent is advised if you do not know how to handle threads

 

Someone can help me?

 

post the code

 

I tried:

Code:

public void AsyncPlayerChatEvent(boolean async, Player who, String message, Set<Player> players)
{
    event.setCancelled(true);
}

And:

Code:

public void onChat(final AsyncPlayerChatEvent event)
{
    event.setCancelled(true);
}

 

GOD the overhead.... !!!!
There a better ways but we can't talk about those methods.

 

yup, overriding the NMS classes and use a boolean to toggle between normal and frozen, and when frozen the update is partially ignored

 

Solved.
