minetest.register_on_die_entity about minetest HOT 7 CLOSED

I think it's acceptable for entities to handle their own events and for other mods to hook into the callbacks. So I'd consider this low priority

from minetest.

As an alternative approach, you could overwrite the on_death callback of the entities that are considered as "monster":

local function register_entity_as_monster(name)
	local def = minetest.registered_entities[name]
	local old_cb = def.on_death
	def.on_death = function(self, killer)
		my_achievements_callback("entity died", name)

		if old_cb then
			old_cb(self, killer)
		end
	end
end

register_entity_as_monster("monsters:monster_a")
