Problem with EntityType

Right now i'm trying to get every mob/animal.

The code below doesn't work because. Incompatible conditional operand types EntityType and Creature.

PHP:

for (EntityType et : EntityType.values()){
    if(et instanceof Creature){
        def.put("entity."+et.getName(), 1);
    }
}

I cant find a way of getting all the mob/animal types but filtering out all the others. Any help appreciated.

 

what are you trying to do exact? you want all entities?

Code:java

World world;
java.util.Collection< org.bukkit.entity.Creature mobs = world.getEntitiesByClass(org.bukkit.entity.Creature.class) ;

Edit, using [.syntax=java] [/syntax] is more recommends than using [.php][/php]

 

I'm trying to only get Mobs/Animals, not other things like minecarts/items/thrown ender pearl/falling sand.

 

look at the follwing part:
world.getEntitiesByClass(org.bukkit.entity.Creature.class)
as you see, its only getting "org.bukkit.entity.Creature", thats is what you want?

 

That only gives me, Where are all the other mobs?

Code:

entity:
  Pig
  Chicken
  Cow
  Villager
  Sheep

 

it only gives the existing entities at the world of that kind

 

Thats useless...

I might as well just use the deprecated type, CreatureType. It does what I want, nothing you suggested has exactly this.
