[MC-47217] Attribute follow range don't work in multiplayer

I am creating a map that relies very much on the attribute follow range. I am trying to add follow range 300 on a zombie but when the zombie gets spawned he doesnt follow me until i get really close. I have not tested this on other mobs or in other versions. But I hope you can fix it as soon as possible!

Please provide the exact command you've used.

It doesn't work whatever i do but ok here is the last one i used:

summon Zombie 332 56 807 {Attributes:[{Name:generic.maxHealth,Base:10},{Name:generic.followRange,Base:300},{Name:generic.knockbackResistance,Base:10}]}

I used a summon command generator but the knockback resistanse worked.

Cannot confirm.
Zombies with followRange:300 walk towards a village ~250 blocks away.
Keep in mind that mobs despawn immideately if more than 128 blocks away, read on here: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Spawn#Despawning

I just tested and YOUR RIGHT. BUT that means that the follow range don't work on players! So apperantly THAT is the bug.

Because it is supposed to work on players to. And YES i was in survival and tested in adventure as well.

Also unable to reproduce.

Sure does that attribute work.
Spawn a Zombie with followRange:3 and stand 4 blocks away - he won't bother you, see screenshot (the adult, not the baby...)
Command used:

summon Zombie ~5 ~ ~ {Attributes:[{Name:generic.maxHealth,Base:10},{Name:generic.followRange,Base:3},{Name:generic.knockbackResistance,Base:10}]}

That is wierd because i tested to put a villager the exact same place i was standing, and they followed the villager. But when i tried they just stood there they spawned. And yes they did not despawn.

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-02T22:06:30Z

Yes Kumasasa that command worked as you said. So it is apperanetly when they are away from you. And btw i am on a server if that matters. And i am using localhost so no lag either.

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-02T22:09:56Z

Ok just tested and: The zombie followed me in singleplayer but not in multiplayer. So it is a server bug. It works with villagers but not players on servers. It is not modded or with bukkit either.

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-02T22:18:35Z

Sorry to bother you with this, but I really want to get this bug fixed as fast as possible. (If it even is a bug)

kumasasa 2014-02-02T22:24:15Z

Reopened with modified summary.

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-03T15:56:22Z

Wait a minute. Are they supposed to find you if they don't see you? Like if you are behind a wall? Because i found out that they walked against me when they saw me, but not when they did not see men. But however they walked against the villager when they did not see them so I don't know.

kumasasa 2014-02-03T20:19:23Z

Mobs cannot see through walls. Does that explain your issue ?

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-04T14:45:30Z

Yes that explains almost everything. Are they supposed to see villagers through walls? Because when i put a villager there, they walked against it instant.

kumasasa 2014-02-04T19:38:39Z

The AI is of course cheating. Zombies can see villagers through walls. You will observe that Zombies "knock" in villages more at that houses inhabited by villagers...

Jann Skinderviken 2014-02-04T21:33:19Z

Ok then there will proberly be no way of them moving against me. Ok thanks anyway. Case closed.
