Overriding a Zombie

If I wanted to change the speed on an entity or attack damage of an Entity such as a Zombie how would I do that?

 

Not sure about the speed part, but damage a zombie does is like this:
EntityDamageByEntityEvent
Check if the event.getDamager() is a zombie
If it is, then do event.setDamage(some number);

 

I still need to know how to edit their speed :/

 

Try slapping a potion effect on them? I haven't tried it, but that would probably work.

 

I don't know if their is an easier way, but this method should work:

Your Zombie class would for example look like this:

Code:

public class FastAndStrongEntityZombie extends net.minecraft.server.EntityZombie
{
 
    public FastAndStrongEntityZombie(World world)
    {
        super(world);
 
       this.bw = customSpeed;
        this.damage = customDamage;
 
    }
 
}

 

This is simple, I want to override the bukkit class

 

the post above yours solves it. that's how i did it.

 

Go OOP and create a class that extends the zombie entity.

then modify the values of the super class. To spawn it, spawn the newly created class instead of a regular zombie.

 

yea but i want to speed up the zombie too

 

yea, and that's the way to go a custom zombie class that you override. the answers are here on the forums
