[MC-100316] Horses and Donkeys on lead will not go uphill

Tried to pull a wild donkey, wild horse, and tamed horse up a square while on lead, and they would not follow, the lead just broke off. Tried it with a sheep and the sheep followed just fine.

I am unable to confirm.

Oh, just noticed something.

up a square while on lead,

I realized I tested on a superflat world. Your issue could be caused by distance, as mobs don't move up blocks as quickly.

I tried the exact same motion with a sheep and a horse, and the sheep worked, the horse didn't

Try doing that exact thing in a superflat world. I only tested one mob.

D L Panther 2016-03-30T21:07:26Z

OK well there's no hills in a super flat world, so I'm not sure how I would test it? The horse moves around just fine on flat land and down hills, just not up

This means that your issue is caused by distance, as leads break after 5 blocks (I believe) of distance between the player and the mob(s) the lead is attached to. Try moving slowly while going up the hill.

Again, mobs don't move up blocks as fast.

Horses don't go up at all, but sheep do... I've played a lot of games where i pull donkeys behind me as storage and it is not working like it used to. when i try to bring the horse or donkey along it just stands there until the lead breaks.

Odd. I just tested it going uphill, and it worked just fine. Maybe try removing the sheep from the lead?

D L Panther 2016-03-30T21:16:57Z

OK well I just found an older open bug about it so you can just merge it with MC-91732 if you want. I don't know what else to say, I'm not trying to leash two animals at the same time all I wanted to do was ride back to the village with a donkey and I couldn't because it was getting stuck on the first uphill block it encountered.

As I don't have mod privileges, I am unable to resolve this as "Duplicate". @@unknown, maybe you could do this for me?

Actually, this is a duplicate of MC-91732

@@unknown Thanks.

Am I the only one who noticed how quickly this was resolved?

D L Panther 2016-03-30T21:30:21Z

Yeah I guess my search mojo was a bit off today, I didn't see the other ticket until we'd already started talking. Thanks.

It happens to the best of us.
