hey kalmier, i was trying out your redstone torch thing, and when somthing landed on the plate the torches didnt light up. just wondering if you had any suggestions.
@TheKalmier well i know i did the redstone and all right because when i step on the pressure plate it works, however when an object from the trap is set on it (this is when the water currents push it on) it doesnt light up.
also, im trying to make a similar mob trap but instead of doing ti underground, I'm making it really high, in the middle of the ocean. I'm also plaaning on killing the mobs by fall damage. Any advice?
@aukanoob sorry but idk if it will work... i have no advice unfortunatly but GOOD LUCK i thought the same thing about fall damage but still the spawner was underground.
So what's the productivity of this design? It doesn't look like it can match the old tower grinders, even in 1.6.6. (No idea in 1.7, because I promptly tested a piston trap that corrupted the save I have with one of those towers built.
@rashkavar someone says they got about 275 items per hour. Which is not near as many as a mob spawning tower. But, this is also NOT an afk grinder. This is for collecting while you are building around your grinder. You just keep going by every 5 min and collect what's dropped.
I rarely run out of any of the stuff monsters drop unless I suddenly decide to do a huge project.
@Nerfbatz awesome. just know there is a bug in minecraft where mobs can stop spawning all together. For me, if I just walk to that pond where I got sand from, spend a few seconds there, and walk back, the mobs start spawning again.
@TheKalmier I've had that happen a few times too. When i lit all the caves behind the spawner I didn't have any trouble with it anymore. Also restarting minecraft seems to help.
@Nerfbatz Yeah, I haven't lit up all the caves on this LP, but on another world, even with caves all lit up, it can still happen. Restarting the game or even going Peaceful then back to Normal will spawn 1-3 packs of mobs, and then it'd be dead again. It's weird.
Assuming you use fraps to record, what settings do you use? I just downloaded it and it seems to record fairly well without lag. I am quite surprised! Maybe we can do a dual comm sometime?
@xIBiTz13 I do use Fraps, and I have it set to 29.97 FPS at Full-size with 30 sec Loop. Record Windows Sound and External Input (microphone) are on, and everything else is off. When I record, I set my desktop to ####x720 (depends on aspect ratio of your monitor, mine is 16:10). You could try 1080 as well.

@ZethestheAlmighty there should be a redstone torch above and below the side blocks, and redstone dust across the chest underground.
You can try downloading my world from a current video and look at how I did it. I just didn't have the redstone during the filming of this video.

@ZethestheAlmighty Is it a wooden pressure plate? Stone ones only detect player/mobs, wooden ones detect any object.

@TheKalmier I guess just filling the caves with torches will fix it, atleast for me the entire afternoon mobs kept on spawning.
