Unsp0ken Posted April 27, 2025 Report Posted April 27, 2025 Yup, as the title suggests, having lots of issues with drifter, bowtorn, and shiverer spawns, sometimes I'll come home, and they'll be up to 5 of these dudes inside my house, sometimes it's just due to rifts, which I mean, fine they have a reason to spawn, but it is annoying. Although, sometimes, they spawn in my home without rifts nearby, super annoying coming home and trying to put things in my cellar only to be met with a party of drifters, I'm playing on 1.20.9, temporal activity is enabled, everything is well lit, a mix of oil lamps, lanterns, and torches, is this just a me problem?
LadyWYT Posted April 27, 2025 Report Posted April 27, 2025 Welcome to the forums! It could be a lingering bug, as the last couple of patches have had some issues regarding monster spawns. However, it could also be that the light level inside is too low to stop monsters from spawning. Oil lamps are great for moody lighting, but not great for stopping spawns, so you may need to invest in better lights for certain areas. I would also check for rifts near the problem spots; sometimes rifts can spawn right outside and produce monsters inside in certain cases(usually a lighting issue). Outside of upgrading your lights, you can also try cluttering up open spaces with decor like pelt rugs and whatnot...but it's not foolproof and can make navigating your own house difficult. 1
Unsp0ken Posted April 27, 2025 Author Report Posted April 27, 2025 (edited) I did end up replacing those oil lamps, and that mostly fixed the issue, maybe due to oil lamps not doing a great job of lighting up the floor and just having a real poor light level leading to mob spawns. Lanterns are still not perfect, but so much better, thanks! Also sucks oil lanterns don't work well, love their lighting. Edited April 27, 2025 by Unsp0ken 2
