File talk:Mob spawning ranges.png

Is the image in this article still accurate as of 1.8 or later? The image indicates that mobs spawn a minimum distance of 24m from the player. Is this still correct?--216.54.96.244 17:53, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

The text in the image regarding mobs not moving if the player is more than 32 blocks away is incorrect, at least on 1.12.2 vanilla Java edition. I've been testing a mob farm design with a primary and a camera (spectator) account, and mobs never seem to stop moving no matter where the primary account is located in relation to the skin of the farm. I don't think mob movement is controlled by distance, just the spawn/despawn mechanics.
