Striders take fall damage when landing in lava

The situation is the same with all entities in the game, including the player.

I guess this is probably due to the fix for MC-190266 

In 1.16.1 release:

1. players and other entities can catch on fire after logging on while riding a strider in lava

2. striders dont take fall damage when landing on lava

In snapshot 20w27a:

1.players and other entities no longer can catch on fire after logging on while riding a strider in lava.

2. striders now take fall damage when landing on lava 

I can confirm for 20w46a.

Confirmed in 20w49a.

Can confirm in 20w51a. Seems intentional.

Can confirm in 21w03a.

no...this shouldn't be intentional, how could a mob take fall damage on their own 'land'? other fire resistent mobs such as zombified piglins just sink but never hit hard on lava. this should be fixed in future versions.

Can confirm in 21w06a. Just to inform you @unknown, the bug tracker is not a discussion forum. If you wish to discuss bugs, please do so on either the Mojira Reddit or Mojira Discord.

I added 21w07a to the list, and although some comments were saying things like it only applies to fall damages higher than 32 blocks, however I tested distances under 32 blocks (10 to 20 blocks) and the striders took damage, just like the 1.16.2 snapshots where I originally discovered this bug. The lava is deep enough, although I doubt depth has anything to do with it as they take damage (or die at high heights) immediately as they hit the lava. Unable to reproduce with mobs besides striders.

And whether this is intentional or not depends on Mojang Studios.

Can confirm in 21w11a.

Can confirm in 21w15a.

If a player is riding a strider and holding warped fungus on a stick when it lands then it won't get any damage.

Can confirm in 1.17.

Can confirm in 1.17.1.

Can confirm in 1.18 Pre-release 1.

Can confirm in 1.18 Pre-release 4.
