Entity sinks into ground on spawn

I am trying to spawn a chicken using loc.getWorld().spawnEntity(loc, EntityType.CHICKEN)

But every time the chicken sinks into the floor, making it impossible to hit until either the player reconnects or teleports far away and back again. (The fire particles are a temporary way to keep track of the chicken)


Is there anyway to fix this? I've tried several (pretty retarded) ways such as teleporting the chicken far away and back again, as well as calling a CreatureSpawnEvent.

 

You can try to set the location y one more, than it will spawn 1 block above the ground and probably wont sink into the ground.

 

blackwolf12333 I tried that too, he just floats innocently down and through the floor :C

 

Anyone know a way of getting around this really annoying bug?

 

That bug seems funny to play around with..Haha imagine a player his face when his entire cow farm sinks into the ground..

 

Its caused by bad connection with the server, it tends to happen with other players too (very funny).
Also slabs sometimes seem to trigger this too.
