Mapmaking - How To Generate Chests [containers] with (Vanilla) Loot-Tables
Commands - Same chest, every version
One command, minecraft:chest with chests/simple_dungeon, written the way your version wants it:
1.20.5 - 26.3 (item NBT became components)
/give @p minecraft:chest[minecraft:container_loot={loot_table:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}]Older: 1.13 - 1.20.4
/give @p minecraft:chest{BlockEntityTag:{LootTable:"chests/simple_dungeon"}}Very older: 1.9 - 1.12.2 (count and data value are required before the NBT)
/give @p minecraft:chest 1 0 {BlockEntityTag:{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}}1.13+ The /setblock version
/setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:chest{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}Note: the /give syntax above works in 1.13 - 1.20.4 only. From 1.20.5 on, item NBT became components. See Same chest, every version right below.
- generate container with: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:type{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/type"}
- Block To Inventory: "control + middle Mousebutton or Mousebutton 3" the chest
- Save as .schem for hand-pasting in or as .NBT with structure-blocks to generate with Worldpainter
- Chest command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:chest{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Barrel command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:barrel{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Dispenser command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:dispenser{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Dropper command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:dropper{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Hopper command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:hopper{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Shulker Box command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:shulker_box{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Trapped Chest command: /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:trapped_chest{LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Chest Minecart command: /summon minecraft:chest_minecart ~ ~ ~ {LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}
- Fill an existing container: /loot insert ~ ~1 ~ loot minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon (rolls the table immediately instead of on first open)
- Fixed roll: add LootTableSeed:123456L next to LootTable to make every generated container roll the same items
Block To Inventory: "control + middle Mousebutton or Mousebutton 3" the chest
1.20 Sus Sand
Careful: the BlockEntityTag needs id:"minecraft:brushable_block" or the item comes out empty. Warm ocean ruins use suspicious_sand, cold ones use suspicious_gravel.
