duplicates MC-1522 Fence gate closes when destroying adj... Resolved
CHK:
Confirmation Status: Confirmed
Game Mode: Survival

 Description   

Since now you are not supposed to be able to close or open trapdoors, fence gates or regular doors with a left click. Any time you try to break something (torch, dirt block etc) through any of those will close them. Will happen in both survival and creative.

What I expected to happen was...:
That the torch would break only.

What actually happened was...:
The fence gate closed itself when I broke a torch trough it. The torch also broke.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place a fence gate with a torch or any other breakable block in front of it.
2. Stand on the opposite side and open the fence gate.
3. Break the torch/other block.

Confirmed in 1.4.4.
Linked to a "Fixed" issue for reference.

That cannot be the reason because THE SAME THING happens with a regular door

Comment by adam giraudet [ 01/Nov/12 ]

this is because the HITBOX* is still streched across the gate unlike when a door is opened and the hitbox follows the door.
*the hitbox is the area within the black lines and the area from where somthin reacts
