1.15.2 1.15 Mob riding?

I am trying to make passive mobs ridable and i was following a tutorial https://bukkit.org/threads/tutorial-1-7-5-wasd-entity-riding.163019/ and i believe that since it was made for 1.7 ( a version from over 5 years ago) it isnt accurate for 1.15, could someone help me make passive mobs ridable without making a seperate class for each mob?

 

That's smart, do you know how I would detect if a player wants to stay still or go in reverse?

 

I'm still very confused on creating a class, what do I need to extend, as it keeps telling me that the e function needs to return int

 

Fixed mounting rotating but i cant seem to get it to move forward, i tried multipling velocity but im unusre how to do it.

 

Thank you all for your help I eventually found It out and instead of hitting, I made it work like a carrot on a stick would, where the mobs only move when holding the stick

 

Also, I didn't save any data, I just looked through all players to see if they are a passenger and if so then if they have a certain item, this would be bad for larger servers but my server has never had more than 10 people on it

 

Thanks for everyones support i finished mob riding a few days ago! what i did was if you click a mob hile holding a certain item, you become a passenger of said mob, then the mob matches your yaw and pitch in a runnable, with also makes the mob walk when said item is held.

 

O of course! here you go

Code (Java):

@Override
    public void run() {

        for(Player p:Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()){
        if(p.isInsideVehicle()&&p.getVehicle() instanceof Horse== false) {
            Entity v = p.getVehicle();
            p.setFallDistance(0);//stops fall damage
            if(v instanceof Player) {return;}
            v.setRotation(p.getLocation().getYaw(),p.getLocation().getPitch());
            if(p.getInventory().getItemInMainHand()==null) {return;}
            if(p.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getItemMeta()==null) {return;}
            if(p.getInventory().getItemInMainHand().getType==Material.SADDLE){//checks to see if they are holding item
         
                Vector current_velocity = p.getVelocity();
                Vector walk_velocity = p.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(1.15);//propels them forward
                walk_velocity.setY(current_velocity.getY());//stops the mob from flying, remove this line to allow mob flight
                v.setVelocity(current_velocity.add(walk_velocity));//sets velocity
               //Code by hidden1nin
            }

    }}
        }

 

please don't just copy paste that though, take some time to try and understand whats happening
Also feel free to critique that and give me suggestions, im sure it could be alot cleaner!

 

Was that directed towards me? i never specifically learned java, i just scrounge what i can learn and throw it all together
