How to use

All the important classes extend BaseEntity so here is that class in a nutshell

• Constructor location = spawn location
• Uses item displays for entity scheduler
• Has a cancel method that gets called when the entity dies or despawns

How to create a boss

• Extend CustomBoss and set the spawn location and health
• Construct a hitbox using CustomHitbox and make that it teleports with the boss
• Do something in the tick method
• Make a class that implements CustomBehavior and do something there
• Use CustomBoss#SetBehavior and make an instance of the class implementing CustomBehavior
• Use whatever you want to switch behaviors if anything happens
• Use BoneBuilder to create an itemDisplay and make the model data for it to display a 3d model of a part of the boss
• Make something fancy with a lot of bones
• Finally, create an instance of the class extending CustomBoss somewhere

How to create a projectile

• Extend CustomProjectile and set the spawn location and contact damage
• Get the bone builder of it and make a 3d model of the projectile as how you did with the boss
• Do something in the tick method to make it move
• Make an instance of it, usually inside a custom behavior class
• Watch how your projectile moves

How to create a hitbox

• Inside your CustomBoss construct a CustomHitbox and adjust it as necessary
• teleport your hitbox with your boss or just leave it there
• Press F3 + B inside Minecraft to see your hitbox, it is an interaction entity
