Created Issue:
Grass path blocks and farmland don't make shadows
It's like they were glass blocks, letting all the light go through them

@Michele No, it doesn't: MC-166840
In 20w10a they seem to make shadows now, but they're still missing ambient occlusion.
Might wanna change the title to something like "Grass path blocks, soul sand and farmland don't make or have ambient occlusion" Since the bug is "half-fixed"
In my testing soul sand still doesn't make shadows, how is it that in yours it does?
edit: None of the blocks in the picture make visible shadows for me, they do reduce the light level to 13 though.
edit 2: it seems like ambient occlusion isn't affected by the brightness setting in the video settings menu, but shadows are, meaning that while ambient occlusion will be the same with different brightness settings, shadows will not, not sure if this is intended or not.
