Okay, I'm making a cow grinder on a survival server where the admin will give me a cow spawner but I had a question about it.
If I put stone blocks on all sides of the spawner (top, bottom, all sides) except one side which faces a 1x2 tunnel 8 blocks long. Will the cows only spawn in that tunnel, or if not, how do I set things up to make sure they only spawn in that tunnel ?
Turns out I needed to put down grass blocks for where the pigs would be spawning. Once i did that, they started popping up just fine. The design works so I'll be putting it in my survival server now
The grass was the trick, thanks ! Once I put grass down on the blocks where the pigs would be spawning, they started popping up right away. Thanks to that advice, my pig spawner works and is ready to be built on my survival server.

Team player or lone wolf?: pretty much 50/50 on this, I like doing my own thing but am happy to have my house in a player town and help out whenever I can.
On a 10 scale, how do you consider your building skills?: 7/10 - not great with redstone or designs
Anything you consider is worth letting me know about?: I never grief or do anything to intentionally ruin someone else's gameplay, I enjoy good conversation and act my age. I like having a whitelist server to keep the riff-raff out, and am usually on MC 2 or 3 hours a day depending on my work and home life (which always come first) so a 24/7 server is necessary for me.
Ever been banned?: Never have and since I follow server rules, I don't ever plan on being banned.
Okay, so we all know that /give <playername> 52 will give us a mob spawner in Creative. It only has a pig in it though and it never actually spawns so I can't figure out how to test different designs for xp grinders before making them in Survival mode.
How do I "turn on" the spawner once I shift into Survival mode so I can have pigs, or cows or whatever spawn ?
Also, how do I change the spawner from a pig to something else ?
Just place the spawner and wait. Certain mobs have various conditions. And you can't change a spawner to anything else. Sorry.
There must be a way because on another server I play, Survival Hard, the admin will give you a spawner of any kind you want. I've gotten blaze spawners, cows, sheep, and skellies. There's got to be a way.

Until today, I was a donator on this server, but when I was logged in someone named Steve said in general chat "Fu** you, Ni**er" ... I was shocked and asked if that kind of language was allowed on the server. Several people said that I must not know who Steve is, and that he's the co-owner of the server and he can say whatever he wants. Steve said all this is true and he'll talk however he wants. At that point, I chose to leave the server, never to return. That kind of language is crude and completely unnecessary. Especially for a group who's website tag line said it's a fun professional gameplay experience. Clearly that's not true.
I feel sorry for anyone who gets on this server, or those who - like me - donate thinking it's a good server. Now as the co-owner, yeah I know Steve can say whatever he wants, but there are consequences to behaving like that. Hopefully people will see this and go to a different server.
I feel even more sorry for those who stay on that server, accepting that kind of language. I'm no prude, god knows I've cussed like a sailor plenty of times but on a public server ... completely unacceptable.
So, Steve and Chase, enjoy my $10 and feel free to demolish my house because I won't ever come back.
I'm looking for a way to build a cow/pig/chicken/sheep spawner & cooker. I'm on a survival server but the admin will give us a spawner of any kind if we want. What I'm looking for is a way to get the spawned cows (or other animal) into a spot where they catch fire and die, leaving their cooked meat and leather in a collection spot.
Anyone know how to build this device, or know of a youtube video of one that actually works in survival mode ?
I ended up going with about 100 fences all hooked together in a 5x10 section, 4 blocks off the ground and it stops rain, plus if you put torches on the fences, there's enough light to make it a nice 9 or 10 below for the garden. Thanks for the ideas though
Okay, I want to make a kind of lattice work roof over my garden. Trap doors look amazing and exactly what I want but there has to be a solid block every other row for the trap doors to attach to. I ended up putting fences up there, 3 blocks up, and it looks pretty good from below or standing on top (and I can put torches on it which gives a nice 9 block light below) but it looks weird if you stand back from it and see it from the side, you can tell they are fences all hooked together - this is a big 12x10 block area.
Anyone out there know what to do as far as getting a lattice work look ?
MinecraftUsername: Dominicus_Saxon How did you find us?: I actually just opened the Survival Servers forum and this link was top of the page. I like mature, anti-grief and 24/7 is a must for me.
Whydo you like our server?: Well, it's 24/7, which fits my odd playtime and anti-grief which is good. It shows the admins know they need a place for people to enjoy the game, not get hassled all the time by idiots.
Any suggestions based upon your first impressions?: Definitely warps. Most servers I've played on have them, and they are a huge help in playing sometimes.
Have you read our rules?: I did read your rules and I think I agree to them all, at least as far as I can see. Wait, that was only one sentence, sorry. I was never very good with math.
What command should be used if you need a mod, would like to report griefing,or suggest something?: You mean a command to get a mod's attention that you need a private chat about something not for public ears ? Straight forward usually works, as in "Hey, can I get a mod to whisper me, please ?" Something like that.
Anythingelse we should know about you?: I'm 41, and live in a fabric covered box at my office. I've played MC for about 8 months now and really enjoy it, especially finding a server with a good group of people on it to chat with while playing. I've done pretty much everything on MC by now, so for me, it's all about the community.
