 Description   

Let Zombie implement Ageable.  It doesn't make sense why it would have separate setBaby isBaby methods when just having it extend Ageable would suffice. It has 2 states just like a Villager, and Villager extends Ageable. Why wouldn't Zombie?

+1 for adding a common Babyable interface for everything that provides set/isBaby methods. With 1.16 there seem have been a few more mobs added to which this would apply as well.

I understand it's a preference at this point, but for the sake of a consistent API implementation, is there any way we can rework this and provide a separate interface for entities that are 'ageable' and for those that are 'breedable'

Comment by Cynthia Yantis [ 25/Apr/19 ]

Not sure how I feel about this: Ageable indicates the ability for the entity to "grow up" per se. I do like the idea of a new interface for it to a degree though.

Babyable

 

Bit icky (better name maybe...), but it is an option

Comment by Jacob Abernathy [ 18/Apr/19 ]

Maybe the interface names should be changed to something more fitting. Technically, Zombies are'ageable'

Because Ageable has far more methods than that.

For example Zombies don't breed, but Villagers do.
