No event called on destruction of ghost entity
Posted: Mon Jun 05, 2017 10:12 pm
I have been playing with the event API for item destruction and I have the events registered for entity destruction.
I can see that when I place a ghost entity and then mine it, some of these events are called - specifically, on_preplayer_mined_item.
If I use the deconstruction planner to remove the ghost entity, however, none of these events are called.
I have the following events registered to listen for destruction of an entity:
and in each of the handlers I print a log message indicating the event that occurred.
Expected:
- One of these events is called when a ghost entity is destroyed with the deconstruction planner
- Consistent with what happens when a user mines the entity
What happens:
- None of them are called
