Hi guys,
I want to "undig" this topic a little bit I'm on a new pre release version 1.20 (pre 9)
So I have this magnetite mine. The entrance is a simple 1x1 straight down shaft with ladder. I started to dig out magnetite and created a medium sized cavern. While I was digging a bunch of mobs started to spawn, but since mine is quite deep I am having nightmare drifters, bowthorns and shivers. I fought them off, no problem... but.... They started to reappear. I've got myself full plate iron, but they kept coming.
OK, I've stoned the WHOLE floor. Didn't miss a spot (I've checked it very carefully). But they keep coming. I have like 5-8 constant mobs in that mine. It's impossible to extract any resources now. Lighting with torches will be just for a moment (since torches will burn out withut holders, and when I get back for another batch I will have to kill all the mobs once again), and lighting with lanterns will be very costly (since it's a big mine).
What can I do? I have to move to another mine, or is there a way to spawn proof a mine somehow??
P.S. Spawn rate is CRAZY - I basically can't do anything in that mine beside fighting never ending big crowd of mobs inside. Even stoning of the mine was extremely difficult.
