he sounds so excited. Glad you cheered up over the years

I would recomend doing it in bite size chunks, lets say everytime u visit the nether u lay down 2 stacks of half slabs, over time you will cover a lot of it :)

[WEDENAWAL]

Xisuma, wow your voice was so different back then.
I must say, you sound alot better nowadays ;D

[SimplySarc]

Very well deigned. Keep up the good work man :)

[xisumavoid]

The sieve is most effective for cost, i still think the first one is the most fastest, depends on what were after i guess

[xisumavoid]

I understand and the sign tricks works with the pigmen, u saw them al lrun of the edge right?

[xisumavoid]

possibly the distance you are from the spawner, and also if other people are playing online, btw slabbing the nether is a huge task, it would take you countless hours to slab it all

[xisumavoid]

Thats a lot of effort man im glad you got one working :)

[gdavidson]

Xisuma, do you know if mobs can spawn on fire blocks? I figure it might be a little easier than half slabs or lava in reducing the spawn area of pigmen. Thoughts?

[xisumavoid]

Yea this is what someone on reddit posted. The rare drops where a after thought as when building and testing i saw the rare drops and was like "oh yea of corse", but now u mention it im sure your right, it shouldn't be possible without the player hitting them right?

[JetCrasher]

What his voice lacked, he made up with brilliant ideas and creative farms

[xisumavoid]

I was totaly unaware of that, i did not see it happen in testing, whats the chance in % that it happens?

[xisumavoid]

thats the radius in which you should try and disable spawnable areas :)

[xisumavoid]

i doubt the design of the farm will effect the rates, its probably smp spawn rates messed up, it happens on servers and it is fixabloe

[xisumavoid]

The 2nd design was made for the overworld, the first does to but is expensive :)

[xisumavoid]

I may make one in a couple of weeks, but ive got some of my own ideas to get out first :)

[xisumavoid]

so if we remove the areas where they can instantly despawn then the rates are better :)

[xisumavoid]

they do, spawn rates probably low because of other spawnable areas?

I tried it about 4 or 5 times, occasionally one would fall down if a couple bumped into its back, thats when i remembered to use signs
