For Users:

Some mods may rely on things this mod does in the background to function properly. Just install it alongside any mod that requires it on both client and server.

Use Case: If a mod you have installed adds multiple spawn eggs for the same type of mob (i.e. for different variants), and one of the spawn eggs lost its color as a result, this mod may fix the color. 

Mods which rely on this:

• Wolf Variant Eggs
• Cat Variant Eggs
• Mooshroom Variant Eggs

For Developers:

The following steps are irrelavent for Forge/NeoForge. Just use ForgeSpawnEggItem.

This mod makes BY_ID#put() inside of the SpawnEggItem constructor call BY_ID#putIfAbsent() instead. While this change may seem minor, it makes a big difference when you want to have multiple spawn eggs with the same entity type (For instance, if you want spawn eggs which spawn variants).

A short tutorial on how to go about using this mod when adding something like a variant spawn egg:

1) Create a new class extending SpawnEggItem (Mojang Official Mappings, extend whatever this is converted to the mappings of your choice).

2) Create a public static ArrayList of type SpawnEggItem inside the class you created like so:

public static final ArrayList<SpawnEggItem> EGGS = new ArrayList<>();

super(entityType, i, j, properties);
[...]
EGGS.add(this);

@Override
public void onInitializeClient() {
    WolfVariantEgg.EGGS.forEach((egg) -> 
            ColorProviderRegistry.ITEM.register((stack, tintIndex) 
                    -> egg.getColor(tintIndex), egg));
}
