    Zombies and skeletons cannot pick up items. They can wear plate or chain armor, but it won’t protect them.

    • The armor has no chance of dropping.

    When I say No baby animals or monsters, I mean no baby animals, no baby monsters.

    And no noise caves or canyons. Only small carver caves.
    There might be aquifers, just like the original Survival Test.

    Zombies and skeletons do not sink in water in this survival game mode. If either of these mobs are submerged, they will drown shortly.

    Spiders cannot climb blocks, but they can create webs randomly. Webs slow the player down and negate fall damage.

    There is an option to add the deep dark and warden to the survival test game mode. It is still limited to the Alpha world height limit and depth limit.
