Craft for spawner

[me1]

How can I make a craft for a spawner with a special entity in it?

A crafting recipe for a spawn egg? Or a spawner block with a mob in it?

 

If it's a custom item, make a normal crafting recipe for it.

 

If it's a Minecraft spawn egg (from MC's SpawnEggItem) to spawn a custom entity, the Minecraft spawn egg system is not good for modding. You're better off making a custom item to spawn the entity, then following my last suggestion.

Sorry for not being very clear: I want to make a craft for a spawner block, which will have an entity from my mod in it. As I understand from your post, you thinkI should make a custom Block extending SpawnerBlock and change the spawned Entity? Where would I change that?

(I'm on 1.15.2)

Here is my base spawn egg class, which will set a Monster Spawner to the entity of the spawn egg.

I don't know on the subject otherwise, but I hope the Monster-Spawner-Setting code will help...

(You'll be most interested in the stuff from line 89)

Are you even paying attention to what the OP wants?

They want to craft a spawner block with a certain entity in it, which is something I have little experience of, so I gave the only bit of experience I had with dealing with spawner block tile entities.It isn't ideal, but I figured that the example would have at least some value with diesieben's suggestions.

Yeah, your code is useless for what D7 suggested. You're using spawn eggs to change the spawn entity of an existing spawner block and doesn't deal with stack NBT at all.
