i agree but more expensive because if every1 buys a spawner = mega lagg

 

Like Brando said, It could create massive lag which is why spawns are off atm.
Also a random builder could save his/her money up, buy one, then make a mob trap with 1 get 50 lvls of exp easily sell it buy more mob spawners and put it there get even more spawns and exp buy another and it goes on. Even tho that is illegal there is no way we would know that he/she is doing so.

 

This would open the door for major lag. I was thinking maybe we make it a president and higher perk. Maybe we could have one placed in the towns that have mob spawing turned on. Unfortunately with all the issues right now i guessing we will not see any mobs in the main world for a while. Also are there any spawners in the mining world? I have looked all over and have found none. With mob spawning turned off, would it be possible to have various spawners throughout the mining world like the nether? This could solve the issue of items like bones and spider eyes becoming immpossible to obtain without paying for them.

 

Lol people just don't get it.. it doesn't matter if its a president rank or tycoon.. they are broken they cause lag. So it doesn't matter what rank gets it.

 

Actually i do get it. The reason they cause lag is that there are to many in the main world on top of 250 users. I think at one point i had 7 in only 2 of my towns. With the demand for xp they would have several people at each all the time. My point is whether or not there could be some way to regulate them. If we made them exspensive and allowed only presidents or higher have them then there would be a lot less potential for lag. For example instead of there being Just a 25k charge for the flag, there could also be another fee for a spawner and only one per town. Just a thought. Also i think this could be avoided if there where mob spawners availiable in the mining world. Since there are not as many users at one time and you have to be a res or higher to access. Minecraft is just not the same without mobs. I hope there is a fix in the future.

 

I would think passive- 50k
Hostile -250-300k

People make heeps of money off thinks like blazes, you would have to make the cost of hostiles extremly high so that the economy dosnt crash. Also we would have to w8 until mobs are turned on ( if they are )

 

info from wiki suggests that the default setting for a spawner will be pigs. Andrewkm would need to place the spawners himself to ensure the correct mob is selected.

while on the subject of spawners... there is 1 spawner available for sale at Shop42. as above, based on the wiki info, this will be a pig spawner when mobs are turned on again. the spawner was picked up with silk touch in a previous version before silk touch was patched to not allow this feature.

 

i agree with synny and brando here but i do want a spawner :(
