[MC-57508] Sign with tellraw score storaged in NBT in inventory cause no update when placed

Create a dummy objective called Test
Set your score for objective Test to 1

Perform this command:

/setblock ~ ~ ~ standing_sign 0 replace {Text1:"{\"score\":{\"objective\":\"Test\",\"name\":\"@p\"}}"}

Set your score to 2
Do NBT Copy on the sign (middle mouse wheel and ctrl) and place it down

You will notice that the sign has still the old value (1) instead of the new (2) even if this sign was new placed

I am not sure if this is intended but I guess not

Can confirm. The NBT data of the sign after using /setblock becomes:

{id:"Sign",Text1:"{"score":{"name":"Skylinerw","objective":"TOKENS","value":"0"}}"}

Thus using pick-block will grab a sign that has that data. This is probably working as intended for all I know, perhaps as a way to translate what to display.

Who knows... but it would be great when it works 🙂

Seems to be fixed for 15w37a (and probably earlier)

In 17w06a it acts like described in the report. But like @unknown said this is very likely intended.
