expand "get_spider_legs" to non spider-vehicle entities in runtime stage

Post by minecrafter8001 »

"get_spider_legs" currently only works on spider-vehicle entities and there's no easy way to identify the owner of a spider leg entity during runtime

something similar does exist for segmented units in the form of "segmented_unit" which has an object for the whole segmented unit and all its segments, but there isn't one for spider-units and i can't think of a valid reason why this should exist for one but not the other

I'm a bit confused, is this about getting the legs of spider units, or the spider vehicle/spider unit of spider legs?
