Entity setHealth?

Hi,

I'm a little noob at Coding trying to learn and after looking I've seen no easy solution to this.
I want a Zombie to for example only have 1 health instead of twenty, to then be able to add more features to after the Zombie dies.

But how do I change the Zombie's Health?

 

What you could do is check in CreatureSpawnEvent if the entity is zombie and if it is set his health to 1. Then you check in EntityDeathEvent if the entity who died is a zombie do something

 

Expanding on EcMiner, here's a little example.

Code:

@EventHandler
      public void CreatureSpawnEvent(CreatureSpawnEvent event){
        if(event.getEntity() instanceof Zombie){
            event.getEntity().setHealth(/* When you say 1, do you mean 1 heart or half? /* 1);
        }
    }
@EventHandler
      public void EntityDeathEvent(EntityDeathEvent event){
        if(event.getEntity() instanceof Zombie){
            event.setCancelled(true);
            event.getEntity().setCustomName("Hi, I'm dead!");
            event.getEntity().setCustomNameVisable(true);
        }
    }

 

Didn't bukkit remove entity.setHealth() since the 1.6 update? Correct me if i'm wrong

 

EcMiner
Nope, still there

 

But isn't it ambiguous?

 

EcMiner
Nope.

 

Nice! They probably changed it in the new bukkit 1.7 api cause i can remember that in 1.6 i had to cast entities to Damageable
