Hi guys, just wanted to check if anyone else has noticed this issue so far.
Enemy mobs such as Creepers, Spiders and Zombies which end up in the water are non hostile.
They just bob up and down and cant move, they don't even noticed me or react when I hit them either, although skeletons seem unaffected and can shoot normally. They still play it smart and just camp in the water, which is fine by me.
The other mobs not reacting to me, is not though..
EDIT: I just tried luring a passive mob (chicken) into the water and it gets frozen in a similar fashion, it wont follow me while I have seeds. Though if I push it back on land, it resumes normal behaviour.
They are still hostile and still trying to follow you, there is a bug though that makes them swim impossibly slow.
Yeah I was messing around with it, and it seems kinda inconsistent now. Some mobs are following me, others are not... Getting really strange. Spiders seem to be really freaking out when struck by this bug, they just spin around really fast on the water.
I'll have to check this out. I haven't seen any in water yet.
I've only found this happening so far on Ocean Biomes, I was doing a survival island run on the new snapshot when I noticed that mobs just weren't attacking me when they wandered into the water. (Day or night).
Skeletons still fire at me though.
I'd like to know if this still occurs in other biomes, such as rivers, lakes and the small water pools that crop up.
Heck, even on player-made lakes would be interesting to know. Because as far as I know, this could be exploited into one heckuva mob grinder...
