Spawning algorithm
Does anybody have the spawning code for slimes? I've been wondering in what conditions they spawn for a slime spawning room. I know that they only spawn in some chunks, and below 16 on the y axis, at any light level, but how much room do they need? and how rare is it to find them in those certain chunks? Does the whole room need to be below 16 or just the floor? 05:17, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

A little self-contradicting
I understand that this article is a little unstable due to the spawning being broken, but I think it kinda contradicts itself. For example, in paragraph 1, the article states "Small slimes apparently spawn in the peaceful difficulty.", yet in paragraph 6 it states "Currently, slimes cannot spawn naturally." Paragraph 5 ("There is currently a bug that causes slimes of any size to not be removed when switching to peaceful, unlike other hostile mobs. ") also feels a little awkward. This article seems to be providing information from when slimes spawned, as well as now that spawning is broken and this results in a little bit of contradicting information. Maybe I'm just making a big deal out of nothing, but what do you guys propose for fixing the article? --IKaleb 04:37, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed a bit of this, but can someone confirm the following:
 * Reports of slimes spawning in the upper layers of a snow biome.
 * Slime ability to climb ladders.
 * I've checked around GetSatisfaction but can't find anything and it's nigh impossible to find spawned slimes. --Gnu32 10:25, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Now the page entirely contradicts itself
 * "Even as of Beta 1.3, Slime are able to spawn on peaceful(Glitch or bug maybe?). "
 * "They only spawn onward from easy to hard. They used to spawn on all difficulties, even peaceful. Later, this was fixed. "
 * Can someone check which it is? --Capt0z 07:24, 23 February 2011 (UTC)!

50 block slime
can someone add a pic of one?
 * Sign your comments, Mr. No-name. And here is your 'pic' LB 02:54, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

 * "Mr. No-name."... good one. Im Tygor97.

PS. Thanks!

32 health
How should we act on the 32 health issue we have with the big slime?--Kizzycocoa 17:19, 22 December 2010 (CST)

Still Spawning?
I keep getting slimes spawning in this room even though it says slimes no longer spawn? Multiplayer, y coordinate of 7, and I don't think there's any mods. --Kaseki 02:51, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Slime released
Hello!! It's necesary to add the date/update when the Slime was released as a mob. (Ex.: Seecret Friday 7)

If is possible, please add it on this article.

Thanks!! Bye. Kingpowl 16:01, 14 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Done, and done. Shay 16:05, 14 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I would add the date (past), when I saw her in "Version History", but you added it. Thanks ;) Kingpowl 16:08, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Citation for rare slime spawning
I don't know how to cite stuff, but I have it right here:

An employee said that slimes are back in the game but very rare. --PurpleKiwi 22:00, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Done. – ultradude25  ( T at 22:07, 23 January 2011 (UTC)


 * can it be confirmed or is there a link/log of the cited employee saying this ? FuzzyWuff 05:26, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

We need some proof.
According to modders, slimes aren't in the mob spawn list, according to Mojang, slimes can spawn. It may be possible that slimes use a special way to spawn due to size,location restrictions. etc... but so far, nobody seems to have shown that slimes do actually spawn.. ConMan8 11:25, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

so are slimes back?
it says slimes can spawn again but are very rare so i was wondering has any one actually seen one yet?
 * I know right? I haven't seen one yet! I hope they make them more common. I want a little slime pet. I also want to put them in a big fenced off place and watch them while I'm waiting for day. --Eldonman101

Spawn
It says they spawn at level 16 or lower, does that mean light level or depth? user:tygor97

Huge slimes
Iv been playing around with sing player commands and notice when spawning slimes iv only seen up to the size of large, are the huge slimes extremely rare, can anyone who has found a slime spawning spot take a look at this? Jrob 19:34, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't know about their spawning code, but I'd venture to say that it may be because they need a lot of room to spawn. Just a guess though. Capt0z 08:00, 1 March 2011 (UTC)!

Slime Sizes
Exactly how big are these slimes normally? It says huge, big, normal, and small... but how do each of these measure in blocks? As a side note, they look just like Gelatinous Cubes from Dungeons & Dragons, I bet that was their inspiration. I'll add that to the trivia section. -- Techpriest88 00:36, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I think that small is 1/2 block, medium is 1 block, and large is 2 blocks. [[File:Tjb0607SigIcon.png]] 05:19, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Still spawning on peaceful
with beta 1.3_01 I have had slimes spawn on peaceful. Or at least, not despawn when switched to peaceful. The slimes that spawned were two of the big slimes and one of the normal slimes. It was in a very large room at bedrock. I can post a picture, but that wouldn't be proof that I was actually on peaceful. Can anyone else confirm this? If no one responds within a day or two, I will update the page to say "As of Beta 1.3 slimes can still sometimes spawn on peaceful, though whether this is due to special circumstances or a glitch is unknown."Zephyriphoenix 22:05, 23 February 2011 (UTC) They are most definitely spawning on peaceful for me. I have not switched off of peaceful and a normal slime spawned.Zephyriphoenix 22:17, 23 February 2011 (UTC) I just got threw playing, found some switched to peaceful and they stayed, even the two biggest ones, and they did damage, i would have video but i pressed stop recording instead of record on fraps. when i realised what i had just proven then lost the evidence i wanted to cry, i had buddys in single player but they all died, but ya they atleast stay after switching to peaceful and still do damage.Zach2beat 06:40, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Spawning code?
I don't know how to obtain code from the jar file yet, would anyone mind finding(or telling me how to get) the code that controls slime spawning? Alphap 03:50, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
