My summon command says (about 50% of the time) unable to summon object minecraft 1.12.2

My summon command says (about 50% of the time) unable to summon object minecraft 1.12.2 - Side view of young woman in hoodie sitting on floor near sofa and playing with obedient brown Labrador while resting during free time

For some reason half the time I activate a /summon command it just says "unable to summon object", but it still works half the time. This is only with this summon command, /summon chicken works.

/summon Skeleton ~ ~3 ~ {CustomName:"Enemy",CustomNameVisible:1,ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:"minecraft:leather_helmet",Count:1b,tag:{Unbreakable:1,display:{color:0}}}],HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:bow",Count:1b,tag:{Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:48,lvl:2999}]}},{id:"minecraft:totem_of_undying",Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:"Life",Lore:["For Another Life"]}}}],ArmorDropChances:[0.085F,0.085F,0.085F,0.0F],HandDropChances:[0.0F,2.0F],UUIDLeast:0L,UUIDMost:0L,ActiveEffects:[{Id:11,Amplifier:2999,Duration:100,ShowParticles:0b}]}

This command also:

/summon skeleton ~ ~2 ~ {CustomName:"Enemy",CustomNameVisible:1,ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:"minecraft:leather_helmet",Count:1b,tag:{Unbreakable:1,display:{color:0}}}],HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:bow",Count:1b,tag:{Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:48,lvl:2999}]}},{id:"minecraft:totem_of_undying",Count:1b,tag:{display:{Name:"Life",Lore:["For Another Life"]}}}],ArmorDropChances:[0.085F,0.085F,0.085F,0.0F],HandDropChances:[0.0F,2.0F],UUIDLeast:2L,UUIDMost:2L,ActiveEffects:[{Id:11,Amplifier:2999,Duration:100,ShowParticles:0b}]}


Best Answer

so... I rewrote your first command so that it is more readable:

/summon Skeleton ~ ~3 ~ 
{
    CustomName:"Enemy",
    CustomNameVisible:1,
    ArmorItems:
    [
        {},
        {},
        {},
        {
            id:"minecraft:leather_helmet",
            Count:1b,
            tag:
            {
                Unbreakable:1,
                display:
                {
                    color:0
                }
            }
        }
    ],
    HandItems:
    [
        {
            id:"minecraft:bow",
            Count:1b,
            tag:
            {
                Unbreakable:1,
                ench:
                [
                    {id:48,lvl:2999}
                ]
            }
        },
        {
            id:"minecraft:totem_of_undying",
            Count:1b,
            tag:
            {
                display:
                {
                    Name:"Life",
                    Lore:["For Another Life"]
                }
            }
        }
    ],
    ArmorDropChances:[0.085F,0.085F,0.085F,0.0F],
    HandDropChances:[0.0F,2.0F],
    UUIDLeast:0L,UUIDMost:0L,
    ActiveEffects:
    [
        {Id:11,Amplifier:2999,Duration:100,ShowParticles:0b}
    ]
}

All your brackets are balanced, so that's all fine. I do notice that some of the values don't have a type identifier behind them, which isn't Always necessary, but I usually just do it. It's good practice.

You give this skeleton both a UUIDLeast of 0 and a UUIDMost of 0 Notice that UUID stands for Unique User ID. This means that every entity needs a unique UUID. You are summoning skeletons with the same UUID, which is not possible.

But further than that, your command looks completely fine.

How do you summon a specific item in Minecraft?

The "Riding" tag can allow you to summon more than one entity. The main issue is the entities are stuck riding one another. To overcome this, an Item entity separates each entity that should not be riding the previous entity. This Item has an "Age" tag of 6000, which despawns the item the moment it is summoned.

Can you summon more than one thing at a time in Minecraft?

You can summon an entity (or mob) whenever you want using the /summon command in Minecraft....Definitions

Answer 2

Have you been using a command block? If you are using this command in regular chat, it may not work depending on the command since I believe there is a character limit. If this is the case, you can get a command block with /give @p command_block

Hope this helps :)
