Empty window style in desert villages in some houses lets baby zombies attack villagers

The Bug

In desert villages, there are ''windows'' with air. But in some houses, they are just 1 block above the ground, which allows baby zombies to enter that and attack villagers. See in the screenshots.

Generic affected structures are:

desert_small_house_1

desert_small_house_2

desert_small_house_4

 

Profession affected structures are:

desert_library_1

desert_fletcher_house_1

desert_shepherd_house

 

It can be even reproduced in these during thunderstorms when villagers are working, because of MC-146143

To reproduce:

  • Find or load one of listed structures

    /place template minecraft:village/desert/houses/{structure}
  • Set the time to night

  • Spawn a villager inside the house

  • Spawn a baby zombie outside the house in front of the window

  • →❌ Observe that it enters through the window, and tries to attack the villager

Fix

Change the structures to have it at least 1,5 blocks above the ground or give the flowerpot a new property

Cannot reproduce in 21w44a; baby zombies are unable to pathfind through the gap.

In 22w07a, the desert_small_house_1 (small home with cyan bed and terracotta in the roof) generates without its potted cactus. Creepers can thus see you in the house, approach, and explode. As it is only one block, I presume a baby zombie could also enter and attack you or a villager.

Just checked. Can reproduce in 22w07a; baby zombies are able to pathfind through the gap and gank you.

Can confirm in 23w03a

Can confirm in 1.21.4. Also would like to request ownership of this report to maintain/edit it.
