Can also confirm. Plus in my realms nether hub they are able to spawn on lower half slabs

Windows 10- Same here. I've seen more than one ghast spawn in places they suffocate.

I can also confirm ghasts are spawning everywhere. Seen them spawn, and stuck in 2 by 2 and 3 by 3 areas in nether fortresses and our nether hub.

Here's three at once but there were several flying around too

if I stay in te Nether for a few minutes, I reliably have at least 8 ghasts all attacking me. It's impossible to do anything😉 Also I see many stuck in spaces within or half within netherrack and structures.
This continues to be an issue on 0.16.1.

they are pack spawning. there are literally 12 or more in any given area. as soon as you kill a few, a few more spawn in there place almost immediately. unless you're tunneling through netherrack at all times it's near impossible to traverse the nether at this point.

This still happens in 0.16.2

It's listed as fixed for 0.17.0 aka 1.0
Currently affects 1.0 Beta Build 3.
Not to often, but every now and then ghasts apparently spawn and immediately suffocate to death.
Affects 1.0.0.1
Now affects 1.0.0.2
Affects 1.0.0.7.
Is this planned to be fixed for the final release of 1.0, or for a future release?
Affecting 1.0.0 (don't know if the iOS update of 1.0.1 still has this).
Is this fixed in 1.0.2?
Affecting 1.0.3.0.
Affects 1.0.3.
Affects 1.0.4.0.
Is this still in effect for 1.0.4.1?

Seems to be affecting just Android devices, I have three iOS devices and I didn't have this on any of them

Or are they affecting other platforms?
Nevermind, fixed as of 1.0.4.1.
