Minecart with Spawner
Minecarts with spawners are a combination of both minecarts and spawners.
Contents
Obtaining[edit]
Minecarts with spawners cannot be obtained as an item in the inventory, and can only be placed using the /summon command.
Usage[edit]
The spawner inside the minecart acts the same way as normal spawners; it has the same associated NBT tags.[1]
More exactly, a spawner minecart acts as a spawner block at the minecart's block position. In other words, if the spawner minecart moved within a block position, the range of spawn would not change.
Drops[edit]
When they are broken, spawner minecarts drop 1 minecart. The spawner will not drop even though it was in the minecart
