Before version 1.19, some mobs including Iron Golems and Ravagers had an attack range exceeding 1 block. However, in later versions (e.g., 1.21.10), the attack range of these mobs appears to be reduced to only 1 block, which is a bug.
Additionally, due to this bug-induced shortened attack range, when a Ravager in version 1.21.10 approaches the attack range it had in version 1.19 (attempting to attack the player), it incorrectly registers a successful hit (even though no hit actually occurs). At this point, if the player steps back slightly, the Ravager will stop moving completely.
This is clearly a bug, and similar abnormal attack range issues are present in other mobs as well
The bug of abnormal attack range in the new version is shown by comparison in the picture.
