Arrows drop when bouncing off player at certain angle

The bug

When an arrow bounces off of you because you are in Creative mode or blocking with a shield, the arrow drops as item instead of landing on the ground. This applies only to arrows a survival player can normally collect.

How to reproduce

Have the following command running on a slow clock and be in Creative mode or block with a shield

/execute at @p run summon arrow ~7.1 ~2.1 ~ {Motion:[-1d,0.155d,0d],pickup:1b}

The reason

The following is based on a decompiled version of Minecraft 1.10 using MCP 9.30.

The method net.minecraft.entity.projectile.EntityArrow.onHit(RayTraceResult) is responsible for that. This behaviour is probably intended.

Can confirm in 20w48a.

Can confirm in 21w05a. Either duplicates or relates to MC-162551.

Can you still replicate this issue? I cannot seem to reproduce this in 1.20.3 RC 1 following the provided steps. While the arrow has a bit of unusual behavior floating above the player, it never drops as an item but instead lands on the ground as expected.

My attempt at recreating the issue:

Yeah this issue is no longer present and likely hasn’t been for some time.
