Occasionally, hitting an entity with a wind burst mace while above a trapdoor or fence gate prevents the wind burst explosion from launching you upward.
How to reproduce
Dig a 2x2 hole and put 4 trapdoors inside it
Open the trapdoors
Spawn a mob close to the hole
Fall from a few blocks above the hole
Hit the mob with a wind burst enchanted mace while near the hole
Repeat these steps a few times
Expected result
The wind burst enchantment should always propel you into the air.
Observed result
Occasionally, the explosion from the wind burst enchantment does not launch you into the air.
Can confirm.
