Skeletons arms are too far apart from each other

I've noticed that the skeletons try to point their bow at you. Sometimes I see them point at my feet or arm.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Cleaning up all the old issues - please reply if this affects 0.9.3.

This should be marked as WAI

And this also affect 1.10 and the latest beta.

And I don't think this is a java parity request. This was a feature in the game in 0.14.0 but in 0.15.0 a bug happened and changed back the arm position.

@@unknown no, that is 1.4 or 1.3 java edition.

Algunas cosas como los cofres son invisibles por favor arreglen eso

Hope this will be fixed in the next update.

The right animation.png and wrong animation.png shows the opposite of each other which is wrong and should be the right animation.png the wrong and wrong animation.png the right. On the 3rd picture, the stray has the right arm position but skeleton not.

It happens on 1.16.0.63 skeleton don’t take bow correctly

i hope they'll fix it for the next update please 

@unknown: Please do not comment unless you have new information to add to the ticket.

Affects on 1.16.0.64 and i bet on 1.16.0.65 (66,67,68,69,70) also in the final version

Affects 1.16.0.66

Affects 1.16.0.67

Affects 1.16.0.68 😭😭

confirmed for 1.16.0

affects 1.16.20.50

Skeletons should have this attacking animation according to minecraft java edition

Affects 1.16.1

still happening in 1.16.1

An easy, albeit imperfect fix for this is hilariously simple: in skeleton.entity.json, move line 58 ("skeleton_attack" in animation controllers) up above line 55 ("bow_and_arrow"). This fixes the bow aiming animation to match strays' without breaking the melee attack animation.

Thats related to a different parity

Affects 1.16.210.60
