i have this issue on my server, if netherite tools or armor are dropped into lava and there is soul sand at the bottom, they wont float back to the top. My server is java edition 1.16.1

i have done some testing, and i dont think it did burn in lava, in a creative mode on the server i tested it and the pick didnt burn, but it somehow got stuck on the soul sand under the lava and would not float up to the surface

there was no explosion. from what i understand, bedrock is also having some issues with this. i am unsure whether it is because i am on a server, although no one else was online other than me, so the chunks were not loaded. i tried it in single player and did not have this issue. only on the multiplayer server

I died in the nether, respawned at my base and went back straight away. It was a max of 2 minutes, but most of that time, the chunks i died in were unloaded.
