Talk:Tutorials/Slime farming

Is it possible for someone in the know to add something about the parameters required for a players AFK position to enable slime spawning? Where the AFK position is "from" also. I have seen comments about being 24 blocks away - but away from what? chunk edge, centre of platform etc? Also what is the maximum distance before spawning is restricted? Does the player need to be active, can they be in a minecart etc? Sid. X septic sid x (talk) 15:32, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Light levels
The slime farms listed don't work at 1.18 because slimes only spawn at light level 7 or lower now. Also, some of the blocks in the table will also not allow slimes to spawn, because the light level is too high. SirDaddicus (talk) 21:48, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * That's too bad. The slime farm I have in my survival game is well-lit to keep other mobs from spawning in it. Good thing I have enough slimes now. I could always remove most of the torches to make it work again though. It should still prevent hostile mobs from spawning because they now need a light level of 0.
 * I think most of these farms can be made to work simply by darkening them. For me, all I would need to do in mine is remove some torches. Amatulic (talk) 22:48, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
