I actually had the same thought Bryndon; I play on a realm too, we made a creeper spawner, which I now think doesn't even work properly with the trapdoors on the roof as a couple of skellies have spawned in it, anyway, that's a different problem, so I turned the world to passive in hopes to clear out all the mobs, which it seemed to do, then logged back in and still nothing spawned. At first I thought maybe it's a lighting glitch where too much light gets through solid block in this version or something, but mobs don't really seem to spawn in it at night either. I'll have to try taking the roof off and see if this changes anything.
If this is the case, this takes out the option of basically any mob spawner as there are always multiple layers. I guess I could try just making an 8 wide platform that is 100 blocks long and get water to dispense mobs off it, but that would then require afking at night, and that would just piss people off on a realm. Bleh, why can't they just code spawning the same? 😞
