Sorry pana, i don't want to share the discovery until i have a video out
The offer is still valid for a few hours, will fix your SMP mob trap spawning problem. I just need to do tests and validates my fix. Send me a private message
(I have msged you in YT, but in case you miss that msg...)
It's been a while since I last talked with you on trap designs (I think it was back here), and since then, you've helped inspire me to a deeper understanding of lava/water physics towards new trap designs, to which I will now offer to you a challenge:
Can you make a trap that "fleeces" sheep for their wool automatically and have it delivered to you AFK?
Just in case you're wondering, I've already figured out a design, but wanted to see if the "Trap Master" could do it too... >;2)

Heya, not sure if i answered you back then :tongue.gif: I think its possible by using a pressure plate + dispenser loaded with arrows.
I built the practical SMP-PVP trap in single-player, and in the collection area thingy the items just get stuck in the spot between water squares, where the items flow after the lava blade kills the monsters.
You can't make items flow north. You need to make your collector toward the left instead of the right.
Updated a ton of stuff! New saved world with all the latest stuff including the dispenser arrow trap, cannon land and the practical SMP-PvP mob trap. World was download 30,000 times so far! :biggrin.gif:
Videos added : Timed bombs, Cannon fast loader, Hacking into obsidian (which was fixed inside 2 days by Jeb), Hidden arrow trap, Practical monster trap for SMP-PvP, Animal cannon set to 1812 Overture (a reupload) and 5 minutes timers using dispensers.
There's no optimization in the video. If you want to improve the rate of your mob trap, light up all the caverns in a 150x150 box around where you AFK and then flood the terrain above with water/light.
Excuse me, Kiershar but I've seem to have come up with a problem with your lava trap, it doesn't seem to be killing any pigs, should I change to the lava blade in your new video?
Haven't used any animal farm in a long time, so can't really help you on that. Try it, but it might burn the bacon. Or change to a drowning trap.
Question: I notice in your vid you weren't picking up string. Now that spiders climb is that messing with the trap? Will that make this trap less efficient?
Spiders are not really a big deal. They eventually die, and the string doesnt matter if you already have a couple.

Why do you make a giant collector? whats wrong with just going 3 blocks away from the kill spot?
Monsters won't spawn inside a 25 ish blocks sphere. That's why the collector is farther away.
Is there a reason why you use signs instead of wooden pressure plates for the junctions? Wooden pressure plates cost half as much wood.
I like signs. They look better and don't make click.
What about half blocks? I use those in my mob traps (modeled after yours :tongue.gif:) and they work just fine.
A lot of things work there, i guess its personal preference.

Made this, but the collector doesn't seem to work. I set it up just like the video, offset with a sign, place the source right where he did, but my items get hung up in the void. I can see the current match the video, I must be missing something.
Items can't flow toward the north. Depending on the canal orientation, you might need to make your canals toward the left instead of the right.

Thanks Bibet for helping those poor people! hehee
I did not invent the collector so i wasn't planning to do a tutorial about it, but i guess i'll have to :tongue.gif:

I put a bunch of signs to lead you to it. You need to go down a nether portal, then walk a while trough another portal. It's right under the sky-trap.

The prototype was made and recorded in singleplayer, so yes, it does!

I love you too, even if you mangle my name beyond recognition :biggrin.gif:
