Gnome spawning behavior
90% sure that gnomes spawn in non player placed walls in the surface forest biome with no npcs nearby, currently flattening out an area and left dirt walls, gnomes are regularly spawning behind them Templan00 (talk) 20:10, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

The gnome doesn't only spawn in living trees. (screenshot)
Here's one that spawned while it was raining. I also saw them spawn in the underground.

Gnome Spawning
Has anyone had any luck spawning Gnomes with player-placed living wood walls/living wood? There are also some reports of Gnomes spawning in the caverns or on the surface during rain. Metalax (talk) 11:04, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Player placed walls block spawning, so I doubt anyone will unless the Gnome is somehow extraordinarily special. Someone should go investigate the code for Terraria to confirm what the exact spawn requirements are. Retep998 (talk) 15:38, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
