Hello. I have a question about weather or not having view distance set lower than 10 still affects mob spawning? I fiddled with this setting in the old 1.2.3 days. Back then I limited view distance to 7, but found that hardly any mobs would spawn, so I reverted view distance back to 10 and haven't messed with it since. I am curious if this issue has been fixed in recent updates.
Same issue. My view distance is 7 and harly any mobs spawn at all. Difficulty is hard in bukkit.yml and multiverse. Mobs are set to true.
It's something to do with the distance bukkit normally spawns mobs at. Modifying the amount of mobs that spawn doesn't fix the lack of spawning when view distance is set below 10.
