When attempting to make a snow golem, dispensers can incorrectly place carved pumpkins up to two blocks away from snow blocks in the North, West, and Down directions of the world.
Steps to Reproduce:
This issue cannot be easily replicated in it's entirity, instead, these steps will be a simple reproduction of one of the possible incorrect placements
Give the player a dispenser with carved pumpkins in it:
/give @p dispenser[container=[{slot:0,item:{id:"minecraft:carved_pumpkin",count:64}}]] 1
Replicate the following setup shown here:
[media]
(Dispenser MUST be facing east, or south)
Observed Results:
The dispenser is able to place the pumpkin in a place where it will not produce a snow golen.
Expected Results:
The dispenser should only place a carved pumpkin where it would actually produce a living snow golem.
Screenshots/Videos:
Using the /fill command repeatedly, I have tested every possible location where the carved pumpkin can be placed, and have come up with this:
The orange stained glass is where carved pumpkins can be placed.
The lime green glass is where the carved pumpkins should be able to be placed.
