Hey guys I was just woundering what is the furthest a mob will spawn from you? I think the wiki says its 64 blocks, does anyone know if this is right or if it is more or less?
Don't you love living in the future as we do? Isn't it grand? We have personal computers, and high-speed internet installed in cars and coffee bars, even on our cordless cellular telephones, which are small enough to carry around in our pockets. And now there's even this thing called "the wiki" which has the answers to almost all of our questions.
...yet somehow we still choose to post said questions to the forum anyway, instead of looking up the answers for ourselves.
Mobs spawn naturally within a 15x15 chunk (240x240 block) area around the player. When there are multiple players, mobs can spawn within this distance of any of them. However, mobs that move farther than 128 blocks from any player will immediately despawn, so the mob spawning area is effectively limited to spheres with a radius of 128 blocks, centered at each player.
Yes it is great it allows you to meet arrogant SOBs that cannot see the person has read the info and would like clarification!
So thanks for the clarification you may go back to placing your head back where the sun does not shine until you come to talk down to someone else who is stuck and asks a question.

You said you think that the wiki says 64, which it does not say. Is that supposed to indicate to me that you have read it, or that you haven't? Thoroughly? Recently?

Hi, I don't think we've met. My name's IronMagus, and I'm kind of a jerk. I'm sure we'll get along just fine.

Your first post and you answer some post nearly 3 years old. Good one. I hope the poster you aimed your witty comment/post at hasn't been waiting on pins and needles this entire time. That would be a heck of a long time to wait for the said joke punchline that surely failed to deliver a healthy guffaw.
And just for the record IronMagus was one of the most knowledgeable helpful people here on the forums in years past. That post was a little unlike him so must have been having a bad day.

Was a good joke indeed. In defense of the necromancer, usually people google questions and those questions lead them to old forum posts and they just post something not realizing how old it was. I was led here through a search engine.
As a matter of fact I was looking for the spawning distances as well, I had to retrieve my account information from years ago just so that I could make this joke, but I just had to

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.

PS Nice to meet you, next time you should introduce yourself like that straight off.
EDIT: Nevermind I found it under the AI section of the Mobs page.
People figure it out, soon enough.

I laughed pretty hard at this.
Someone doesn't seem to understand what spherical means.

Yes he'll fit right in around here.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
If you are playing on a server, beware. Some servers mess with spawning mechanics to limit CPU.
October 2013 was barely one and a half year ago.
(And I, for one, enjoyed the joke!)
Just testing.

This also depends on render distance, of course.

Hi
I wonder what ever happened to IronMagus.
Well after clicking on his profile and seeing that he logged in two days ago, I'd say he's still around, lurking.
