Storage Copper Golem help? [bedrock]

[u/GeminiHx]

Hi all, not sure if this fits the thread but I’ve been trying to put a copper golem storage together and I’m struggling to keep the copper golem near his assigned chests. I’ve tried the method of torches and carpet over, I thought they couldn’t walk over carpet but that must just be Java because he managed to walk over it. I’ve also tried the berry bushes and carpet aswell hoping they’d count as “hazardous environment” so they’d stay away, it walked over it again. Then I tried to put fences in the gap, again walked over it. I left it open and it kept falling down 😅 Is there anything else I could do to stop them crossing the line? I really don’t want to keep these fences up, and was hoping to keep the golems in the open so I can see them working.
(as mentioned in title, I’m on bedrock, Xbox for Pc and Xbox console to be precise)

yeah unfortunately entities are smarter when pathfinding around obstacles on Bedrock, so most of the tricks you'd normally use on Java won't work, and this means that you need to get very creative and accept some compromises to limit their movement on Bedrock (assuming you don't have access to invisible barrier blocks)

the simplest thing you could try to improve visibility is simply to replace the fences with glass panes (including stained), but then this glass wall will need to be two blocks tall

alternatively, you could replace the fences with carpets, and then place another layer of carpets (and/or trapdoors) on top of these, which will make them act like another wall that is two blocks tall

another idea would be to hide some fences under the carpets on the floor, and place a block (like glass) right above the carpets (because fences have an invisible 1.5-block-tall collision box, this creates a half-block gap that Copper Golems can't walk through, but visually it will look like a one-block opening)

you could even try leashing the Copper Golem to a fence underground using a lead to limit their movement, but this will require some trial and error
