When more than 1 Copper Golem are operating in the same area, there is a small chance that 2 of them will walk into each other at a specific angle (facing perfectly toward one another) and they will get stuck standing there permanently.
The only way to “un-stick” them is by manual player intervention. This means the Copper Golems have a small chance of getting stuck permanently and they won’t complete their tasks unless a player is directly supervising them.
Environment
For context, I have a bulk storage building in my Minecraft world. I had multiple Copper Golems sorting the items into various chests in the building. While I was in my main base doing other things (away from the storage building), I came back only to realize that all of the Copper Golems were stuck facing into one another and none of my items had been sorted, even though I was still somewhat nearby. They had all somehow managed to be facing into one another and gotten themselves permanently stuck.
I feel like this issue could be easily resolved/prevented entirely by having the Copper Golems “push” or “slide” off of each other easier to prevent them from getting stuck face-to-face.
