iron golems do not spawn over solid and moving water
Comments 4
I have been able to reproduce this bug. When making an iron golem (i.e. 4 iron blocks and a carved pumpkin), if water or lava is touching either the head or feet of the iron golem, it will not turn into one. It makes water-transported iron golem farms impossible to create. And, because cats do spawn in water blocks with their entire bodies submerged, but iron golems won't spawn if their feet get wet, I would call this a bug.
I just tested this with newest RTX beta (just to see if it is an issue in any upcoming updates) and the iron golem farm works fine.
@Joseph Atkin, Thank you for reporting on your test. Unfortunately, though, your results are inconclusive. The spawning conditions for player-created iron golems have to do with the block configuration necessary to trigger a spawning event, not the block test that occurs during a spawn attempt. FWIW it is possible to create an iron golem directly over top of water. You just have make sure the blocks immediately under the arms are air.
Thank you for your report!
