Just a quick question. Do snow golems affect the spawning rates/numbers of Endermen in the End? I'm planning on letting a couple snow golems run around on the main island of the End, just for looks. Hopefully someone can answer this. Thank you.

No, because golems and hostile mob spawns are grouped separately. So you should be fine spawning snow golems in the end.

The maximum number of snow golems, per player, is 8.

The max is 16 last I checked. They changed it to 16 in tu12.

And also, the limit is 16 snow golems per dimension. You could have 16 in the overwold, 16 in the end and 16 in the nether, all at once. This dimension rule applys to all mobs.

this wants me to have them add in mobs going through portals already so i can have more than x amount of cows with a nether cow farm

It actually could affect the spawning rates. the snow created by the golems... I believe doesnt allow mob spawining

Mobs can spawn in the first layer of snow. Later on, we will be able to stack snow layers. Layers 2 and above will prevent mob spawning, just not the first.

I think somebody hinted to this, each mob belongs to a group that has it's own cap, unlike the PC version. It's actually nice because we don't have to worry about lag from different mobs. And no, the number of snow golems in the End should not affect the Enderman cap.
