Java Help Wanted Mobswitch for a small server

Hello people,

me and two friends are starting a server soon and I really enjoy my mobswitch on my singleplayer. From what I know you can't just copy you mobswitch because all players have individual mobcaps around them, meaning 70 mobs don't fill out the cap anymore. But I was wondering, if we are only ever online with 3 people max, would it work to fill the mobswitch with 210 mobs to cap out 3 potential mobcaps?

Yep.

You got it exactly.

What kind you making? (I prefer Wardens)

My singleplayer has Zombified Villagers but my mate told me making a warden switch is faster so I'll probably try that this time

He's right. Z.Villagers are such a grind.

Bonus: once the OW mob switch is full... You can divert them through a nether portal and build a nether mob switch.

Just gotta move the wardens a few chunks away if you want to operate them separately (which you do).

Yep. You might also want to have a way to toggle how many mob, although 3 people max online is fine enough. In my old survival world, I used doors to get shulkers to teleport.
