Unable to escape block bound box when you have levitation and holding shift
In 1.16.2 when you have levitation and are shifting you are unable to float off the block you are on. This is possible in 1.15.2 and you are able to walk off it but not in 1.16.2
Recreation
- Open 1.16.2 go into a world with cheats enabled.
- Then find a drop of a few blocks
- Place a block above you head
- Give yourself levitation `effect give @s levitation 100`
- Hold down shift and try to float off the block.

Before 20w27a, you were able to jump out of 2 block high spaces while sneaking. But due to the fix of MC-2404 this has led to a case where this is no longer possible. The behavior now seems to be like if sneaking applies an "invisible barrier" on you that has some side-effects with knockback resistance or status effects (See MC-200282 & MC-199326), which in this case is jumping.
While it doesn't seem to be a very noticeable issue at first, it gets very problematic to walk through narrow places such as diagonal stairs or underground caves in situations where remaining sneaky was critical, such as PvP on servers or when trying to avoid sculk sensors in deep dark / ancient cities.
How to reproduce:
- Create a void world.
- Place a block under and above you (see attachment).
- Try to get out while sneaking and jumping at the same time.
You can't.
Hmm, now that i think of this, is it really intended and not a side-effect of fixing MC-2404? After some hours of gameplay i noticed this behavior so many times when exploring caves and sometimes it gets really annoying, i'd rather like to have a proper dev response about this. Also, it's almost the same issue as MC-199326 which got marked as Community Consensus.
This was caused by the fix of
