If scaffolding is placed on a block whose collision box is aligned with the top of its voxel, but is not flat, the scaffolding will not see that block as a lower support and remain a falling block entity.
This does not happen for other gravity-affected blocks (sand, gravel, anvils, concrete powder).
-
To reproduce this behavior, place/drop a scaffolding block on top of one of the following blocks with collision:
Hopper
Cauldron
Anvil
Iron Bar or Glass Pane (same collision box)
Bell
Grindstone
Open Trapdoor
Door
Stair (half=bottom)
Bamboo
