 Description   

Dispensers are now able to equip armor on players, but they do not work with mob heads or pumpkins.
Also, we can't do shift+click on mob's head/pumpkins to equip them.

On top of the original behavior of spawning golems, pumpkins & mob heads will auto equip if a player stand in front of the dispenser.

If nothing can be spawned and nobody stands in front of the dispenser, the item will not be dropped into the world. This is an intended behavior.
Same goes for shift-clicking. The fact it doesn't equip is an intended behavior.

This is still the case, even in 15w34a. Over one year. Wow.

Comment by Sebastian K [ 23/Jun/14 ]

confirmed for 14w25b

Comment by Pikachuun Inabikari [ 26/Apr/14 ]

Confirmed still an issue for 14w17a.

Comment by Tokes [ 14/Mar/14 ]

Confirmed for 14w11b (tried both ways). Also the dispenser doesn't dispense the mob head at all. I wasn't surprised that it didn't equip it to me but I expected it to at least spit the dropped item at me.

Confirmed for 1.7.5, 14w08a and 14w10c

With the ability for dispensers to place pumpkins and wither heads, really only the shift clicking is a problem. It may have something to do with the fact that you can place them, though.

Affects snapshot 13w38c.

Updated versions. Sorry about that.

Affects snapshot 13w18c.

Comment by Bud Gillett [ 03/May/13 ]

Because those are originally block "ID'ed" They shouldn't be treated like armour.

Comment by Sealbudsman [ 07/Mar/13 ]

still in 1.5.

Comment by Anonymized [ 27/Jan/13 ]

Confirmed: Applies to all heads and pumpkins. All armor, including leather that is dyed, is OK.

Comment by [Mod] Ezekiel (ezfe) [ 24/Jan/13 ]

Confirmed. This also applies to pumkins.
