More code problems

Hey,

One question:

How do I add a specific Monster Spawner to one's inventory. What I mean by "specific" is; a blaze type for example...

 

You cannot, by default it's a pig.
But you can check the event block place and if the block is your spawner, you cast the block as a spawner and you can change the type of mob.

 

@Felixbakkum while it is still a itemstack you can add some lore to define the type of spawner when placed. then listen to a block place event and get the item lore of it to then cast the type as mentioned above

 

@guitargun Thanks, but can I do it by Displayname? or do I have to do it by Lore?

 

Whatever you can use to distinguish your custom item from normal ones later on.

 

What I did was give the Monster Spawner item a data value equal to what mob you wanted to spawn (for example, give it the data value of 54 if you want it to spawn zombies). Then when the spawner is placed, check the data value then set the spawner to spawn the entity type associated with that data value.

This can avoid the "if (item.getDisplayName().equals("Zombie Spawner")) ..." conditionals.
