I hope someone can help me with my problem. I created a mod with a lot of mobs, but the last ones are not spawning. For example, one of the mobs is a crocodile that spawns only in swamps. First they didnt spawned so i changed their spawn weight to 200 (over zombies and basic mobs) but they are not spawning anyways. It has the creature spawn type so they should spawn in swamp grass blocks during day but they just dont spawn. Can someone help me? (Sorry for my bad english)
There are several things to consider with mob spawning:
the time, how much area there is for it to spawn, the biome, the spawn weight, the spawn type, the blocks they spawn on, and the light level. I’m not sure which problem you have, but I hope this helps.
Also, try reading the wiki for mob spawning.
Thanks for replying! i already readed the wiki for mob spawning but it didnt help. I think the time is not the problem cause it has the creature spawn type so it should spawn during day or with high light levels in solid blocks like the grass in the swamp. The spawn weight is literally 200 so it should be priorized. I will check all again btw. Thanks for replying again :D
Maybe it’s hit box is to big to spawn because of the trees or hills are in the way. Try lowering the hit box to something smaller than a block.
I think it’s labeled as collision bock or something in the editor.
if that doesn’t work make a large flat clearing in the swamp.
or make a buffet world and set it swamp.
Also check if your mob even is visible.
Because the model/texture could have gotten corrupted.
or maybe it was made incorrectly. (not saying you did)
I checked the hitbox but it isnt that. I tried the buffet world but it didnt worked. The mob is visible and works perfectly if i spawn it with the egg. But i still cant make it spawn naturally in te world :c
Hmm...... Weird.
Maybe the "enable spawning" box is not checked?
I have the same problem with as you kinda. I made a Bear that spawns in the Taiga, but i cant find it. I made another mob, that spawns in the Taiga too but it does spawn. Can figure out how to fix it :/
Maybe you have too many mobs? (which I doubt)
Im running out of ideas..
I do have one more though... change the spawning type to ambient.
If that doesnt work, send an email to a moderator or something.
Good Luck!
Thank you so much for helping, but nothing works. like you said i have more than one mob in the sawmp and this mobs spawns with no problems. Maybe its an Mcreator issue, i will send an email. I really appreciate your help, thanks!
Do you know what the entity's creature type is set to? Also, have you checked to see if flying entity or water entity have been marked? And check the spawning type, as well as the minimal spawn group.
I already checked all the stuff, i think its an Mcreator bug and i hope they will fix it soon. The only way i can make the mobs spawn is with the ambient spawn type, but they spawn a lot and only during night.
I have a lot of custom mobs and have the same problems. They just wouldn't spawn correctly by mcs own rules and weights. The only way I could make it almost work was to create invisible spawner blocks which spawn the mobs I want, in the numbers I want. Otherwise nothing really spawns as it should.
You’re welcome.
also, if you ever figure out the problem, or they respond to your email, please tell us how to fix it
I tried by re-installing Mcreator to see if any archive was corrupted or something but it didnt worked. I really dont know any other solution to this problem than changing to ambient spawn type, but the mobs will spawn a lot and only during night wich isnt what i want.
Okay now i have the exact same problem as you! I tried making a crocodile but it wont spawn either!
I guess Minecraft really doesn't like Crocodiles. :(
Also, several of my mobs wont attack me for some reason.
Anyone else have that problem?
These two problems are really annoying.
My mobs attack me when they want, sometimes if i dont hit them, they dont really care about me (And yes, they have de AI to attack the player) :c
