When baby zombies are chasing and attacking players and villagers, they sometimes stop for a second and look somewhere else, and continue attacking after 1 second.
They also completely stop attacking the player, if he keeps standing still. See the video clip attachment.
How to reproduce: This consistently happens every time they manage to hit the player, and they freeze if the player keeps standing still

There could be more mobs that are affected by this.

Confirmed for 1.15.2 Pre-1

They also sometimes run back and forth when attacking the player.

This bug can be closed now that MC-147516 is closed too

This happens with any melee mobs, not just baby zombie mobs. As my video is too big, link is here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ixqyusfzdfyzlf5/Minecraft_1.16.1_-_Singleplayer_2020-06-30_19-39-46.mp4/file

I cant confirm this after fixing MC-147516

Fixed in 20w21a

Then why has it been marked as affected?


This is not fixed, and needs a reopen. They still randomly stop, and it actually got worse after 20w21a.

I can't even reproduce it the same way it was before the fix. They don't stop attacking if you stand still.
Any leftover bugginess is under MC-2310
