villager spawner spawn Villagers that don't take items from the ground

[homerek111]

Expected behavior

villagers spawned from spawners should not ignore food like carrots / bread

please fix this behaviour in 1.21.11, not in 26.X versions...

Observed/Actual behavior

Hello, villagers spawned from spawners ignore food like carrots / bread

if they are spawned by egg it works fine - but when they come from spawner they are not picking up loot

Steps/models to reproduce

place villager spawner on the ground -> let villager spawn -> drop him some bread -> he does not give a f**ck

to see how it SHOULD work -> spawn villager with spawn egg -> drop him bread -> he takes it

Plugin and Datapack List

doesnt matter - happens without plugins
