Spawners randomly stop working #17

Description (Required)

I noticed after having played on a server for around a month, that randomly Electric Spawners would stop spawning for extended periods of time, upwards of minutes at a time, with plenty of power supplying them. Recently this has become a permanent issue, with some spawners refusing to spawn mobs in certain locations.

When a spawner, which refuses to spawn mobs in a location is moved to a new chunk far away, it starts spawning again with no issues. But moving it back to it's former location, it continues to not spawn anything.

In this image, 2 Electric Spawners are visible, a Skeleton on the left, and Cave spider on the right. You can see that a Cave Spider is spawned, and that spawner works without any issues. But the Skeleton spawner on the left has not been spawning for weeks. Both of these are in the same chunk as well.

My thoughts

The only thing I could point to, which could help solve this mystery, would be, that for each Spawner / Block Location, the plugin might think a different block is placed, leaving it to not care about the spawner. Or, that the block gets forgotten by Slimefun 4 itself.

Steps to reproduce the Issue (Required)

I'm unsure of how to reproduce this. Being unsure of what's causing this, it's hard to reproduce

Expected behavior (Required)

Both spawners should spawn mobs

Environment (Required)

Minecraft and Slimefun Version
Addons
