Steps to Reproduce:
In creative mode, get any sword and any spear
Find or summon a mob
Hold your sword and stand at the edge of your attack reach, right before the attack indicator disappears
Swap to the spear
Try to attack the mob
Observed Results:
The spear has less reach than the sword in creative mode.
Expected Results:
The spear’s reach is longer, or at least the same than the sword in creative mode.
Notes:
Original Description:
When doing a jab attack with the spear, the maximum reach is a little bit lower than when using swords. That contradicts the statement said in the snapshot article (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-25w41a): (Spear Weapon) Has extended maximum reach compared to other tools and weapons.
This seems to be the result of the
min_reach
andmax_reach
fields for thekinetic_weapon
component overriding the creative mode attack range buff (and generally, any deviation from the defaultentity_interaction_distance
attribute). I wonder what the best way to structure a fix for this is…
