The distance of zombies and their variants attacking turtle egg is less than java edition

In bedrock edition, zombies and their variants want to stomp the turtle egg. The horizontal range is 10 and vertical height is 2.

However, in java edition, the range of detection is a 47×7×47‌ box centered on the block the mob is standing on.

Note:

This code had been changed after 1.15, so it's not a valid bug

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Place a zombie

  2. Place a turtle egg 23 blocks away

Observed Results:
Zombie can't stomp the turtle egg

Expected Results:

Zombie stomp the egg like Java edition.

Seems a parity issue before Java Edition 1.15 / Bedrock Edition 1.14.0. May be invalid.

Turtle Egg was added in Java Edition 1.13 and Bedrock Edition 1.5.0. Also, zombies and their variants can attack turtle egg since Java Edition 1.13 and Bedrock Edition 1.5.0. This is not 1.15 change.

Can confirm, although, this may still not be a valid parity issue, as the earliest known format used for Zombies (going off what's publically available) appears to be 1.13, which was later updated directly to 1.16 at some point. The 10-block range appears to have been present since at least 2021.

I'll add my own reproduction steps for extra clarity.
Steps to reproduce:

  1. Build a 12-block long platform.

  2. Place a turtle egg on one of the edge blocks.

  3. Spawn a zombie on block 10 (from where you placed the egg).

  4. Spawn another zombie on block 11.

  5. Repeat the process on Java, but increase the block range to 23-24.

Observed results:
Zombies on bedrock only have a 10-block range in which they will pathfind to turtle eggs.

Expected results:
The range in which zombies can pathfind to turtle eggs should be consistent, like on Java.

You can also simply confirm this by looking at and comparing the games' different zombie.json files.

Thank you for your report!
