The blocks get into stacks from to far or close from each other! PLEASE FIX ASAP <3

That is intentional. As I understand it, it is done to reduce load on the server and clients. While you are mining, for example, a stack of cobble would be represented by one entity rather than 64.

Pretty much what Pab said. It's intentional to reduce server and client lag.

So chances are they won't fix it I wasted like 2 hours trying to make that

yes unfortunately, sorry man. you might look into other ways. this one i believe is a 1:5 chance of winning if you would like to use it

Bug or not, next time if you think you have a bug please pm aikar: Here

You don't want a bug getting leaked out

Just space the items out by 5 blocks, and they won't group.

also lotteries are illegal per emc rules.

i belive that this would be considered a slot machine

You are correct...

I prefer to view these sorts of things as learning experiences. Consider your work an experiment. Now that you understand what is happening you can work around it or even find a way to use it to your advantage.

Its a Spigot optimisation thing. Grouping items together is less laggy than single items.

Alright thanks guys Ill try and make the slot machine wider

That will likely fix your problem. good luck

thanks
