Bukkit

Why did you add a Silkspawner Shop addon? The shops were working great before and you didn't need to use the silk spwaner addon.

Hello! Players on my server has started to encounter a strange bug with SilkSpawners, this is a quote from one of them:

"When placing a spawner cage, in this case a zombie spawner cage the mobs that spawn are differant than mobs that spawn elsewhere in the game.

I use a water elevator system to raise my mobs 22 lvls so that they have only 1 to 1.5 hearts left when I harvest for drops and XP.

The problem is that SS-spawned zombies will not swim up and would rather stand with thier heads in water until they die. I created an outdoor through to verify that game spawned zombies act as expected.

The non-Silk Spawner created mobs work as expected.

The Silk Spawner works fine on "Test" server NOTE: SilkSpawners v3.7.1

It is possible some other config or setting may be preventing the zombies from swimming up?" - MoCaveman 2016-04-13 on Toasty Domain forums.

We are using the latest version of Spigot 1.9.2 and the latest version of SilkSpawners. We are also using the latest version of EssentialsX, and we have not messed around too much in the configs. I've done my best to find the reason for this, but haven't found any. Thanks for your time. Henriko

Hey there.

When someone on my server silk touches a spawner, for example: skeleton, and they keep it in their inventory and log offline, when they come back online and try to place said spawner, it says: Placing default spawner (either this spawner is invalid or disabled)

...and then turns it into a default spawner aka pig.

Running most recent silkspawners, and most recent EssentialsX jenkins build. 1.9.2 spigot.

Hi, Thanks for that!

That simultaneous joy and facepalm feeling. Thanks for the SpawnPotential heads up! Using MagicSpells external command spell to run

'give %a mob_spawner 1 61 {BlockEntityTag:{SpawnPotentials:[{Entity:{id:"Blaze"}}],Delay:-1s,SpawnCount:5,SpawnRange:4,RequiredPlayerRange:16,MinSpawnDelay:15,MaxSpawnDelay:30,MaxNearbyEntities:15,EntityId:"Blaze",Silent:1}}'

Finally.. works.

The detection ranges, spawn counts, delays and max count all work also. I didnt bother with mob attributes or custom drops but will :D Soon as update the loads of spawners. The Delay:-1s thing seems to effect if pig will spawn first or not? The EntityId:"Blaze" seems to tell SilkSpawners what spawner type it is on mouseover and place, it was the other thing that was breaking custom spawners.

Most excellent. If the sweetie noobcake breaks the custom spawner they still can mine the relevant standard type back up which is cool and thanks to you. MagicSpells will run massive commands like summon custom villager with tons of custom item trades 15k char command NP. Ty for suggesting the other plugin for the /give command but Nah! :D

With regards to getting SilkSpawners to handle custom stats spawners and record them so keep the stats when mine them? I see a plugin called PreciousStones is able to retain meta info of placed blocks that are mined back up? (name & lore anyway) It may just be canceling the blockbreak event and summon a loot item replacenemt with all the stats on it already? http://preciousstones.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Field_Flag_Reference#meta-name

Thanks again!

I cant believe I didnt +1 like Curselink this one yet. Done.

Paper Spigot MC 1.9.2 SilkSpawners V 3.7.1 to v3.7.2-SNAPSHOT-b334

Hi there. Since 1.9 upgrade we cannot get any type of syntaxt to work for custom spawners as described in bold in "features" of the plugin while SS is installed. We have enjoyed SilkSpawners on various servers since way back to 1.7.6 Bukkit glory days perhaps. It's cool plugin. Thank you much! The new bossbar thing is pretty cool, good job.

There is a pressing issue .. bacon.. mmmm too much of it?! Previously in 1.8 the custom spawners woked fine. After translating the old commands to the 1.9 new ones with the below advice we find SilkSpawners does not support this any more. We used to use essentials give command such as below which is run by MagicSpells in menus and SS never attempted to nerf or overwrite the spawners when placed. Now it kills them whatever syntax we use. :/ Pig. At first it placed normal then turned to pig then back to the normal mob type then after the first mob spawned it reverted to pig. Tried changing use meta: true etc it makes no difference. Use default spawner true/false.. uses default spawner regardless.

Proper spawners. http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Monster_Spawner

Example old command give %a mob_spawner 1 0 {BlockEntityTag:{EntityId:WitherBoss,SpawnCount:1,SpawnRange:7,RequiredPlayerRange:8,Delay:10,MinSpawnDelay:5,MaxSpawnDelay:10,MaxNearbyEntities:1,SpawnData:{Silent:1,CustomName:"§8§lSilence Banshee",CustomNameVisible:1,ActiveEffects:[{Id:21,Amplifier:2,Duration:9999},{Id:12,Amplifier:2,Duration:9999},{Id:11,Amplifier:2,Duration:9999}],Attributes:[{Name:generic.maxHealth,Base:4000.0}]}}}

How do we prevent SS overriding the spawners it deems broken without removing the SS plugin? The spawners are not broken.. they are just way more optimised, fun, safe or advanced than the ones SS gives.

What's the correct syntax for /ss give player mobtype amount {many cool options like max spawn range etc.} or does SS no longer support such things in 1.9+ ?

Essentials is blind to mob ids in spawners / eggs now. 383:0 and 52:0 regardless of what you /itemdb This was a major pain but we fixed that now just need the spawners to work. We have about 50 custom spawners! All of them spawn 1 custom mob and then revert to pig or break on place.

We do not allow pigs to spawn on the server. Is the only blocked mob/creature ... lol

/ss give playername mobtype amount works fine. ChestShop is buying and selling the ss spawners NP We just need the custom spawners!.

@xGh0sTkiLLeRx

Hello, I have spawners in my keycrates (on my server). After 1.9.. sometimes the spawners becomes pig.

Will this ever be fixed? Im not using the /ss give command. I know that. But before 1.9 . I could use the spawners from the crates. Without the spawners getting glitched.

Im on Spigot 1.9.2 .

@xGh0sTkiLLeRx

xGh0sTkiLLeRx Is there anyway you can add the ability to have multiple lines in the localization file? Or maybe a %linebreak% placeholder? please?

Still not working, still getting PIG spawners

Is it possible to disable silking a spawner that is not purchased via the server shop? Basically looking at stopping players from silking blaze spawners in the nether but still allow them to silk ones they purchase. 

Is the 1.9 plugin will still work for 1.8.8 spigot build?

@FEARMYSWOORD

Have that same problem as well.

every time is place a spawner it spawns 1 of the mobs i want and than the spawner changes into a pigspawner
