NoFall issue

[CDWimmer]

Apologies if this is poorly formatted/worded, am half asleep.
Was playing on a vanilla server, I took random damage upon contact with water, as though all the 1 or two block falls I had culminated until touching water.

What happens?

At some point activated NoFall, and then disabling it again did not fix the issue. I deduced that it was possibly caused due to all of the falls I went through adding up and did not dissipate on contact with the ground, until I touched water, which meant that walking down a mountain (even with NoFall off) then touching water, suddenly hit me with all of the drops I went through while climbing down, e.g. a bunch of 1 block drops at various intervals killed me the moment I walked to the water's edge.

Server reported I died due to falling to my death.

A friend's theory on this is as follows;

i think it was maybe a bug with the game not understanding your player state
you were somehow in a state where touching the ground while in the falling state was not triggering fall damage

When does this happen?

On contact with water, after or while using NoFall
Stopped after an extended period of time and toggling NoFall settings around and switching it off and on and off again a bunch of times.

Exact steps to reproduce?

On a vanilla server, using then disabling NoFall, other than that steps unknown, have not yet managed to make it happen again, haven't had time yet (will update if I do), toggling NoFall a few times and changing its settings is all I did.

• If it is occurring, can verify that it is indeed a culmination of fall damage by getting to a water's edge
• Get a bed or something else to set spawn there
• Touch the water to reset fall damage (bed is there to respawn at the waterfront if this kills you)
• Walk up to the water, then go jump up and down a 1 block edge a couple of times, then touch the water again.
• If the bug is occurring, you'll take damage as though you've just fallen the same distance as all the times you fell off the 1 block added together. (Unsure if jump on the spot adds to this, would make sense though)
• Further, whilst this was happening while NoFall was off, I remained unable to take fall damage from normal drops that would have killed me or caused damage. As though NoFall was still on.

is there antihunger enabled??

[positiivne]

What @Thunder33345 said, AntiHunger could be the issue. If you have it enabled, disable it.

Jesus could also cause issues, it is important to include ALL of the mods that you had enabled.

Not setting a milestone until a full list of mods that were active when the death occurred is provided.

These kind of issues are hard (nearly impossible) to fix because they are a side effect of us lying to the server — in this case telling the server we are/aren't on ground regardless of whether we are.

Although this is a valid bug, I'm closing as Won't Fix for now.
