 Description   

I believe this is really a conflict between ladders and the mechanics of flying. Considering you can stop on a ladder while crouching, and flying down is ALSO by crouching. The ladders and vines are taking hold of the player, thus making flying down in jungles, or flying down 1 block holes with ladders in them near impossible.

Sorry, nevermind this bug seems to be fixed. I was actually experiencing MC-12829.
@Thulxyphan, if you are not just slowed down (see MC-12829), but completely stopped, then please provide detailed reproduction steps and if possible also a video showing the bug.

Also happens in 1.4.7 prerelease

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 28/Dec/12 ]

I have seen this since before 1.2. The fix would do just disregard ladders and vines while flying, or have a different key for flying down and crouching.
