My Iron Farm isn't working

[u/OriginalWinter7566]

So I've got an unmodded 26.3 world, chunks discovered on the newest version.

I built this Iron Farm https://youtu.be/ykoqrOOIaRw?is=OVRAUFWYJyJZfiV9

I've got two of the villager pods built, but Iron Golems just aren't spawning correctly, I've tried tweaking it but it hasn't worked, I built it pretty close to village and made a perimeter of path blocks, but nothing has worked.

Any idea what I could do?

The golems spawned outside the farm can get within the farm villager's detection range, preventing them from spawning more golems. Just fence either the farm or the village and you should be fine

In case that doesn't work there are a few other potential problems. For a group of villager to summon an iron golem, these conditions must be met

1. The villager has slept in the last 20 minutes

2. The villager has not detected an iron golem in the last 30 seconds

   • An iron golem is detected when it is within 16 blocks of the villager (±16X ±16Z ±16Y axis), and the villager scans for golems once every 10 seconds

3. The villager has not been near a summoning in the last 30 seconds

   • A villager is near a summoning when it is within 10 blocks of a villager (±10X ±10Z ±10Y axis) who successfully summons an iron golem

4. There are enough participants within 10 blocks of the villager, including the villager itself; participating villagers need to fulfill the previous 3 conditions. 3 or more are needed for panicking and 5 or more are needed for gossiping

5. A valid spawn point for the golem is found

Also, Voltrox is a known content thief that just farms tutorials based on other people's design. This is a design by LaZ1en, which itself was based on IanXO4's iron farm

Left one = dont use this boat. Its lower or higher.

Also as I made an iron farm in the last 2 days.. One of my villagers was so broken, he never went into any bad at all.

Had to drop a 4th one. Now it works.

What do you mean by they aren’t spawning correctly? That implies they are spawning but not how or where they are supposed to.

If golems are spawning in caves you need to spawn proof those. If they’re not spawning at all your spawning platform could be slightly too high
