What spawn code do I need to use to spawn pine wood block in multiplayer? On some website I saw something like 17-1 (17 for the sapling, and 1 for pine since 1 is the type of a sapling).. But when I try spawning 17-1, i get the "There's no item with id 17-1" message. Oh and I tried googleing, but can't find the code anywhere.. Hints? Thank you.

(using up-to-date Minecraft 1.7)

  • Tried "17:1"? Colon is what's typically used.

    please don't change the topic from wood to sapling again.. I want a wooden block, not a sapling. thank you.

    People were changing the title because you said "sapling" in the question. I've fixed it for you.

Vanilla support for this has been added. The syntax is:

/give <playername> <data-value> [amount] [damage-value]

Note that if you specify a damage value, you must specify an amount.

So for this specific case, you would use:

/give <your-name> 6 <how-much-you-want> 1

You can't spawn things with special data attached in the base game, such as pine saplings or colored wool.

You need a mod, like bukkit.

Then, the command would be /give BlueRaja 6:1 64

  • I installed bukkit, and I still can't get neither 6:1 nor 17:1... that's strange.. I guess?

    @pootzko: you'll need to install essentials for bukkit - see here

Update

Ok, I've actually set up a server on my machine and tested this, it appears that with a vanilla Minecraft server the suffices for different types of sapling do not work, so you can only spawn 'plain' saplings.

(Old Answer)

From the wiki it appears to be 6. Try 6:1.

  • @pootzko You need a number, space, dash, space, number, for example /give bob 17 - 2. However this won't work with a quantity as well, it will only give 1

  • @Dan - well, I don't really need this any more at all since now one can simply use creative mode.. =)

I've had this problem too but I got it to work.

/give [your name] 17 64 1

The Damage Value is the second part of the ID after the colon :
