Thursday or Friday I used a spawner and moved it. When I broke it, it disappeared. I didn't know what to do, so I contacted A_man. He came and looked, and told me yeah it broke but there was nothing anyone could do. I wasn't going to post about it because of that, but I see that someone else had an issue earlier this week also. It was a villager spawner that belongs to Nateeeeee, and I've been trying to find one to replace it since. If it can be restored, that would be fantastic, since I really feel this was not my error, that it was a game bug.
@KiwiAngelTwist We, Nyte and I, had a similar thing happen to us a few days ago. The spawner completely disappeared and we couldn't find it, then it suddenly reappeared on the ground. This happened over the course of about 3 minutes.
I stayed and looked for nearly 15 minutes afterwards :/ During that time (within the first 3 minutes) A_man came and helped look also. Could it be because of the lag, you think?
@KiwiAngelTwist I'm assuming you have the correct skyblock rank for breaking and picking up spawners? Which tool did you use to break the spawner by the way? I'd need a way to reproduce this bug to try and find a solution. Regardless of what I try, I can't seem to reproduce this.
@KiwiAngelTwist the one that we had that disappeared was actually a village spawner also, we dropped it down onto netherrack. Not sure if any of that is relevant but just in case. Like I said ours did reappear after a few minutes.
I've tried everything and cannot reproduce this. I've been using combinations of villagers spawners, other spawners, netherrack, etc. Including all pickaxe types.
The only thing I could figure is that there was a minute chance that as soon as it dropped it despawned. Nateeeeee suggested that might be the case, and I have had things that dropped and instantly despawn, just nothing this aggravatingly important. Ah well, wish I knew.
its called butcher, when items on the ground despawn. sometimes it happens right when people break/throw stuff. thats how startools have been lost in the past by users and what not. its just a sucky occurence
I do know that items have just disappeared after itemizing them. I tried to relog, I immediately got someone over to help, and I scoured the area with A_man for a while before giving up. Other than that, I'm not sure what to say/do. I even found a few others who apparently similar things happened. I even entertained the notion that the villagers might've picked it up, but that sounds even stupider than the other crazy explanations.
I'm sorry, but unless exact reproduction steps are provided, with this being absolutely non reproducible, there is nothing we can do.
Was it over slabs? Just curious As i have had items completely vanish when thrown on a slab. Out of Inv. On ground vanish. Check inventory Nothing. Check area again Nothing. No item plops queue sound i play with it on. And then it appears in inv and not my empty hand
