[Question] Alts and Loading Chunks

[Bunni]

I've been told by a few people that if you have 2 accounts loading in the same spawners apparently the spawn rate is more then if you just had the one account.
I haven't heard of this before but interested to know if that is actually a thing.

Hey!
I did hear this the other day myself.
As a staff i have never heard of this, so i decided to test it myself.
From my testing i found that having multiple accounts in a spawner chunk do not affect the spawn rate.
I also heard that if you have 1 player in the chunk, the spawner will always spawn 1 per cycle. I also found this false in my testing.

In vanilla more players in a chunk increase the mobcap, but the spawners on mana is not set by the vanilla configs. Example: The mobs are passive

Im not saying this is the truth, but its what i found from my testing. If anyone actually have any evidence or numbers to support their claims of this, i am very interested in taking a look at that!

What kind of spawners? When I stood alone with x64 Ig spawners they spawned between 1-4 per spawner per cycle. Which they are supposed to.

Edit: Done some more testing where i put 2 accounts in the chunk (spawners loaded were Igs,enderman, piglins, spider), and compared my infinity sell income per 5 min. It did NOT increse. If mobspawns would have increased, the income should also have increased.

Based on my testing with infinity chest and overnight selling. It does not seem to matter how many alts are in the chunk. I got the same amount of money per hour.

Same result I got then, thanks for confirming.

I did some testing myself with 64 spawners. When I did it with only myself and then with my alts included I was getting the same spawn rate. I think what was confusing was having multiple groups of spawners and they were bunching up which made the spawn count look higher.
