Taking damage from a cactus does not cause the camera to tilt towards the cactus

When taking damage from a cactus, the wobble does not indicate which direction the player took damage from.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Recreate the following setup (both cactus are to the east/west respectively):

  2. Stand in the middle of the two cactus, and face north

  3. Walk into the right (west) cactus
    → ✔ Directional damage tilt is correct.

  4. Walk into the left (east) cactus
    → ❌ Directional damage tilt is the same as before, incorrect now.

Notes:

  1. MC-26678 was properly fixed, allowing the player to take directional damage, but as noted here this does not apply for damage taken from a cactus.

  2. Relates to: MC-259212 MC-26678

We do not have enough information to find the cause of this issue.

Please record a video of this happening and attach it to this report. Please also add steps to reproduce this bug, as well as observed and expected results.

If you are on Windows, you can use Windows+Alt+R to open a built-in app for recording game footage.
If you are on Mac (Mojave or later), you can use Shift+Command+5 to open a built-in app for recording your screen.
In case you don't have a program to record videos, we recommend using the free recording software OBS.
In case the resulting video file is too large to be uploaded to the bug tracker directly, please upload it elsewhere (e.g. as unlisted video on YouTube) and link to it here.

This issue is being temporarily resolved as Awaiting Response. Once the requested information has been delivered, the report will be reopened automatically.

Steps to replicate:
1. Set up a cactus.
2. Enter survival mode.
3. Approach the cactus to incur damage.
4. Rotate your camera while repeatedly taking damage.
The observed behavior is that the camera consistently tilts from your viewpoint in the same direction. The expected behavior would involve the camera tilting towards the direction of the cactus, considering the damage originates from the cactus itself.

I can confirm this in 24w10a.
