Villagers and mobs try to pathfind through corners

I added some more pictures of mobs not following anymore if they reach bamboo.

If I remember correctly, this is a feature of the AI appearing when it's not supposed to. Ordinarily, when the AI cannot create a path from the monster to its target, it will attempt to simply get as close as possible without entering a hazard. However, in these cases, the monster clearly has a very short path to follow but is prevented from following the path. This definitely relates to my MC-142964, except manifesting in a comically more severe way. In fact let me test this...

Well, part of your error is something more obvious - mobs path through Bamboo like they would tall grass; they ignore it entirely.

Confirmed in 19w12b. I edited the ticket a bit (I hope you're fine with that, OP) and attached a video showcasing this bug.

This behaviour can also be observed with villagers in snowy tundra villages. They try to get in and out of their igloos by going through their corners.

Still in 19w13a

This happens very, very frequently in Savanna Villages, since most the Houses are based with no Corners Villagers gets stuck there trying to reach their Beds even if the Door is close to them.

Still in 19w14a

Still in 19w14b and 1.14 Pre-Release 1

Still in 1.14 Pre-Release 2

Added images of Savanna villagers when they walk around corners and they begin to jump up and down. They eventually stop but some have stayed out at night not able to reach their beds.

Villagers leave their village never to return. I watched a villager wander off from a taiga village; I followed him for 400 blocks as he walked purposefully away from everyone and everything he knew. Last I saw him he was headed for a bamboo forest

My comment was marked resolved as a duplicate of this ticket, but I don't see any comments relating specifically to my issue so I am copying my comment from the other ticket to here.

The issue you're describing is entirely unrelated to this ticket. Please create a new report.

Still in 1.14 pre-3, 1.14 pre-4 and 1.14 pre-5

Still in 1.14 Release

Yes, the problem still prevails in the latest 1.14 release:

I wanna know why this is not still resolved, 29 votes + 4 votes on MC-147905 + 5 votes on MC-101424 + 4 votes on MC-110390 + many others!

Edit: I know its not high priority, but its still a bug that as all other bugs shall be squashed.
Imagine a new player on a wooden home hidden on a corner of his house...
And them his entire house explodes and he dies, not understanding anything that happened he questions to himself: "why did my house explode"

Confirmed (esp. for cats + villagers) in 1.14 official. They also try to jump onto 1.5 block high structures, like block+slab fences

Finally assigned! Hopefully gets fixed for 1.14.1
I was waiting for so long to see this Issue catching the attention of Mojang, specially in this Update where you can find it more commonly with Illagers and Villagers.

Hopefully MC-96319 gets squashed too, it's another Bug that can be reproduced more commonly in this Update.

I wonder if this solves other pathfinding issues for villagers. In particular I have noticed, trying to pathfind under trap doors (making a less than two block high space), trying to pathfind over carpets in a two block high space (villagers are too tall), pathfinding to the nearest wall or roof to their workstation, even when a perfectly acceptable path to the workstation exists, pathfinding to glass panes or walls instead of to doors, climbing ladders and getting stuck at the top on a closed trapdoor (and not leaving). And those are just what I've noticed in the past few days.

I also hope this fix indirectly the obstruction issue that happens in Villagers and of course in other Mobs where they don't count Bamboo, Lanterns and Flower Pots as obstructions, making them try to Pathfind directly through these Blocks resulting in see Mobs often get stuck instead of Pathfind around these Blocks.
I found this when I tried to make a Jungle Village close to a Bamboo Forest and when the Villagers started the "Wander" Schedule they often get stuck around the Bamboo (Most of the times is just 1 Bamboo in front of them what causes the problem), same for Golems, Zombies or any kind of Mob and since I noticed the Reporter of this Issue added a Picture with Bamboo so it might be a double Fix (Hopefully).

— Villagers and of course in other Mobs where they don't count Bamboo, Lanterns and Flower Pots as obstructions
Same thing to fences. MC-147905

MC-96319 is also getting fixed. And this Issue is directly the problem with Mobs Pathfind not regarding some Blocks as obstructions (Bamboo, Lanterns, Flower Pots, Mob Heads, End Rods, etc.)
Thankfully both Bugs that raised in this Update due to how common are getting reproduced are finally fixed after Months/Years. Kudos on Henrik for the fix of these Issues.

Why is this resolved? I have a similar issue on 1.11.4 Bedrock for Nintendo Switch. I’ve seen villagers not being able to reach workstations and beds even when they are on the other side of the door between them. It’s almost as if they don’t know how to use the door half of the time unless it’s open. Villagers end up staying outside at night or run directly into zombies. It’s very annoying because I often see villagers hanging around the overhang of the roof or walking back and forth outside to get to the bed from outside instead of using the door.

Fixed for Java Edition.

It’s an issue in bedrock Edition too. Villager path finding is awful. Forget about building two story buildings  because Villagers can barely find themselves in a house. They also don’t respond to the bell sometimes. I don’t know if I should create a separate report because there are several issues. I sometimes wish that they never change the formula from doors to beds.

This section of the bug tracker is for Java Edition only. For Bedrock Edition, please visit the MCPE project.

This bug is back again in 19w36a, but may be only when doing certain AI tasks.  I've seen a villager path-find into a pair of diagonal fence posts while heading to work.  but seem to avoid doing so when doing other things.

@unknown, if so, please create a new ticket (and link to this ticket in the description).

Sorry about that.  Though, the bug seems to be different this time around so I've created a ticket for a "different" bug; one regarding villagers path-finding to work (and possibly other targets as well).  Because this time around it might just be them path-finding straight to the target as opposed to path-finding thru corners.
