villagers ahve problems with multifloor pathing or pathing through multiple doors.
they cant find their workstations if you move them and non is withint 10 blocks on level ground..
even when i put stairs there for them to go down
villager pathing should prefer to climb stairs over blocks..
they should never path over a lit campfire and hurt themselves or anything that hurts them at least once ( leaarn to avoid pricly bushes and enther roses after once touched and hurt)
they should not try to climb on top of workstations.. it seems they only lok at x and z for location and not y . and thus if a workstation moved below they cant find it to recharge.. they go to the xz location and hang out there thinking the workstation is under thier feet..
they should path to the SIDE of the bolcks of the workstation and not the top
1. they look stupid always climbing on top of the workstaion . even wehn its not possible.
2. if you ahve somethign on top say a end rod for light.. they path and get stuck there and cant get off
3. any time they get stuck and cant move for 10 seconds they should try a diffrent way
( they seem to think that a diagonal move is ok when they cant actually move diagonally to that block. and will plant thier face in a corner and get stuck.. same with xombies and other mobs. .. its pathetic.. and certainly a bug.. they should be smart enough to decide to go left or right and find a new way as they havent reached destination within an allotied time..
of course they can stop or give up if they dont have anywhere to go
it would be FANTASTIC to see a though bubble upgrade to villagers and friendlies..
ie wants liek food or workstation or bed. or babies..
naming a baby villager with a nametag should keep it a baby.. same with animals. 🙂
or naming it and feedign it a golden apple ?

still exists all villagers seem to want to climb on to the edges of their workstations rather than stand beside them . and in farmers this is annoying as the workstation has a range in which they farm so you want the station in the middle where the water is.. and they climb on then jump down and trample crops. .

The best example to show this issue in Vanilla is with the Plains Armorer House, the Blast Furnace is placed in a Chimney deep in the wall, the Armorer Villager keeps constantly jumping on top of the Smooth Stone that generates here and getting cornered while it can’t interact with the Blast Furnace, although this seems to block their POI pathfinding they don’t lose the profession if this one has claimed the workstation successfully before.

Still present in 1.16.4. The Armorer house in Plains Village is still inaccessible for the Villager as it keeps jumping up the ledge on the side and never reaches the Blast Furnace.

Still Present in 21w05b. The "indoor" is misleading because it happens also outdoor. Seems to be related with pathfinding. I'll attach two short videos. If i remove one of the blocks where the villager keeps standing, he sometimes manages to recognize the workstation when falling. If not, he walks to the other sides block, and if this block gets removed too then he'll find the workstation.
This ticket is actually a duplicate of MC-155269.
Please check if this is still an issue for you in 1.16 Release Candidate 1 or later.
