Getting MobType and related actions

As I've seen in my code I had to add a 'Suppress Warning':

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")

So I am actually looking for a way to not use this SuppressWarning, code:

PHP:

    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
    public void onCreatureSpawn(CreatureSpawnEvent event)
    {
        if(event.getMobType().getName().equalsIgnoreCase("creeper"))
            event.setCancelled(true);
    }

Yeah, guess what, it's my creeperpreventer!


And my second question is, how do I change for example the health of a spawning creature? Would be nice to know as I have a plan for an upcoming mod

Thanks for your support!

 

Funny, I discover another post by you.
You can change the health of any LivingEntity using the setHealth and getHealth functions (or is it called methods in Java?).
Try changing the @SuppressWarning to @Override

 

yes, "methods" in Java.

the @Override annotation tells Java that you want this method to take priority over the Listener class which you are extending. similarly, the @SuppressWarning tells your compiler, "please don't show me warnings about this section."

 

The problem is that mobType is deprecated - you should use creatureType instead

 

Thanks! I will soon take a look into this.
