Butterbot Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I realize I may have settled in a wolf chunk, but I feel like I spend half of my gameplay trying to control the wolf population. It looks like they spawn in larger groups consistently (~4 adults and ~3-7 pups), which I think makes sense and is good, but they seem to respawn way too quickly. Is this just me? Or is the wolf respawn rate crazy now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlethe Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 I too have noticed a drastic increase in wolf spawns, seems like every night a new LARGE group of wolves spawns outside my home. It doesn't seem to matter what biome I'm in. Also, the number of animals in general seems extremely high, I'm constantly surrounded by wild sheep, pigs, chickens, rabbits, and all other animals. There's been no reason for me to practice animal husbandry as I get new animals every night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen an increase in my game... and a quick look at the files doesn't seem like they've been increased. Wolves have been increased slightly, and they do have a higher chance of respawning (so quicker respawns). Disclaimer: that is just how it looks to me from comparing 1.16 files to 1.17. I'm not knowledgeable about coding or how the game works. eta: my game is a fresh start in 1.17.2 using the same seed I had before Edited September 6, 2022 by dakko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not very knowledgeable about coding either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatorder Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 I did have one weird incident in one of my worlds where a small, inescapable, dead-end cave seemed to constantly respawn wolves. Or they're able to breed and I wasn't aware. Regardless, there was a pit containing some 8-ish adult wolves and a swarm of pups, and no matter how many I killed whenever I went back a day later there'd be a small pack of them back in there.

Maelstrom Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Typically wolves spawn in forests, not in caves. I suspect they are spawning nearby and pathfinding into the cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
