Players are being un-afked by being bumped into by mobs

[Acuilaa]

Since our update to 1.21.10, when mobs bump into players (zombies, phantoms) they get pushed out of AFK and the the player model is slightly being moved before being pushed back to its original spot but if the knockback is too hard the AFK stops

When we were on 1.21.8 this issue did not happen and the player model also didnt move when being bumped into at all.
I was working with MovementMagnitude to see if I could prevent it but putting it too high causes the player to be able to move without un-afking.

Any idea? Maybe something has changed in the MC or Paper code?
I did not make any config changes since the version update.

Interesting, I wouldn’t have expected a minor update to do that. Let me dig into that and see what I can do. In the meantime a temporary fix might be enabling the "MobTargeting" protection. This will stop mobs from targeting AFK players which should reduce the chances of a mob walking into a player.

Are you using AFKNoBump or AFKPrefix?

In the regular AFK+ config I have Bump: true as well as AFKPrefix with ShouldCollide: false

Hey there. Recently AFKPlusPrefix has been rewritten to move away from using scoreboards and to use Vault API instead. This means it can't stop bumps anymore. So the options are:

• use LapisTab in place of AFKPlusPrefix to allow AFK players to have prefixes and also no collision thanks to Scoreboard rules
• use AFKPlus by itself with the MobTargeting protection enabled to stop mobs being drawn to players
• modify the AFKPlus detection settings to attempt to allow mobs to bump players without removing them from AFK as you have tried before

I've personally gone the route of LapisTab and AFKPlus since I didn't have a plugin handling my tab list to start with. Unfortunately the only way to do proper bump protection is with the scoreboard, which interferes with any other plugins that also use the scoreboard.
