i know that i have to be like 25 blocks away for mobs to farm.
but is there a maximum distance, like if im to far away will they not spawn? im probably 15-20 levels below where im trying to get mobs to sapwn and maybe 5-10 across
Spawn-able range is between 24 blocks and 144 blocks inclusive away from you. And it is a Spherical radius.
Mobs spawned between 24 blocks and 32 blocks inclusive will move about randomly, while mobs spawned more than 32 blocks away from you would move a bit when spawned and stop moving.

However, the spawner code is much different, and I advise you use the wiki for some help
