Well to start off i have 5X9 tower, it has a water floor which is the bottom, then it has two more floors that are 4 blocks high(each floor is). I've Created Holes so that the creepers can fall down... then te current of the water goes into a corner which is 3 or 4 blocks deep, once they are in there there suppose to drown and die and there items are suppose to flow to my "pickup area" but this dosent happen and i dont know why. If anyone knows a guide or video to create one the is working UP TO DATE please refer me to it.
Well I don't know even if thier spawning but i think items are not flowing but im not sure, I've used my self as a test and in the drowning part it pushes me agaisnt the rock... hopefully you understand
Just dig around underneath and try to find some caves around the area and put torches around so nothing will spawn underneath. you don't need to go all the way to bed rock, after a certain distance mobs won't spawn. There's a good chance this isn't what's causing your problem but it'll help either way.
It's somehow weird that the Resources from the Creepers does not flow out from your Pick-Up Point.I tested this Apparatus out and the Resources worked perfectly.
Should be the Creepers which had done something wrongly as within the Updates,They Have Better AI so they can move around much more easier and they are intelligent.Try investigating the Trap for several times before making the real conclusion.
Just walk around within your "creeper trap" and turn up your volume. Then just listen for some loud zombies or skellies.ThIs has helped me find dungeons and caves nearbym even as of now I am still finding monsters around my traps. you'll see an increased spawn rate
You can't drown mobs in the Xbox version like we could do in the PC one, they keep jumping out of the water & don't drown, I got round this by using trapdoors to keep them under that way they can jump out the water.
Thanks for your time and reading this.
what do you think is causing the problem?

This thread bores me.
