Forge Event for blocking mob spawners from spawning

[Conraad]

Working on adding protection for my mod and just want to now if anyone knows if Forge has perhaps a Spawner event that would block a mob spawner from spawning.

 

using the events I could find, I'm able to block spawning, but For the live of me when I place a mob spawn er next to my protection block it still spawns mobs, so would be nice if the event could turn of mob spawners completely in the designated X area.

Well,

searching for your block next to the event entity and decide whether to cancel or not ?

Use your block to scan the area around itself and then use magic to change the spawner properties.

 

Like setting the current time (NBTTagCompound.getShort("Delay")) to a number greater than 1.

I would delete the spawned tile entity on block placed and put it back on block destroyed

This makes no sense.

 

One does not place back a tile entity that shouldn't be there after you remove its parent block.
