There have been several bug reports created on Mojang's bug tracker since the early 1.8 snapshots, including the 1.8 released version, regarding the fact that bows and arrows don't work when fired from a boat. One of the latest, which I submited, is MC-70401. As the primary ranged weapon in this game I have been amazed that this bug has yet to be assigned and more amazed that 1.8 was allowed to be released in this condition. So this got me to wonder if only some of us have problems with using a bow and arrow while out on the water in a boat. So I thought I would ask here...
Is anyone running Vanilla 1.8 in survivor mode, with or without cheats, on a Windows PC, able to use a bow and arrow from within a boat? If you have no problems shooting a bow and arrow from a boat then please respond and include some system information.
I have no problems shooting a bow and arrow, accurately, on any 1.7 version from 1.72 thru 1.7.9. (I've never tried 1.7.10).
Thanks,
Bob
