as TU12 came out i started a new world and one of the features that i was looking into by having 256 worlds was controling the mob spawning in the map so i made a sky base at 200 and realize that nothing spawns there i made a 21x21 platform and leave it without torches and no mobs spawn there so i went to creative mode and made the same thing at 218 layer i stayed more than 24 blocks away of it and nothing spawn at that height any one having the same problem??
hmm... never really tested that, but that sounds like an interesting test now that you can place blocks up to 254... Remember y is based on where your head height is.... I actually figured that height limit out yesterday...hm...
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
My First World, always getting back to is a pleasure I enjoy with each new update that brings in more things to add in.
Yup! Same problem.. I made my kill platform at y:192 which is 128 blocks above sea level (y:64) then I went up 24 more blocks to start the first mob spawning room.. created 5 levels.. and nothing at all. No mobs spawns. So now because the game is broken (rollback maybe to TU11?), I'll park this game until we are out of beta again.
I was using the modified mob grinder design from hfog:

yea i was using hfog mob grinder too so what i did i build a sky base at layer 200 and the mbo grinder at layer 100 with the killing floor at 75 and put a gigantic item elevator to pick up the drops
how is your spawn rates? reason I did 128 above sea level(64).. to get max mobs spawning in the spawn rooms. So I'm curious to know if you got decent spawn rates?

i tested in creative with just one floor of the mob grinder and got 8 gun powder 6 bones 4 zombie flesh and 3 string in 2 minutes so spawn rate works pretty good in flatland the problem would be if you are near to hills because standig at layer 200 will get mobs spawning at blocks that are above layer 72 and the problem is also the item elevator since minecraft is bugtacular right now items dont go trough transparent blocks like they do in pc and they get trow to the sides with solid blocks sometimes so im working to fix that right now
This could make for some interesting builds....
Stay fluffy~
