The Bug
When using the /place feature
command to place this feature, it does not work when the player is near on the ground.
Reproduce
Can only reproduce this when I'm floating off the ground (more than 10 blocks)
Use
/place feature
command with any of the following items:minecraft:pile_hay
minecraft:pile_ice
minecraft:pile_melon
minecraft:pile_pumpkin
minecraft:pile_snow
Observed Result
The game said it was loaded but nothing appeared.
Expected Result
The feature would be properly placed or the error message "Failed to place feature" would come up.

Can confirm in 1.18.2.

It seems that they do work, but only server-side like MC-248249. Unless the player is not on the ground, as mentioned in the description, then they are not placed at all.
Can confirm in 22w18a. The "/placefeature" command was removed and replaced with the "/place" command in 22w18a, so here's a new example command required in order to reproduce this issue.
/place feature minecraft:pile_pumpkin ~ ~ ~

See also MC-187125.

Can confirm in 22w19a.

this bug also works on ores

@unknown That is MC-248301.

This appears when using the /place feature command as well, any time the affected piece is generated by that command. Right-clicking the block where it should be with an empty hand will cause it to appear client-side.
Can confirm in 1.19.2.

I ran into this issue when just messing around in creative mode, I was just placing a few villages next to each other making a large village and the village had these black spots that would turn into hay bale whenever you place any block on them.

I can confirm this behavior.
