[MC-261026] The player's head is not fully synced with the mouse cursor

In earlier versions, the player's head used to be fully synchronized with the mouse cursor when you turn your head. This might still be a thing in Bedrock Edition.
If you move your head in either direction in versions where the head rotation is interpolated, it is not fully synchronized with the mouse. Here are some videos comparing from b1.7.3 to 1.19.4.

The solution is to make the head not use the interpolate rotation function. It should be using the regular rotation yaw variable, so it properly synchronizes with mouse movement.

I think that is more like an feature request than a bug.

you sure??? the player head movement used to be much smoother than it is now

Are you referring to the player head movement being delayed in comparison to the cursor movement?

EnderDamien 2023-03-23T14:01:57Z

yes.

Then, this is working as intended as per the triaging of MC-258579, as that ticket is about the lack of this behavior while riding a vehicle.
