NBT format

Block entities are stored using NBT in the following format:

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object]: A block entity
  • [String] id: Block entity ID
  • [Boolean] keepPacked: 1 or 0 (true/false) - If true, this is an invalid block entity, and this block is not immediately placed when a loaded chunk is loaded. If false, this is a normal block entity that can be immediately placed.
  • [Int] x: X coordinate of the block entity.
  • [Int] y: Y coordinate of the block entity.
  • [Int] z: Z coordinate of the block entity.
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] components: Optional map of data components that are not represented by additional fields.
    • See Data component format § List of components.
  • Additional fields depending on the block entity type ([String] id), see Block entity format § Types

  • Tags common to all objects that use loot tables to produce items see Template:Nbt inherit/lootable/template
  • [NBT List / JSON Array] Items: List of items in the container. Represents the minecraft:container component. The component is still present on the block entity, even if the tag does not exist (due to a loot table existing instead).
    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object]: An item, including the slot tag. Barrel slots are numbered 0-26, 0 starts in the top left corner.
      • An item stack in a container slot see Template:Nbt inherit/item/template

beacon

  • [String] primary_effect: Optional. The primary effect selected, see Potion effects for resource locations. Cannot be set to an effect that beacons do not normally use. Although Regeneration cannot normally be chosen as the primary effect, setting this value to minecraft:regeneration works and even allows Regeneration II to be chosen as the secondary via the normal beacon GUI.
  • [String] secondary_effect: Optional. The secondary effect selected, see Potion effects for resource locations. Cannot be set to an effect that beacons do not normally use. When set without a primary effect, does nothing. When set to the same as the primary, the effect is given at level 2 (the normally available behavior for 5 effects). When set to a different value than the primary (normally only Regeneration), gives the effect at level 1.

If set to -1 (this state never occurs in a natural spawner; it seems to be a feature accessed only via NBT editing), the spawner resets this and SpawnData as though it had just completed a successful spawn cycle, immediately when a player enters its range. Setting this to -1 can be useful if the player wants the game to properly randomize the spawner's Delay and SpawnData, rather than starting with pre-defined values.
  • [Short] MaxNearbyEntities: Overrides the maximum number of nearby (within a box of SpawnRange*2+1 × SpawnRange*2+1 × 8 centered around the spawner block) entities whose IDs match this spawner's entity ID. This is relative to a mob's hitbox, not its physical position. Also, all entities within all chunk sections (16×16×16 cubes) overlapped by this box are tested for their ID and hitbox overlap, rather than just entities within the box, meaning that a large amount of entities outside the box (or within it, of course) can cause substantial lag.
  • [Short] MaxSpawnDelay: The maximum random delay for the next spawn delay. Requires the MinSpawnDelay and SpawnCount properties to also be set.
  • [Short] MinSpawnDelay: The minimum random delay for the next spawn delay. May be equal to MaxSpawnDelay. Requires the SpawnCount property to also be set, otherwise it defaults to 0.
  • [Short] RequiredPlayerRange: Overrides the block radius of the sphere of activation by players for this spawner. For every gametick, a spawner checks all players in the current world to test whether a player is within this sphere. Requires the MaxNearbyEntities property to also be set.
  • [Short] SpawnCount: How many mobs to attempt to spawn each time. Requires the MinSpawnDelay property to also be set.
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] SpawnData: Contains tags to copy to the next spawned entity(s) after spawning. Any of the entity or mob tags may be used. If a spawner specifies any of these tags, almost all variable data such as mob equipment, villager profession, sheep wool color, etc., are not automatically generated, and must also be manually specified (that this does not apply to position data, which are randomized as normal unless Pos is specified. Similarly, unless Size and Health are specified for a Slime or Magma Cube, these are still randomized). This also determines the appearance of the miniature entity spinning in the spawner cage. Warning: If SpawnPotentials exists, this tag gets overwritten after the next spawning attempt: see above for more details.
  • [NBT List / JSON Array] SpawnPotentials: Optional. List of possible entities to spawn. If this tag does not exist, but SpawnData exists, Minecraft generates it the next time the spawner tries to spawn an entity. The generated list contains a single entry derived from the SpawnData tag.
    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object]: A potential future spawn. After the spawner makes an attempt at spawning, it chooses one of these entries at random and uses it to prepare for the next spawn, overwriting SpawnData.
      • [Int] weight: The chance that this spawn gets picked in comparison to other spawn weights. Must be positive and at least 1.
      • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] data
        • Spawn Data see Template:Nbt inherit/spawn data/template
  • [Short] SpawnRange: The radius around which the spawner attempts to place mobs randomly. The spawn area is square, includes the block the spawner is in, and is centered around the spawner's x,z coordinates - not the spawner itself. It is 2 blocks high, centered around the spawner's y coordinate (its bottom), allowing mobs to spawn as high as its top surface and as low as 1 block below its bottom surface. Vertical spawn coordinates are integers, while horizontal coordinates are floating point and weighted toward values near the spawner itself. Default value is 4.

piston

  • [Int] facing: Direction that the piston pushes (0=down, 1=up, 2=north, 3=south, 4=west, 5=east).
  • [Float] progress: How far the block has been moved. Starts at 0.0, and increments by 0.5 each tick, including the tick on which moving the piston is created. If the value is 1.0 or higher at the start of a tick of the block entity (before incrementing), then the block transforms into the stored blockState. Negative values can be used to increase the time until transformation.
  • [Byte] source: 1 or 0 (true/false) – true if the block represents the piston head itself, false if it represents a block being pushed.

potent_sulfur

      • [Int] charge: How many sculk charges are being carried in the cluster.
      • [NBT List / JSON Array] pos: List of three integers representing the coordinates of the cluster.
      • [Int] decay_delay: 1, or 0 (true/false) - Not to be confused with update_delay. This controls the decay of the cluster. If this is true, then the cluster was spread from a sculk block or sculk vein, and this cluster can only spread to sculk, sculk veins, and blocks with the [Boolean] sculk_replaceable tag set to true. If this is false, then all the sculk charges disappear when the cluster discharges to a block that is not in the sculk family.
      • [Int] update_delay: Delay in game ticks until the cluster begins to discharge (or travel) after being created. Usually starts at 1 game tick when a cluster discharges to a new block.
      • [NBT List / JSON Array] facings: If the block to replace is an air or water block, the block is replaced with sculk veins, and the faces where the sculk veins are placed are stored in this list. The sculk veins never grow directly on the faces of a sculk block. The same thing is done to any air or water blocks that are adjacent to blocks that are adjacent to this sculk block, if sculk veins can't grow in the blocks adjacent to this sculk block without growing directly on the faces of sculk blocks.
