Redirected projectiles can be picked up by players, even when shot by a mob
Projectiles that can't be picked up when shot by entities can be picked up after being redirected by a Player. For example, this applies to arrows shot by skeletons and tridents thrown by drowned.
To reproduce
Requires the attached data pack (Redirect Every Projectile.zip
).
- Summon a skeleton and have it attack you
- Deflect an arrow shot by the skeleton in Survival mode
- Walk to it to pick it up
Expected behaviour
You cannot pick up the arrow, since it has been shot by a skeleton
Observed behaviour
The arrow is picked up and is added to the player's inventory.
