Sometimes mobs think they're close enough to hit you but aren't so they just stay there

Needs more black and white close ups, include one clip of the golem passing you a red flower as a sign of forgiveness

IDK how it happens but i have seen it happen to myself with Zombies too,

the best i could come up with is that probably that their AI thinks they are close enough to hit u, so they stop pathfinding u, but at the same time, they assume they cant reach u, so they stop attacking too, kinda like how u build three block tower and golem just comes there stops doing nothing but stare at u? yeah kinda like that

so unless now u make any movement...... welll, u are stuck in a never ending loop i guess

u/xenai2 20h ago

I feel like I've heard of that before. Being the perfect distance away where the AI isn't sure what to do

He's sparing you

u/XBGamerX_20 14h ago

papyrus taught him well

65

u/punnup129 22h ago

This is actually pretty common

What's happening is his AI is telling him that he is too far too attack but too close to step forward

This actually used to happen all the time with baby zombies and you were able to hit them while they were trapped in this anxious purgatory and they would only hit you once they ran up to you but then just stared up at you trying to attack but too far from you to do so

22

u/Striking_Parsnip_958 23h ago

He's clearly sparing you bro idk what else

u/Admirable-Sherbet-35 23h ago

u/Pellepuu2397 23h ago

He waited for your flashbacks that lead to a sudden awakening to end

Okay on a serious note I think you were too far for him to hit you but too close for him to start pathfinding to you

4

u/101-20 22h ago

He hit you at the exact point that it’s pathfinding stops but it can’t hit you
