 Description   

If a monster spawner is set to spawn slimes, it will fail unless located in a swamp biome or slime chunk. I expected for locational spawn requirements to be overridden by the spawners when checking spawning conditions.

Shown is a group of monster spawners in a flat world. A single cage was placed in a slime chunk, and is the only one of the three to spawn slimes.

This is still an issue on the java edition. I don't know why it has not been fixed there yet.

I can't reproduce in 1.0.0 please comment if it still happens for you.

Does this bug still appear in 0.12.2? If so please respond.

I'm fairly sure this is an intended feature, the spawner needs to be placed inside a slime chunk <level 39.

Confirmed to effect 0.12.1 on iPhone 6 Plus (iOS 9.0).

@MustaphaTR, I was not referring to the spawning of baby slimes (see MCPE-7996), rather, the issue of the spawner's failure to override location-related requirements.

Intended.

Duplicate of MCPE-8248. Because of same reasons spawners not spawn them on peaceful like spawn eggs. They works ok on Normal Difficulty setting.
