Bug Arrows Bouncing Off Mobs

An arrow that is shot at a just-spawned mob may bounce off and inflict no damage. This can happen to mobs who are too far away, are flying (Such as Ghasts), and mobs that are on fire or taking damage at the time the arrow hits. To reproduce this, go to where a ghast is and fire an arrow at it. It will simply bounce off with no damage inflicted and a wasted arrow. This unfortunately causes some problems when in a party, Rangers and bow users become obsolete because the arrows will not do any damage when other players are harming the mob. This may happen with players too, But I have not tested that. This is a known bug in Minecraft, but may be fixable with custom plugins, or similar mods.
