Yes, it spawns monsters anywhere within... 5 blocks? but it has to be dark.

While each spawner has a 5-mob limit, the mobs only count toward that limit while within a certain range of the spawner. Probably the same range a player needs to be within for the spawner to function.
I don't know if this would work, but could you keep the block below the spawner empty? that will make sure it's not completely surrounded, while allowing the mobs to spawn within that 5 block radius, or whatever it is.

Might as well try it. I know for a fact though that you don't need mossy cobblestone because I had a spawn tower that worked with normal cobblestone. I assume it would work with other materials as well, but you may have ot test that.

Would that work?
That should work, but I won't pretend to know much about the subject.
If that doesn't work, you could always hide them in subway tracks, basements, buildings, ect. and make that the objective of the game, to destroy all the spawners.
If I bury it in stone will it still work?
or how else should I hide it?

Is there a limit to how many mobs can be on at a time?
200 hostile mobs on the whole map at a time.
So then...in order to prevent other mobs from appearing, I need to have 200 zombies around at any one time...
excellent.
ZombieTown is gonna be insane!
Im going to have alot more than 40 spawners on the map.
Im gonna have one spawner every 5 blocks roughly. Shits gonna get CRAZY.
Im planting the spawners now. if you want to see the results, click that little link in my sig.
Oh! Someone said mob spawners need to be on mossy cobble to work. true?
Nope, they can spawn on any surface except for like half blocks and glass or liquids.
EDIT: I completely missed the link in your siggy. :tongue.gif:
