Skeletons don't die in daylight in Beta 1.2.5.13
Comments 16
There is always a delay of up to a day between a new release and the time it shows up in the dropdown list of affected versions. Don't mind Arisa – it's a bot and doesn't know how to allow for such things. But in the future you can avoid the automated scolding by choosing the latest release in the list, then starting your comment with the actual release you were using.
Skeletons only burn in daylight if they are exposed to skylight (no obstructing blocks directly above them all the way to the sky). When bright sunlight hits them, they actively seek shade under a tree, roof, or terrain, and will stop burning if they reach it in time. When it's raining, they don't even need to find shade because the sunlight isn't bright enough to damage them. Does this explain what you're seeing, or are you actually seeing skeletons in the noonday sun that aren't burning?
