SilkSpawners
SilkSpawners - Harvest mob spawners with silk touch
Version v8.0.0
Thanks for MILLIONS of downloads!
A sign shop addon for buying and selling spawners can be found here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/12028/
Description
Ever wanted to move a mob spawner? With SilkSpawners, you can now pick up and move monster spawners.
If you use a pickaxe with the silktouch enchantment you will receive the spawner again.
You can control each mob spawner, allow crafting and of course mod support.
I'm happy to hear about your opinion, just leave a comment with a feature request, bug, improvement or just a personal opinion.
As a reminder I want to say that I worked very long on this and really appreciate a 'thank you' in form of a donation! (See details on the bottom or the button on the top)

Known Bugs
- If sign shops are not working, you may want to try my custom sign shop addon: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/12028/
- Mobs like Ghasts or Giants are too big for the spawner, this a Minecraft bug and I can't fix that
- Some older Essentials versions/ports are not updated properly for 1.8. There is a maintained fork called EssentialsX you should try.
- If you use Gui Sign Shop and users are unable to place spawners, you need to grant them the guishop.spawner permission from Gui Sign Shop
- Holographic Displays makes Slime spawners non functional
- UltraCosmetics, causes some spawners to non function: https://github.com/iSach/UltraCosmetics/issues/259

This plugin is working fine on my server
There is an issue I wanted to try and prevent people from collecting loads of spawners not really an issue as only a certain rank can silk touch them however to prevent them collecting it I added a high xp drop for destroying it.
This now means them members that can silk touch them can get unlimited xp by silk touching spawner placing it silk touching it etc getting infinate xp. Is there a way to make it that you cant get the xp for breaking a spawner if you already placed it
For some reason this wont work on my server. I tried giving the silkspawn * command and i still cant mine the spawners.
Can you please fix this plugin for 1.5.1
@xGh0sTkiLLeRx
I'm currently running the latest Craftbukkit Development Build and your latest version of SilkSpawners and Permissions is set to true.
I tested those 2, one from here and one from Jenkins 1. R: SilkSpawners v3.2.1 [MC Version 1.5.1] for 1.5.1 Mar 20, 2013 2. Build #89 (21-Mar-2013 00:35:34)
usePermissions: true
I have set the silkdrop permission and still no one can pick up spawners. They don't drop. I have set individual perms for each creature and also .* Please help. Also I verified that usePermissions is set to true in the config.
@ForgenGod @xWTDx
Jenkins (latest) and this version are the same ;)
You both have the right version of MC and the plugin?
1.4.7 -> 3.1
1.5 -> 3.2
1.5.1 -> 3.2.1
Updated other plugins, using latest CB/Spigot?
Granted yourself the permissions and turned usePermissions to true?
@xWTDx
Same problem as me. I've downloaded the latest bukkit build and installed the latest version of SilkSpawner from this page and Jenkins. Hopefully they can get the plugin fixed for 1.5.1 soon.
My commands aren't working...:/ When I look at the spawner and type /spawner it just tells me "/spawner [creature][creature]egg:all /spawner <mob>" Also silk touch won't work either. I have permissions enabled and the correct version...Help please!
@Xkaka
Then you need to look for help at the page for your permissions system, sorry.
They know their plugins better then me ;)
(Since there are so many, PEX, bPerms, GroupManager, PermissionsBukkit, zPermissions, ...)
Hello please help me with this, i can't take away permissions from a group or block a certain thing. I wan't only a certain group to be able to mine and pick them up. Right now all my groups can. How can i change this, i've tried taking waway permissions and everything, please help =D
@great209
Have you turned usePermissions to true in the config.yml?
Hi, I've tried adding this node multiple times to let some players change spawners. I've tried both silkspawners.changetype.* or silkspawners.changetype.<creaturetype>. Doesn't seem to work. All they get is: http://scr.hu/0fo4/bfwbw
Any help?
@TheOnlyZaneboy
Essentials already allows you to sell it you just need to find the right ID's
@lukecfairchild
Yes, the code is untouched since months
Make sure you set it to silkTouch: 1, otherwise you need a plugin which allows higher enchantments.
Or set it to 0, to disable SilkTouch.
@TheOnlyZaneboy
No, it's not adding new IDs.
It changes the durability/data field of the spawner to change the mob.
A good shop plugin should support different data values.
Mod support for non bukkit entities is also possible.
@fisiks
Fixed after you enabled permissions?
Does this plugin add new item ID's for the other spawners (non-pig), making it possible to sell them with a plugin such as essentials?
Forget what I said earlier; permissions were disabled in the config :|
In the console, I get a notification saying that the plugin may not be up to date, but the commands work fine when used. Before the update, I was able to buy different spawners from the Essentials sign shops, but now every spawner automatically becomes a monster spawner (pig spawner). I have the permission node in my yml file, so I'm not sure what's going on. Any suggestions?
@xGh0sTkiLLeRx
Can you confirm that harvesting a mob spawner with silk touch or silk touch disabled is working. Cause its not for me. So if it is for you, its probably some plugin doing this.
The plugin works FINE on the latest builds!
3.2.1 works on CB #2709 (equivalent Spigot build is #729).
Permissions and /reload are working, too.
On my server and my dev server, running different OS versions!
@Octoepussy
Works fine for me!
@Octoepussy
Stated above, see here:
http://ci.dustplanet.de/job/SilkSpawners/
@bestlike2
What reports? On which MC version are you?
@CowTusks
Odd spawners? Have you any error you can provide?
Most of the 'odd' spawners crash anyone in a 300 block radius and its very hard to delete them!
