Attacking a mob or player while sprint jumping randomly removes all of the player's momentum, sometimes even teleporting the player backwards

Resolved

On 1.21.60.24 a bug was introduced where when you spam click to attack a mob while you are sprint jumping towards it, you will randomly lose all of your momentum. This creates noticable stuttering that is very annoying to deal with in game.

 

This issue actually seems to have worsened in 1.21.70.20, as instead of losing all momentum while attacking and sprint jumping, the player is almost teleported backwards.

 

This bug was not fixed in the 1.21.62 hotfix or the 1.21.70.25 preview, despite it being stated as fixed in the changelog for both of these, and seems to have worsened even more.

This issue was listed as fixed in the 1.21.90.23 changelog and as of this version I am no longer able to reproduce it, so it appears that it has been finally fixed.

Step to Reproduce:

  1. Spawn any mob

  2. Start sprinting and jumping towards the mob

  3. Spam the attack button/key while sprint jumping towards the mob

Expected Result:
You keep all of your momentum while sprint jumping and attacking the mob

Observed Result:
You will randomly stop and lose all momentum, creating annoying stuttering

I could confirm

This bug was not fixed at all in the 1.21.62 hotfix or the new 1.21.70.25 preview, despite it being stated as fixed in the changelog for both of these

Yes, I can still reproduce the issue. The fix is only partially, and sprint attack is nowhere near what it was before 1.21.60 introduced so many movement issues.

I hope the team considers reverting the server authoritative changes entirely instead of trying to fix every issue brought in by these 1.21.60 update because to be frank, it's simply an impossible quest. Things will get left behind and bugs will remain unfixed.

if this bug is fixed I can start playing PvP again 🙏🏻

Mojang has said it has been fixed, but clearly it hasn’t.
