| Description |
|
When throwing snowballs towards another player from close range, the snowball "bounces" off of the target player and back onto the original player, instead of hitting the target player. If this is intentional, the same applies when the shooter is close to the player but facing a different direction. The snowball still does damage to the shooter, despite nothing being in visible path of the shooter. |

The fix for this is in Vanilla & Vanilla behaviour and for better or worse we do not change Vanilla behaviour where possible because it will just make someone else file a bug report to the reverse effect |

The fix for this causes unexpected functionality with Potions, Splash potions are intended to hit the player, especially in a PvP context. When running a player would commonly splash a potion on their own back to get a full heal value from it. As a result of this change made, that is now actually impossible.
Edit: The way 1.7 did this, which for some reason was removed in 1.8+ was to check the variable 'az' is >= 5. In 1.12.2, this variable is 'at'. |
