In survival, how many blocks away from a mob spawner do i have to be for it to work?












0















In survival, I am having issues with my XP grinder. They are a block away from each other and the killing floor is not in the same block as either of them. I do not know how far away I possibly can be for mobs to spawn into the system. I know there is no rep on this question, but I'm kinda raw because I spent the last 6 hours setting this up.

          The number of chunks doen't neccessarity have anything to do with
          whether or not a spawner will be activated. But, rather, how far
          away a player is from a spawner. By default, a world-generated
          spawner will activate when a player is within a 16-block radius.
          Also, spawners can be next to each other and still work, there is no
          limit on that.



          So, in your case, you will have to visit each site in
          order for the spawners to activate. If you wanted to recreate this
          in creative mode, you could set a custom spawner with a large
          "nearby player radius" using commands, but that requires cheats to
          be enabled in the world.
