Nbt of Block

[Deleted member 5254]

Skript Version: dev37c
SkStuff: 1.6.4.1-fork-1.12

Okay, so I have figured out how to add NBT to an item. Basically what I am trying to figure out how to do is,
Create a spawner (check)
Give it to the player (check)
Change the spawner that was placed on the ground (help)
So THIS works:

command /test:
    trigger:
        give player spawner with nbt "{BlockEntityTag:{SpawnData:{id:""chicken""},SpawnCount:5,MinSpawnDelay:1,MaxSpawnDelay:2,Delay:1,MaxNearbyEntities:100,SpawnPotentials:[{Entity:{id:""chicken""},Weight:1}]},display:{Name:""chicken""}}"

YAY for that... but now I am trying to my damndest to figure out how to add NBT to a block
I placed a spawner, pulled the NBT and tried to add the same NBT back just for testing, and no go.
Here is my test

on right click on spawner:
    set nbt of event-block to "{MaxNearbyEntities:6s,RequiredPlayerRange:16s,SpawnCount:4s,SpawnData:{id:""minecraft:cow""},MaxSpawnDelay:800s,Delay:150s,x:287,y:64,z:199,id:""minecraft:mob_spawner"",SpawnRange:4s,MinSpawnDelay:200s,SpawnPotentials:[{Entity:{id:""minecraft:cow""},Weight:1}]}"

The error I get is:

[22:53:05 ERROR]: a types.compound can't be set to anything (test.sk, line 47: set nbt of event-block to "{MaxNearbyEntities:6s,RequiredPlayerRange:16s,SpawnCount:4s,SpawnData:{id:""minecraft:cow""},MaxSpawnDelay:800s,Delay:150s,x:287,y:64,z:199,id:""minecraft:mob_spawner"",SpawnRange:4s,MinSpawnDelay:200s,SpawnPotentials:[{Entity:{id:""minecraft:cow""},Weight:1}]}"')

The syntax in the docs is stated as:

nbt[[ ]tag[s]] of %entity/block/item%

I feel like I have tried everything. Does anyone have any clue how the heck to do this?

Thats actually the version I have been using. Its the only version that allows me to add NBT to an item, just not a block sadly!

Instead of setting the nbt of the block, try replacing the event-block with a new one:

set event-block to spawner with custom nbt "{}"

or maybe:

set {_spawner} to spawner named "asd" with custom nbt "{}"
set event-block to {_spawner}

I know this doesn't make much sense but doing enough hacky stuff like this usually gets SkStuff to do the job, i've been there too

Hey thanks, I have already tried both of those an no go. They don't throw errors, but it just places a normal pig spawner.

IIRC you don't set NBT, you add it. add the text to NBT of event-block.

I tried that as well... didn't do anything.

 

[Mr_Simba]

That's still probably due to SkStuff not working on new Skript versions, as other have stated.

you can use skript mirror

import:
    org.bukkit.entity.EntityType

set {_spawner} to clicked block.getState()
{_spawner}.setSpawnedType(EntityType.CHICKEN!)
whatever else you wanna set
{_spawner}.update()

UGH... i really need to learn how to use Skript-Mirror and understand all the Java stuff.. because I know that is probably my best bet in this case.
