[MC-130270] Iron golem spawning inside blocks

The bug

Iron golems sometimes can generate inside a block that is not transparent, for example, stones. Then it will fall down inside the block if the below is empty, if the below is another non-transparent block, it will be trapped inside that block.

Weird! Iron Golems can be generated inside a door in the new snapshot........

Definitely an issue for iron farms.

I've noticed that iron golems aren't spawning altogether now, have afk'd near spawner for hours. Door count and Villager count are met.

same problem in 1.13 pre1

It's very frustrating, I have a little iron farm and now I have to suffocate all of the fail spawned iron golems... :|

Iron Golums spawn inside any block. (solid, glass, slabs, stairs, doors etc) This has been happening since at least version 1.9 but seems to happen more frequently now.

Affects 1.13 pre-2 too. 🙂

Ray Yates 2018-06-17T05:40:19Z

1.13 Pre-2 I tried expanding the size of the spawning area in my iron farm only to have the golum spawn with his head inside a solid block. This is seriously messed up. It even happens in normal villages when I increased the number of doors. See screenshot.

same problem on my pre1 server

Wei Wang 2018-06-18T17:18:43Z

There is one way to solve this problem:

just build another layer 3 blocks lower than the spawning floor, the iron golem will drop down to this new layer and can be collected by water.
Also, you should add a soild block out of the door to avoid the iron golem spawn inside the door.

Ray Yates 2018-06-19T22:55:28Z

Sorry but that does not solve the problem, they don't fall through. The golum gets stuck in the floor, wall, ceiling, door, glass blocks, half slabs. They apparently just spawn randomly anywhere within the spawning area without regard to what's there.

It would greatly help testing to have access to a map with a spawner built that has these issues 🙂

I have a map with this occurrence, but the file has 150Mb, how can I send it?

Here is a zip file with a world. An Iron farm with a golem stuck in it is where my player is currently located

Another example in picture

A1 - inside glass

A2 - inside glass

A3 - inside glass

A4 - inside rock

Iron Red in left, Died alone

the problem is the gap ( A1, A2,A3 and P2 )

may be the same problem reported in MC-69919 of 2014

Not fully fixed in 1.13-pre4. Iron golems momentarily spawn in blocks then remove themselves.

This currently happens on Xbox (Bedrock) version 1.8. I have a small village I created from a couple of cured zombie villages right by my base and at least 50% of the time when they spawn a golem it spawns with from the waist down inside the garden dirt block.

When this happens they do not remove themselves they are permanently stuck inside the blocks until killed.
