Humanoid entities

Plugins Plugin Development
1

Hi!

Imagine I wanted to create one or more entities inside a Sponge-powered Minecraft world, which look like people and whose behavior I can program in my Sponge plugin. It doesn’t need to have any intelligence, I want to program his behavior myself. I want this in order to visualize some economic processes using Minecraft (a worker takes a piece of metal, goes to a workbench and converts it to some product for example).

What option is the best for this task?

  1. Villager
  2. Fake player
  3. Something else, e. g. some mod, which allows to create human-looking entities, which I can control with my code.

Thanks in advance

Dmitri Pisarenko

  1. ArmorStands with armor on. Legs, arms and the head can be moved separately.

You could also spawn Humans with EntityTypes.HUMAN. They function closer to creatures than players.

You can do that? Bukkit just kicked up wild and woolly exceptions.

Sponge creates them itself. They’re technically not EntityPlayers (CraftBukkit’s EntityHumans), but they appear as players to clients - even vanilla clients.
