I was messing around with the new spawn mechanics and created a ghast farm. My rates where about 15 tears and hour but then I realized I forgot to make the floor magma blocks so skeletons and enderman don't spawn it turns out I got no spawns including ghasts. I made this in the soul sand Valley

I tested it in a soulsand valley and made a 9x9 chunk cleared area from bedrock floor to bedrock ceiling, then replaced the whole floor with magma blocks using commands and I got no spawn whatsoever. The moment I replaced the floor by any other solid spawnable block, ghasts (and other mobs) started spawning instantly.
