Unable to set name of villager

[pepper82]

I am trying to set the name of a villager or villager baby after I spawned it:

spawn 1 villager at player's location
set name of last spawned entity to "123"

It does not work!

Also tried

set display name of last spawned entity to "123"

Why?

Have you tried this? Not sure if it will work.

"spawn 1 villager named "123" at player's location"

"spawn 1 villager named "123" at player's location"

Does not work!

Btw. my mentioned code works fine for zombies etc.

Can you post your full code and your skript and addon versions please?

version:
v2.2-dev25

command /testmob:
    trigger:
        spawn 1 baby villager at player's location
        set name of last spawned entity to "123"

[doublepost=1493558388,1493557852][/doublepost]Actually I am unable to see any names above villager's head. But it's not a resource pack issue (I dont use one). Is this a minecraft bug?

What MC version are you on?

1.11.2 (Paper Spigot)

Well, now I see names above villagers. But only when manually placing a villager using a renamed spawn egg.

I am still unable to see names above villagers when spawning them using skript.
[doublepost=1493559249,1493558812][/doublepost]spawn 1 zombie
set {_last} to last spawned entity
broadcast "%{_last}%"

RESULT: zombie

spawn 1 villager baby
set {_last} to last spawned entity
broadcast "%{_last}%"

RESULT: <none>

Seems like a bug to me, but I need a solution for this until tomorrow. So any workarounds??

 

[ShaneBee]

Have you tryied

spawn a zombie #location
set the display name of the last spawned zombie to "#cool name"

??

 

[ShaneBee]

Yes tried that. I hope it is fixed with latest version of skript.

Try this.

command /testmob:
    trigger:
        spawn 1 baby villager at player's location
        set name of spawned entity to "123"
