Baby bees pathfind into campfires below their hive instead of directly into the hive
Baby bees pathfind into the campfires below their hive, and don't pathfind away from the fire when they take damage, and die instead of re-entering beehives. This only happened when the nest was against a wall, not sure if it is the same for beehives not against walls, or for bees nests.

Also affects adult bees if they pathfind above them, causing them to take damage.
My hives and nests are not against a wall, they hang from a fence post with a block gap between the bottom of the hive and the fire yet both adult and baby bee's pathfind into the fire and die consistently
I grabbed a nest of Bees using my silk touch. Brought them over to a couple empty hives I had and placed them. I started breeding them which seemed to work. Nut they have been slowly disappearing. They do not appear to anger mobs. So it cant be mobs.
I did notice that the fire I placed under them; they seemed to fly into(which is a logic problem in itself) and hurting themselves. So I took out the camp fires. Tried to keep breeding them... but they still disappeared.
What else could they be getting damaged from? Are they flying into water and drowning? Try to thing of things you have not programed into their logic.
Thank you.
Yeah, there's a seperate ticket about bees not avoiding water, see
MC-159502. And they don't drown, the automatically take damage when bees touch water, see alsoMC-167148.Cannot reproduce
Is this still an issue?
