Fixing This Minecraft EASY Mob Grinder | Minecraft 1.20 XP Farm 

Hostile mobs NEVER spawn on water, with the exception of drowneds. And if the island has no caves, then its good to go

@@ImJustSomeoneNamedLucas Okay, I did all of that but still nothing spawns. I duplicated my world and went into creative and did /kill @e and it just tells me there’s 0 entities in the area. I cant figure out why the hell it wont work. I tried AFKing 30 blocks above the farm and 30 blocks below but nothing.

@@jasiahhaye8317 Peaceful mode?

@@ImJustSomeoneNamedLucas nope hard mode.

@@jasiahhaye8317 Try testing it in another world with a different seed

Hey man! Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad if you have no trouble understanding what I said:). The subtitle is just there to be safe haha, sometimes I don't really talk clearly because English isn't really my first language too😂

Thanks for the comment bro, it means a ton. As far as I know the spawn mechanic is the same so this should also work in MCPE

Samw

because you guys are inside the radius of 24 blocks, meaning when your inside of that radius of spherical shell, mobs will not spawn, so move a bit further and make sure there's no lights inside.

I remade the farm in the middle of the ocean. It works but the rate is not that good. Maybe what can help is by lighting up the sea floor. I made a bigger mob grinder in my SMP with sea floor lit up, it works wonderfully

@@GeneralAlexMC In Bedrock Edition And Any other platform, all hostile mobs spawn rates are extremely low no matter how much you know about the Spawning Algorithm, The mob cap is always gonna be 16, you can expand the mob cap if you extend and seperate the chunks but its still slow

​@suspiciousguy3941 Oh yeah, I know how bad the rate is in bedrock😂

@wraith6135 Yeah, building one on the ocean is recommended👍

@@GeneralAlexMC is there any way i could make it into an afk farm, where I still get xp?

@wraith6135 Sadly, you need to slash them yourself to get the xp

Make sure gamemode is not in peaceful, check if there's any hole in your farm, if you're in single player and cheat is activated make sure "doMobSpawn" is set to true

Also make sure that there's no mountain around and the place you're standing is 24 blocks away from the platform

@@GeneralAlexMCI did all of this and still nothing. Do you know why???

​@@jasiahhaye8317same issue here ...idk what is up

@@djmulder 2x2 isn't enough space for spiders to spawn. The size has to be 3x3 for them to spawn

@@GeneralAlexMC ohhh i did not know that, thought indeed 2x2 thanks

I think the mechanic is quite different in bedrock, but honestly I don't really know since I never really play on bedrock

@@GeneralAlexMC alright thanks, for anyone else who's on bedrock, I've tried a lot of other artificial mob spawners and those didn't work at all, so I'd recommend just finding an actual mob spawners and using that to farm

how do i change and what do i change to

@@keegannelson653 It's in the option tab, just under render distance. the default simulation distance is fine

Spider spawner can be annoying especially if they crawl on the wall. Mob grinder would still be useful😁👍

Built it on the ocean!!

@TroubleGTag I'm guessing the mobs don't spawn? Check if you're in peaceful (sometimes we just do that accidentally lol), check if the spawning platform is somehow lit up, lastly make sure that the place you're standing is at least 24 blocks away from the spawning platform. If all checklist is done yet it's still not working, something's gotta be wrong with your world:')

@@GeneralAlexMC I did it over an ocean and it worked amazingly so Ty and make more vids, keep it up 👍

It is a big problem of the grinder. By using the carpet in certain pattern, it'd prevent the spider to spawn

@@GeneralAlexMCthe monster spawn block but I forgot the name It's now hard to find one cause of the new update now I use an dark cube So mob spawn easier

@justlaughking owh the spawner? Sure but it's not obtainable in survival tho

Maybe an enchanted pickaxe?!?

@@GeneralAlexMC but you can use the spawner as an underground xp farm right?

@BS_KiLLeR001 You can put campfire and still get the resources. Lava isn't really recommended because it'd most likely burn the loots. If you want the exp, you need to slay them yourself

@@GeneralAlexMCDo you know a good tutorial from the mob farm? Edit: can you use it in bedrock 1.21

@@BS_KiLLeR001 I just finished editing the tutorial video, should be up soon. Since the spawn mechanic is pretty much the same, technically it should work for bedrock too. However, the rate might not be the same edit: sorry for the late response, RU-vid didn't give me notifications for replies somehow😅

@@nervoiza I feel you my friend:')

im having the same exact problem. If you find a solution please tag me

@@jasiahhaye8317 nah i didnt i just build another one

@@jasiahhaye8317 I tried making the farm in the ocean the other day, it works but the rate is real bad. However, the mob grinder I made in my SMP works well on top of the ocean. The only difference is that I lit up the ocean floor in my SMP. So, maybe we do need to light up the ocean floor
