I GUESS it makes sense for the base texture, but then where do the protrusions go. I hope this is a bug because otherwise, what was the point of adding these? Their main draw is aesthetic so removing those aesthetics basically removes the mob.
Steps to reproduce the issue
summon a coral zombie nautilus
equip it with any nautilus armor
Expected result
The coral texture would remain intact, or at least the protrusions
Actual result
All the coral disappears and it becomes indistinguishable from a regular zombie nautilus
