Mansion and end city structures have missing or incorrect author
if you unzip the 16w39c.jar
and locate the structure folder within the assets.
open the folder for the mansion.
using a 3rd party tool (just to read the nbt data) open entrance.nbt
the 'author tag' for this, and all other structures from the mansion are Player640, Player969, etc...
what is supposed to happen is the name should be stored there, if Searge made those structures, his name would be there, if jeb_ made it, his name would be there...
You can also manually save a structure using the structure blocks, you hit save, locate the file in your saves folder. and find that the author tag is ("Player" + number) instead of your name.
In the screenshots you can see this.
The name of the player who hits the save button in the structure block should appear next to the "author" tag.

relates to



as a side note, the author value is inconsistent throughout all the structures. Although jeb_ made (presumably) all the end city structures, some author tags are empty.
Searge had 2 account names Searge and Searge_DP
This is just due to creating these structures with different accounts.
The bug shows ("Player" + number) regardless of the account name.
It doesn't save the player's name.
This previously worked fine.
The title is a little bit misleading because it only affects mansion / end city structures. Could you please change it to something like "Mansion and end city structures have missing or incorrect author"
This is a false edit. When you manually save a structure, it also has incorrect author.
Reproduce by
1: place strucutreblock
2: define size and position and name
3: save structure
4: open saves world folder
5: find the structure
6: open with nbt editor
7: value for author, clearly is incorrect.
That's a different issue, this is about the default structure files.
Attached Fixed files.zip containing all current structures with the corrected author tag (even structure files that were unaffected, but just so they can replace all files in one go).
AgentM, what you are talking about might be
MC-108147Yes, I created all the mansion pieces. The reason why they don't have "jeb_" as the author is because when I run the game in development mode I don't bother loading my real profile, so I'm assigned a random player name.
I've marked this as "wont fix" since it's a hassle to fix it and little is gained.
