How to prevent mob spawns

[Dragonfire967]

A friend and I just got the game, and are loving it so far. Had a question though. We decided to try building our base on one of the other islands instead of the small starter island, but the area we chose had mobs respawning even after building structures.

Is there a way to prevent mob spawning in a area (or will that feature be added at a later time), or does anyone have any recommendations for base locations aside the small starter island beach area?

for now I just build my bases a bit into the air

Yea, we decided until we find another way (or someone offers suggestions), we are building our base off the coast in the ocean as a floating base.

Mobs spawn inside my stone base even when it is built far up in the air. The ground beneath has close to 200 Monos now.

Craft the Talisman Flag in the furniture workbench, these can block the spawns. Listed under decoration, looks like a small black banner.

idk why you would block spawns.. instead put conveyors beneath them and send them to cooking pots

I was about to say the same thing too, they are tools and helpful version to delete unwanted monster in the area but beware the monster still can cross over in the bubble if your planning retreat. The only way best move is set couple flags and enter a dungeon then exit out because it despawn the monster because of they must load the monster in the dungeon and as you exit outside there will be no monster whatever you place the flag at.

Does anyone know if talisman flag will block bosses from spawning outdoors?

I really like an area on a Cherry Blossom island, but a flower boss spawns there.

Havent played for some time and never built things close to boss spawns but.... there's an easy way to make sure:
- plant a flag next to a boss spawn location while the boss isnt here (not spawned yet or dead)
- use an indulgence of anubis scroll (the scroll that makes bosses respawn).
If the boss doesnt respawn, the flag is doing his job.

Thank you, this seems to work!
