Mob farms and structure farms not spawning mobs or spawning too few mobs

      Just updated and now every mob farm on the map is broken, literally wont spawn anything. 

      Conditions, sky spawners definitely not having the cap taken up tested multiple times with one person in world. 

      Seem to still spawn on ground level.

      Recreate  go up to axis y 200 and build a mob farm. The result will be no spawns.

      Stood at this normally very active creeper farm for 2 m/c days and nothing has spawned.

      Workarounds

      Most people should be able to restore their mob farm's operation by placing carpets as the highest block of the roof. If you are currently using bottom slabs or stairs as the highest block, replace them with carpets, otherwise just place carpets on the top blocks.

      A workaround for raid farms (mob farms that use pillager outposts) is described in this comment from Jay Sirrom on 24 Dec.
