Spawners

Stackable spawners that store their loot instead of spawning mobs, with limits, upkeep and upgrades.

Our spawners do not spawn mobs. Every 25 seconds, while a player is near, each one stores the loot its mobs would drop, plus some XP. That keeps the server fast.

For players

Place it like a block. Stack by right-clicking with the same type (sneak for the whole stack), up to 16.
Open with right-click to take loot or Collect XP.
Upgrade with stored XP: Faster and More loot, 2 levels each.
Pick up with Silk Touch (sneak for the whole stack). Stored loot drops when the last one is picked up; past 36 stacks the rest waits in /collect.
Share: look at it and run /spawners trust <player> (or untrust).
/spawners lists your spawners.

Limits

4 spawner blocks per chunk, 64 spawners per player, 45 stacks and 1,000 XP of storage. A full spawner stops until emptied.

Upkeep

With an economy, spawners use charges, bought 500 at a time in the spawner menu. Without charges a spawner rests. Set upkeep to 0 to turn it off.

Explosions

TNT and creepers knock spawners loose by default, with their loot. Turn Explosions knock spawners loose off to protect them. Protected regions are never touched.
