How to prevent monsters from spawning in your base

[MariaLG]

Hello does anyone know how to prevent monsters from spawning inside the base you have made, do you need to place something or anything like that?

I'm also interrested by this. I tried putting torches everywhere in my base but they keep spawning.

[Doggochi]

Same, hope someone knows.

ive tried both lights and fences, but same, dont think theres a way to keep them from spawning

So far I don't think there is a way to stop spawns on your base. Maybe build a floating base. I havent tried that.

@MaWie PoWie ヅ, unfortunately it is not possible to prevent mobs from spawning into your base (not like Minecraft) specially if you have made a base from other ruins/houses who had mobs in it. Better create a base in a clean area that mobs don't spawn.

Already a fellow player build one but has a problem with a mob spawn on top which it shouldn't.

I built a bed, and monsters stopped spawning in my area ^^,
Hope it helps

[Fred]

I will try it. Thanks !

edit: it worked for me. I dont have monster in my garden anymore... but now there is a bed and it looks weird ^^

I build a house with 5 blocks +/- higher from the ground, with walls and roof, put all things inside, till now its all ok, no monsters appear inside

I did discover how to stop monster to spawn, you need to place a Bed in somewhere around.
I did build a floating house and MOBs was spawning above it, when I place the Bed in my room they just stop to spawn.

Lightsource doesn't make any differences and the Bed has a huge AoE, so you don't need to place ir right where you want, you can build a room or something like that to put the bed there.

Same here. Bed isn't fullproof.

Maybe Bed with lightsource? With that, I don't know what can prevent enemies to spawn.
Maybe isn't only Bed or lightsource, there's something more we didn't see yet.

I've tried the bed alone, bed + lightsource, walls and doors, etc. The only place I've seen that consistently doesn't have monsters spawn is the pad thing that you spawn onto the island from. So until I get a dev saying 'this or this' I'm guessing we need to incorporate that spawning pad into our bases for now.

This may explain why in my Purple Pillars home world mobs only spawn in two areas (one being in the back of my base...), each with no broken beds in ruined houses.

I dont know. I actually have done this and mobs still spawn pretty close...
