I am playing on the latest snapshot in hardcore mode, I am currently trying to collect end pearls, so I jump on my horse each sunset and ride to a desert a few hundred blocks away. At dawn I ride back, the distance between the desert and my base is about 1000 blocks total.
I have found that when going back to the desert near sunset, there are a lot of hostile mobs still standing around from when I left the last day. For example, upon returning to the desert I see a lot of zombies and skeletons walking around on fire, I think they are being saved on the chunk and when it re-loads in the daytime they are getting sunfire.
I do not think they are spawning in the daylight, since none spawn near by base, and occassionally I will get to parts of the desert where skeletons take 1 hit of an iron sword to kill (I think they were on fire when I left the desert, and have it extinguished when I re-enter).
Also, my horses have been disappearing if I save an exit while riding one

Is this a known issue or is something wrong?
