Golden Sands has special rules concerning spawners to minimize the amount of lag they cause.
General Rules:
- Follow tech point rules (tooltips and list below)
- Maximum TWO SPAWNERS TOTAL on at a time PER TEAM
(only one active per chunk) - Mobs must be spawned, killed, and remain in the same chunk
- Mobs must be killed quickly
- Mob drops must be picked up quickly (vacuum hopper, ender collector, etc.)
- All spawners must be turned OFF before going offline and NOT use wireless redstone
Cost in Tech Points (for servers that use Tech Points):
- Draconic / Basic / Wrath Cage / Cursed Earth (look at the tooltip) / Vanilla = 100 (Tier 1)
- Wyvern / Double-Layered = 160 (Tier 2 - Dunewalker and up)
- Awakened / Octadic = Prohibited (Tier 3)
Tips when setting up a spawner:
- See the design for the preferred spawner setup at /warp tutorial on Infinity
- Use diamond spikes or mob grinder to kill mobs
- Tier 1: use vacuum hoppers to pickup XP and items
- Tier 2: use vacuum hoppers to pickup XP and Ender Collectors to pickup items
- Use a corporeal attractor to pull mobs towards the killing device. Don't use conveyor belts or water
- If you are on a team the spawner limit is per team, not per player.
- If you are playing on a server that does not use Tech Points, you may ignore those requirements (e.g., Awakened spawners are not prohibited).
