Can't jump onto land from water or climb up stairs in Old-type worlds

I can't jump onto land from the water, and if I go underwater, the game lags for a moment. Sometimes I am able to jump out of the water onto land, however, I’ve forgotten how I did that.

Can Confirm on an old-sized world the corners of my world I find I literally cannot jump from water to land but a few blocks over, I can.

Confirmed in 1.9.0 on Windows 10.
In an Old-type world, you cannot jump out of water 1 block deep onto a block that is in a chunk along the southern or eastern edge of the world. The problem does not occur in other chunks, including those on the western or northern edges.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open the attached world MCPE-42058 demo.mcworld.

  2. Go to coordinates -40, 62, 111 facing south. This is in water, just outside a chunk on the southern edge of the world.

  3. Try to jump out of the water onto the block at -40, 62, 112. You do not succeed.

  4. Turn right, facing east.

  5. Try to jump out of the water onto the block at -41, 62, 111. You succeed.

  6. Go to coordinates 159, 62, -126 facing east. This is in water, just outside a chunk on the eastern edge of the world.

  7. Try to jump out of the water onto the block at 160, 62, -126. You do not succeed.

  8. Turn left, facing north.

  9. Try to jump out of the water onto the block at 159, 62, -127. You succeed.

This issue also prevents autojump from working, and it also applies to climbing stairs.

I have this same issue. the only way i've found to get out is to get to the surface, dig onto land turn around and block the water behind me and then jump. 

I encountered the same problem in Minecraft for Windows 10

In Old World, 2 connected edges have an area of 16 blocks  width where my footsteps will be silent. In this "silent" area I cannot jump out of water. But when I change the world to infinite, those area became normal.

I found that I can't get out of the water around the chunks that bordered the edge of the world. if I am in the middle of the map I can get out of the water just fine, but the minute that I step into the chunks that border the edge of the world, I can no longer get out. Can confirm this is still an issue. 1.17.30 on Xbox and windows.

Can confirm that this is still a bug in Minecraft 1.17.40 (tested on xbox).

I'm assuming that with the advent of old-style worlds being depreciated in future updates (as seen in 1.18.0.22 beta released today) that this bug will likely never be fixed? 

I'd agree that that seems likely, but we haven't been and probably won't have an official statement about it until the option is removed—if then. On the other hand, Mojang will continue supporting Old worlds officially, and the code that's causing the problem will therefore still be executing, so a fix will still be technically possible.

Thank you for your report!
After consideration, the issue is being closed as Won't Fix.

Please note that this is not the same as Working as Intended, as this bug report correctly describes behavior in the game that might not be the intended or desirable behavior, but it will not be fixed right now. Sometimes, this is because the issue reported is minor and/or impossible to change without large architectural changes to the code base.
