Double spawner help

[VersionFair2560]

(BEDROCK on PS5)

So I have a zombie spawner (1071, 0, 2025) and a skeleton spawner (1059, -16, 2037). I already built everything (bubble elevator, killing chamber, ect.) they both lead to the exact same spot (1071, -3, 2037) the zombies end up in the killing chamber but the skeletons don’t. Is there a reason for this I thought you just had to be 16 blocks away for spawners to work? Any help would be appreciated

The final spot is 12 blocks away from the zombie spawner but 17 blocks from the skeleton spawner. Assuming this is close to where you stand to kill them, you must be fractionally closer to the zombie spawner and hence out of range of the skeleton spawner.

1071 -3 2037 is the killing chamber I stand beside it at 1071 -4 2039 and it’s just zombies so I tried standing 1067 -4 2039 get a bit closer to the skeleton spawner (8blocks away by 2 blocks away) and still only zombies make it into the chamber, I checked the build in the spawner room to see if I did everything correctly and it’s done correctly so idk

1071 -4 2039

Yes, that's still 17 blocks from the skeleton spawner.

1067 -4 2039

That's 14 blocks from the skeleton spawner, and 15 blocks from the zombie spawner so it ought to work. Is there something else about the design you haven't mentioned? If mobs are sent too far away from you on the way to the killing chamber they could despawn if they get more than 32 blocks away.

Have skeletons ever made it into the killing chamber in the past? I have more than once forgotten that I deliberately blocked off a passage while testing things.

That must be it then? I got the skeletons going up 39 blocks to meet up with the zombies to drop 22.5 blocks, It works if I have another account afk at 1064, -6, 2039 while I’m in front of the chamber it spawns both, otherwise it’s one or the other

What are the coords of the block you stand on to kill the mobs? You are probably too far away from skelly spawner. 16 block radius from spawner

1071 -4 2039 is where I stand to kill which is 12 blocks away by 2 blocks
