Mob spawner without player nearby

I'm looking/requesting a plugin to allow the mob spawner to spawn mobs without the player being near or within 16 blocks.
or make a plugin to change the 16 blocks limit.

Thanks,
Gabriel.

 

You could use a plugin called ChunkLoader.
http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/chunkloader/
Go to the place where is your spawner and type in the command /ChunkLoader set.
Not sure will the plugin work, but it should load the mob spawner without you being near.

 

@Minecraft1o1 Pretty sure spawners act based on players, not wether the chunk is loaded or not.

@Mrgts Thankfully, this is a feature of vanilla minecraft. You can set a NBT tag for spawners to have a certain range. Check out this NBT editor: https://mcstacker.bimbimma.com

 

@Mrgts

You can do this by modifying the NBT of individual Mobspawners with

Code:

/blockdata <x> <y> <z> <jsondata>

This plugin automatically sets nbt tags in config: http://dl.ruptur.co/spawnercontrol

Only issue is the heavy spam output of the /blockdata command.

 

so i used the replaceblock command with custom nbt, but the nbt on the spawner always reset, why?

 

@Mrgts What version of CraftBukkit are you using? It may have to do with bukkit. But I'd not use replace block.. Rather, I'd use /setblock if I were you.

 

i use spigot 1.8.8 and i tried /setblock and it was the same thing
