You don't take fall damage when riding 1.9+ boat off a high area

Is already marked as affected.

The following is based on a decompiled version of MC 1.12 using mcp940.

Please link this in the description of the report.

In the method _{net.minecraft.entity.item.EntityBoat.updateFallState()} you have a piece of code that will always set the fall distance to 0 if the boat is not on land, its actually just wrong placed in the method.

The piece of code:
if (this.status != EntityBoat.Status.ON_LAND) 
{ 
this.fallDistance = 0.0F; 
return; 
}

Method with wrong placed: 

Method with right placed: 

If this is fixed, MC-98160 will be fixed too.

Hope this kinda helps 🙂
