Tried building a slime farm in a regular world based on a slime chunk using my seed & chunkbase.com. After a long time of no slimes, I checked the supposed slime chunk in 1.19.2, 1.18.2, & 1.17.1 without any success. Either I'm doing something wrong or the public information about slime chunks is wrong.
Seed: -6287945046413747899
Chunk: (-288, 30, -160) to (-273, 30, -145)
According to https://www.chunkbase.com/apps/slime-finder#-6287945046413747899 and according to https://www.online-java.com/5JEe1zHsNP (using the supposed code snippet for calculating slime chunks from the wiki https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Slime#Java_Edition ) this is a slime chunk and slimes should spawn, regardless of light level, below level 40.
Testing:
Created a new superflat world with the following settings (all other settings should be left as default - eg difficulty should be Normal):
- Remove all layers from superflat (so that it's just air)
- Set seed as above
- Turn off "generate structures"
- Set gamemode to Creative
- Click "Create World"
Upon joining the world:
- Double-tap space to make sure you don't die in the void
- Run
/tp @p -288 30 -160
- Run
/fill -288 29 -160 -273 29 -145 minecraft:glowstone
- If desired, re-run the above command many times with varying Y-levels of depth
- Over time, observe that no slimes spawn in this supposed "slime chunk"
