Cows? Where Are You?

[thegr8k8]

I've noticed a distinct lack of friendly mob spawning in New Ceardia. Whenever I visit other lands I see friendly mobs spawning at daytime in large family groups! But in my home town in New Ceardia I may see a single chicken or sheep once in awhile but hardly ever cows and pigs.

Is this normal? Is it maybe broken? Is it because it is so heavily forested?

Fendarfell, for example, has many many friendly mobs that spawn. As well as the really special enemies too of course so this area must just be special.

MassiveMobs is only in Deandroc and Fendarfell. That's the only reason large groups of animals spawn in those two places.

If i was to guess, i would say its due to the mob spawning algarithim spawning a set number of mobs per chunk. Now while fenderfell has no naturaly spawning caves for said mobs to spawn in, NewCeridia has. So the mobs are taken up by hostile ones under the surface.

There are also extreamly huge cow farms around the worlds

I've had a faction in New Ceardia for months now. I have never seen a single cow.

Um. I'm right here

When New Ceardia first came out I trapped and got like 20 of them but accidently killed them all because I was to tired to think correctly xD

I have cows that I can breed and sell you. Just hit me up with an in game message or in game mail. You'll be responsible for pickup though as I soooo do not want to relive the transportation of those cows again.

Also, if you look east of the Spawn point in New Ceardia there are some naturally spawning cows and pigs in that area.

 

[ThundrGigglz]

You are right though...they are so rare that I have trapped some cows and pigs in my walls so that if someone per chance breaks in and kills them I can repopulate them.
