Some translucent parts of entities make translucent blocks, block entities and some entities invisible (depending on loading order)

The bug

These entities/blocks are not rendered behind translucent parts of some entities (later they will be referred as affected entities)

  • Translucent blocks (stained glass, slime blocks, ice)
  • Block entities (chests, signs, mob heads...)
  • All entities that are loaded after the affected entity (usually those that were spawned or have entered the chunk after the affected entity, or are in farther chunks)

Affected entities

Note: in following screenshots all entities are inside one chunk, the order of summoning them (or entering the chunk in case of a player) is

  1. armor_stand with diamond_helmet
  2. affected entity
  3. armor_stand with golden_helmet

Only armor_stand with golden_helmet behind affected entity shows the issue.
