Hey, I want to link 2 blocks together one controller and one target block, so when the controller get redstone input at specific side it changed/replace the target block with a defined one. At the moment it works very well but it has a fixed distance between controller and target. So I want a variable distance and this should work with a link item, to link these blocks together. I think therefor I need the NBT tag but I don't know how this exactly works or should work. :-)
The question is, has anyone a concrete idea?
Thanks in advance!
Here a picture from the actual procedure:

2020.2 is not supported anymore, please update.
Updated to 2020.4 Snapshot 2 with Generator plugin for Minecraft 1.12.2
Still unsupported, from this page: https://github.com/Pylo/MCreatorGenerator-forge-1.12.2
Any problems with 1.12.2 need to be solved by the user now, it is open-sourced for this reason.
I don't get it. Do I have any chance to get help for my problem with MC version 1.12.2 ?
Very small, no official support, 99% of the community moved to either 1.14.4 or 1.15.2 too.
But what brings me a 1.14.4 or 1.15.2 mod when I have a 1.12.2 modpack? :D
I know it has to work in 1.12.2 as well because I found a MCreator mod for 1.12.2 https://mcreator.net/modification/54553/lennys-wireless-redstone which wireless transport redstone signals but I want to change a block instead of transport a redstone signal over distance.
Feel free to work on 1.12.2 still, but you will have a hard time unfortunately, we have to move forwards.
I am a single human, I can't do it all. So I open-sourced 1.12.2 but there is no interest from community in updating it as everyone moved to newer versions.
So the best thing you can do is to move forwards too.
Really?????
What's the big difference between MCreator for 1.12.2 and 1.15.2? There is a mod created with MCreator for MC 1.12.2 which nearly do the same thing I want, but I don't know how. So there must be a possibility!!!
It is big, different code, approaches... Also, there are many bugs in 1.12.2 generator that were later fixed which make finding the actual problem really hard if not impossible.
Which part of this did you not understand? I can not maintain 3 versions so I open-sourced it but it is not maintained by the community as almost everyone moved to new versions.
Thats why I used MCreator 2020.2. Nevermind.
Assuming that I make a 1.14 or 1.15 mod (maybe I can transfer that to 1.12.2 later).
Is there a way to do that what I want?
The other mods in your 1.12.2 modpack might get updated to 1.14.4 or 1.15.2 if not any
My actual progess is, that I created one controller block, one target block and one link item.
When I place the controller block, it created a NBT tag with the coordinates because these where unique. Then I can store this NBT tag as a global variable and the global variable I can store in the link item. The global NBT tag I can transfer to the target block so that I have the same NBT tag in the controller and target.
My problem now is, that the controller should send informations (change/replace the target block) to the target block(s) with the same NBT tag. But I don't know how I can do this.
