                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-23835</link>
                <project id="10200" key="MCPE">Minecraft (Bedrock codebase)</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Updated steps to reproduce in &lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-23835?focusedCommentId=973199&amp;amp;page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-973199&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;comment&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Better Together Update / 1.2.0.2 patch notes say:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;- Mobs will now avoid cacti, fire, and lava&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But they don&apos;t seem to avoid fire at all.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Avoiding lava seems to work perfectly for most mobs, except slimes. Slimes literally jump in lava.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How to reproduce:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;alternate&quot; type=&quot;square&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Put a very simple fire maze/wall around a villager or a zombie for example&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Most of the time they will just walk through the fire&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

The zombie still goes straight through the fire instead of pathing around it.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="973199" author="goldenhelmet" created="Thu, 15 Apr 2021 23:17:56 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;Confirmed in 1.16.220 for villagers. Some mobs, for example sheep, do not avoid damaging blocks by design. These seem to be the creatures that are supposed to be less intelligent. So I think it is probably intended for slimes and zombies to not avoid fire and lava. We would also expect iron_golems to be undeterred by fire/lava because they are tough and have a more important job to do in defending villages.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Villagers, however, avoid rain, and I would expected them to be intelligent enough to avoid fire and lava. This bug may affect more than just villagers, and it may impact some pathfinding behaviors more than others (for example, moving to attack vs. random wandering), but it is easiest to reproduce by getting villagers to try to go to POI.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Steps to reproduce:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;/gamerule dofiretick false&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;On a flat, solid surface, fill a 5 x 5 area with fire.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Remove the fire from the center block.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Spawn a villager in the center block (so that it is surrounded by 2 blocks of fire on every side.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Place a bed and workstation a few blocks outside of the fire.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;


&lt;h4&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Expectedresult&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Expected result&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The villager does not move.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Actualresult&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Actual result&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The villager walks and jumps through the fire to get to its workstation.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Have a villager or zombie near lava with nowhere else to go. Instead of staying still, like they would do with any other threat, they jump straight into lava. IF it does not happen, repeat a few more times, or wait 10 minutes.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="477259" author="boidster" created="Fri, 27 Jul 2018 23:07:41 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;FWIW, in 1.5.2 I see slimes jump right into very large bodies of lava all the time. It&apos;s not like there&apos;s a lava square and the slimes are so big they can&apos;t avoid it. They just hop right into a &lt;del&gt;lava lake&lt;/del&gt; &lt;del&gt;flowing lava pool (not lava source blocks)&lt;/del&gt;&#160;lava lake* and go poof.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;*Upon further inspection, it was all lava source blocks. The correction has been corrected.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="474677" author="boidster" created="Sun, 22 Jul 2018 04:55:36 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;Also happens in iOS 1.5.0. Not only do the villagers walk through the fire, once they start burning they seem&#160;&lt;em&gt;attracted&lt;/em&gt; to the fire and just circle around in it until they croak.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
