Spiders have a strange behavior

Spiders seem to be bugged in latest snapshots. They turn on themselves in the water (when they don't focus on you), sometimes don't attack you, can teleport to you...

A spider that turn on itself... Also, we can see that it doesn't focus on me

For spiders climbing on soulsand, they've always been able to do that. Always. Their so-called inability to do that is an urban legend.

I've been trying to build a system that detects the player using spiders. However, the spider refuses to try to track towards me unless provoked (by punching) or standing virtually in them (even when the rooms completely dark). And even when provoked, the tracking is limited at best.

The system I've been using comes from a Youtuber (Red3yz), so I asked him if I did something wrong, or that it had something to do with one of the recent changes. He loaded his working system in the latest snapshots and confirmed it indeed stopped working.

I then verified it myself aswell by loading the system in 1.7.2 and there the spiders starts following me immediately. In 14w06b? The spider just stares at me occasionally.

Probable cause are the AI changes a few weeks back.

Yes, I think the new AI has something to do with it... There is still much to do!
