Minecraft Dungeons bug/mobs not attacking player

I have reported this under Minecraft Bedrock because the Dungeons tracker was closed but this really is A CRITICAL BUG ALERT. Sorry for inconvenience.

If you stand directly in front of a mob, and attack it, it will actually act as if the player isn't there, using its idle animation, not attacking back to the player. This just ends up allowing the player to take endless free hits until the mob dies. This may not seem like a big deal, but because in Dungeons you kind of just throw yourself everywhere to kill mobs, you actually can find yourself in front of a mob pretty often. Additionally, because when you use an (meele) attack, you move forward a little amount, this can quickly escalate from standing in front to standing DIRECTLY in front, which is when the bug occurs, allowing you to taking endless free hits until the mob dies.

I found a reported instance of this bug by Losyash1K on the actual Dungeons bug tracker. Losyash1K reported it as only applying to Redstone Golems, but after some testing, I found it actually seems to apply to all mobs, including bosses.*

I know that Mojang isn't sending out bug fixes for Dungeons anymore, but please can you guys consider sending out a fix anyway? I've been experiencing this bug too much to make it ignorable, and I imagine others have been too. It totally undermines the system and the Minecraft Dungeons experience!

*On some parts this is an assumption as I can't get close enough to some mobs (such as Creepers or high-level bosses) for obvious reasons.

@unknown are you a Mojang employee or do you just work on the website? If not, can I request this report be passed onto a real employee/developer of Mojang?
