Can you give me the seed of this world?
Confirmed for 1.9.
Confirmed for 1.9 release. It happens not only on LAN, but in any server too. When someone with horse goes far away from another player, after coming back the rider will be invisible. This is critical bug, it gives me very big advantage against my enemies π
But that doesn't mean it's impossible. I already said, that I made a resource pack, that fixes Lithuanian language letters and it actually looks good. This is very possible with other languages' letters too.
There are multiple languages in Minecraft: Story Mode. I tried to launch the game with Russian and Chinese languages and the game had bold letters (in normal Minecraft they aren't bold).
Maybe it does work as intended, but if you'd try to play in Lithuanian (or another language that has this problem) and keep Force Unicode: OFF, you'd:
1. Change language back to English.
2. Set Force Unicode to ON and lose original font that we all know and love.
3. Play normaly because you don't read any text.
It just looks unprofessional and ugly. Players expect every letter to be bold, not just the ones at ascii.png.
Also, the character "ΕΎ" looks normal, because it's in ascii.png, but if you'd try "Ε½", it'd be thin.
I think it's fixed, because I get potatoes when creeper explodes in 14w30c.
Confirmed in 14w30c.
Not only for leaves, but for stained glass panes and slime blocks too.
Other players don't see burning effect. Tested on LAN.

Fixed in 14w06b?
Confirmed in 14w06b. By the way you don't burn while on fire (only in lava).

I was having this problem on Abstract GUI but it appears that Transparent GUI pack has this problem too.
