Famcraft Survival / Re: Mob Farm Conundrum (warning: math!)
« on: July 03, 2020, 10:15:11 AM »
If you stand above the farm high enough to cause spawns, the base is too far from you and mobs will despawn. Forna gunpowder farm, you need to stand within 32 blocks of the base.
33 blocks is a really long drop. 22 blocks will leave mobs with half a heart, and 23 blocks will kill them, unless you get a mob wearing feather fall boots. So if we move the platform of their demise up 10 blocks, that will help some.
Now, as far as where you can stand, you want to be within 32 blocks of the platform. And you want to be at least 24 blocks away from the spawning area. 2 blocks below the platform will accomplish both of these.
