/**
* Holds information about an entity that remains constant no matter
* its properties. This is typically data such as its identifier,
* its height/width, offset, etc.
* <p>
* This class can be used to register custom entities through the
* {@link GeyserDefineEntitiesEvent}. Custom entities can be created
* using the builder like so:
* <pre>
* {@code
* public static final EntityDefinition CUSTOM_MOB = EntityDefinition.builder()
* .identifier(EntityIdentifier.builder()
* .identifier("geysermc:custom_mob")
* .summonable(false)
* .spawnEgg(false)
* .build())
* .width(1.0f)
* .height(1.0f)
* .offset(1.0f)
* .build();
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>
* Within the {@link GeyserDefineEntitiesEvent}, you can then add the
* custom entity definition to the {@link GeyserDefineEntitiesEvent#definitions()}
* list. A resource pack utilizing this entity identifier will need to be
* provided for this to fully work.
* <p>
* Summoning custom entities on their own is not supported through the
* API exclusively. Third party extensions or plugins on supported platforms
* may provide an interface for this, but the current suggestion using
* the Geyser API exclusively is to listen for the {@link ServerSpawnEntityEvent}
* and modify the entity definition based on the data provided there.
* <p>
* An example of doing so is as follows:
* <pre>
* {@code
* @Subscribe
* public void onSpawn(ServerSpawnEntityEvent event) {
* if (event.entityDefinition().identifier().equals("mob_to_replace")) {
* event.setEntityDefinition(CUSTOM_MOB);
* }
* }
* }
* </pre>
