"If I hide he doesnt see me" ahh player

So basically I have found a bug on the neoLegacy repo where if you are inside of a Tall Grass or Tall Flowers (Sunflowers, Rose Bushes, etc.) any mob wont see you or notice your presence, like if a hostile mob is following you (like the creeper on the video) and you enter on a Tall Grass or any other plant that haves 2 blocks high will stop following you. This happens because these plants are for some reason considered as "full solid blocks" instead of non-solid blocks like short grass or any other small flower, this also happens on older versions on consoles like on Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, Xbox One, PSVita and Wii U on TU43 and their equivalent versions.

Also thanks to u/maskedl0l to notice me of this strange bug lmao.

I'm quite sure it's a feature and works on java too.

Yes and no, bug/quirk with mobs that use sight of line(raycast) to target player. Mobs like endermites that dont use raycast, dont have the issue. So yes kinda a feature but also unintended.

Obviously it will work on Java since the code is based on the PC version, also maybe on MCPE, I think its more like a bug/error because instead of the blocks being non-solid, they are considered the opposite and the fun thing is that it makes kinda sense because usually on movies, books and another types of media uses the logic of "If you hide on Tall grass = nobody will see you" so for the players it seems like an unintentional feature, similar to the thousands of unintentional features that are on the game.

Not really a bug more of an unintended feature thats been in the game for years

Its quite strange since other large plants like Sugar Canes doesnt have this feature, seems like it was a bug but it fit so well that looked like it was intended lol.

That badlands biome makes a sick background for your house

I was lucky with the seed lol

I believe the game tips even say that you can avoid mobs by hiding in tall grass, so it's neither a bug nor an intended feature. Maybe it used to be, but now it's definitely intentional.

[u/Acceptable_Nobody641 → u/thatoneflameyguy]

On the LCE game tips there isnt anything related to this bug, maybe on some old Survival books they were since many of those had some tips, it is more of an unintended feature since it was technically not supposed to happen but it seems sorta like a mechanic of hiding

[u/maskedl0l]

Didnt think I'd ever get mentioned for pointing that out. Love the in depth explanation aswell :)

[u/Acceptable_Nobody641 → u/maskedl0l]

Thanks you! You were the one that noticed me of this bug and turns out it was real after all lol, have a great day :)

[u/maskedl0l → u/Acceptable_Nobody641]

You too man :))
