Unable to interact with pets after restart

I would do the 7 day trial to do this but I don't know anyway to upload it to anything. All I have for a computer is a very old windows 7 laptop that is so slow but I'd be willing to give it a go.

It still occurs but only if Experimental Gameplay is enabled regardless if running on a dedicated server or as local player.

By using an world-editor and reassign the correct player UniqueID and turn off the feature (experimentalgameplay: 0) - all works again as usual.

My pets  is very like yours. (Don't follow the player ,If you attack the dog ,he will fight back)

I tried to trigged this bug again ,it doesn't work in the new world (In 1.14.30),but it always works in my old world (and trun on the EX mode). I want to upload my world ,but it's too big. And I am in China so I can't use OneDrive. I can sent a E-mail for you.

MCPE-64079 is mine.

1.14.30 has this bug ,too.

My world is on OneDrive.

Thank you!

Can this just please be fixed.

Took a look at Yang Kanru's world, and it is set to Experimental Gameplay, and the ~local_player id does not match the OwnerNew id on the pets.

I tried turning on Experimental Gameplay on one of my worlds and it did not change the ~local_player id. So there must be some other event or action that triggers reassigning the ~local_player id.

Hi,[Helper GoldenHelmet]:

This bug is only in some old world ,mine world is created in BE 1.7.1.

Unfortunately, this issue is not resolved. In my world (which was carried over from PS3->PS4->Bedrock) any tamed mobs do not respond to players (in singleplayer or local multiplayer.) They can not be fed or follow commands to sit/stand. This issue does not occur with new mobs and does not occur in the legacy version of my world. My guess is that this issue occurred sometime during after the introduction to bees.

I am encountering the same issue with my world in 1.14

Here is the link for my world http://www.mediafire.com/file/vwifa64jl71leb3/Non_cursed_world.mcworld/file

Like the other worlds shared with this ticket, David Booth's world has experimental gameplay enabled.

The ~local_player UniqueID is -47244640255
The OwnerNew on the wolf by his bed is -17179868558

Interestingly, the world has 2 player_server_... data sets, and the UniqueID for each of these starts with -1717986... just like the ID of the wolf's owner.

Could part of this issue be that when a world is hosted on a server, none of the players are considered the "~local_player"? I just looked at 2 test worlds today (from another ticket) that came from a home server. The save files had no ~local_player, and when I opened the world to examine some things it started me as a new player at world spawn. That may at least explain the related report linked to this ticket, MCPE-51494.

the same issue is happening in my world atm, its up to date w updates however I cannot make dogs/cats stand or sit other than on the day I first tame them. they can be fed, but will not follow me around or allow me to stand them up if sitting or sit them down if standing

In my world the pets still had collers by would not act like I am their owner this happened after I came back into my friends world I also lost my inventory

@@unknown: are you saying that this issue happens repeatedly in your world, like every time you tame a pet then relog? If so, could you share a copy of your world?

@@unknown: it sounds like you experienced MCPE-55815 rather than this bug. Or maybe you experienced both if you are talking about pets in your world and inventory in your friends world.

how do I share the copy of my world to you?

Either a .mcworld export or copying the world save folder itself (if you can figure out which folder it is) is fine. If it's too large to attach here you may put it on a file sharing site like OneDrive, GoogleDrive, etc.

hopefully this works 🙂

I had this happen about 2-3 months ago I keep all of my pets sitting hardly taking them out. I accidentally unseated my parrot and he would not re-sit. I could sit and reseat my other pets even after restarting nothing worked. This is an older world so could be related? Just the other day I again, accidentally unseated my other parrot and I could seat him again.

Also I have never enabled EX gameplay this world is from legacy Minecraft xbox one and transferred over to the Better Together new Minecraft. But It was transferred when the new Minecraft came out.

@@unknown thank you for providing the world. I've confirmed that the ~local_player UniqueID is changing every time the world is closed and reopened. Moreover, it is not random: I tried importing the world twice, and both times the UniqueID changed to the exact same numbers in the following sequence:

The pattern here is that each relog subtracts exactly 4294967296 (=2^32) from the UniqueID. Looking for the source of this number, I found a number called "worldStartCount" in level.dat that always starts at 4294967295 when a world is created and counts down by 1 each time the world is relogged. (I.e. after creating a world and saving & quitting from it, worldStartCount is 4294967294.) This number, 4294967295, is also the maximum value for an 32-bit unsigned integer.

I tried to reproduce what is happening in this world by making a new world with all settings matching (Bonus Chest ON, TNT explodes OFF, and Experimental Gameplay ON), but I could not get the ~local_player UniqueID to change. The only other difference I can't test is that her world has a couple of server players who have connected to it.

What is happening with Lucy Cole's world makes it impossible to own a pet for more than one play session. However, nothing else about the ~local_player is changing--inventory and levels are preserved despite the change in UniqueID.

Will it be fixed or do we have to re-start the game?

Can it be fixed at all?

I’m not sure if this helps but my phone and iPad both don’t let me control my pets so I guess it’s something to do with the account. I play on realm and we can’t tell if anyone else is having problems but I can find out if it will help!
Thanks

I also have the same problem. Except my world is a private non-multiplayer world. The pets used to work fine but after saved it as a file and left it for a few months this problem suddenly came. For me it is permanent no matter how many times I restart the world.

Grzegorz Turkowski: I have removed your comment because this is a Bedrock Edition bug report. Please find or a create a report in the Java project for your issue.

My bedrock world was fine until the recent update in March 2021. Cats and wolves, previously tamed, are now walking around. I cannot feed them, nor get them to follow me, nor does the lead work and they do not respond to the sir command. In addition, one named and tamed cat have disappeared (and a horse also)

Any progress on this issue? The newest update (1.17.10 on July 13, 2021) caused this in my world. I can't ride any tamed horse, make my dog sit or feed it. It is really putting a damper on exploring and I'm not enjoying the game.

Melanie, and James: the bug tracker does not usually get updates from Mojang unless and until they announce a fix. If you could provide a copy of your world or detail anything you did in the play session prior to getting the bug, or between saves, I can pass along the information.
