Took the image with my cell phone! My slime farm is only 16x16! I was working on my rail stations underground pez dispencer and road a cart to my mine (slime farm located there aswell) and i heard slimes! Checked it out and OMG! I cou ted 5 large ones, 8 medium ones and between 5-8 small ones! I racked up 2 stacks +3 of slime! I now have 7 stacks of slime! I also recently lit up cavess for my mob spawner!
I wasnt expecting this kimd of output by a 16x16! Not to mention they can spawn on top of it and around it!
Excuse my typos! Using my ipad and i am not attempting to go back and correct em!
Its expected depending on how many caves you have around. I have lit up almost all and have tremendous amounts of slimes I dont even bother collecting anymore
So despite the fact that i now have 10 (yes count em, 10) stacks of slime, and it would be more if i had watched more closely, i want to make an automated slime farm! Basically because i like to build these things! Its why i play minecraft!
Here is the one i am interested in! But gonna do a smaller scale!
Im just gonna adapt it around my current spot! Just one problem! I would like to be able to SHUT IT DOWN, when i am waiting for items from my hostile mob spawner! I know slimes have a 10% chance, but still affects my mob spawner!
Any suggestions? Ideas?
I was thinking maybe some piston suppressed water some where to flood the pads! But dont think it will work as water will run to the closest opening in a straight stream! So then i was thinking how about some sticky pistons under the pads to push up blocks to prevent spawning? Then i think only small ones will spawn!

Ok so i now have more of a need to do this! Now my xbox started to drop fps! It was set to online but i rarely invite people! It was just me, my guy was in my secret room in my house and i have never had this issue! Remembering the epic slime post i goto mine and once again a repeat of that pic plus half that outside of the spawn room! Plus my mob spawner in full mottion and it was raining! I am assuming the combination slowed it way down untill i killed every slime! Another 2 stacks+! 13 now! Other than filling it up , like to keep it to gloat to my friends who cant get one working, how to stop em!

I would like to completely prevent then at will!
Slime spawning is very... odd. For example, large slimes will spawn in an area with a 2-meter ceiling, destroying themselves and splitting into small slimes. And, although I haven't seen it happen, I have seen people on the forums posting that slimes sometimes spawn in water. If that is true, your idea may not work at all.

Epic. I'm such a nooob, I've never even encountered a slime yet My brother did once, but than he fell in lava Could you make sticky pistons pull out the floor into a river that flows past cactuses? I''m not sure if that would work, but at least a lever could open and close it. Plus, you could add a switch to squeeze in the walls or something to shut off spawning if I read ur post correctly.

Room is to big for either but fayzednz helped me out! We figured i could do a 2 channel mob grinder with each channel having its own grinder to shrink the slimes down then funnel the 2 into 1 and go from there! And to shut it down have a full row of pistons in the roof flooding the floor! Down the middle so water flows evenly to the channels on the sides!

Retired StaffNo mobs spawn when the ceiling is lower than their height requirement, either... but slimes do.
EDIT: 420th post
