Expected Behavior

Hostile mobs will stop when it recognizes there is lava between you and it.

Actual Behavior

Hostile mobs ignore when there is lava in its path to its target and walk right into it to try to get to you.

Reproduction Steps

Make any set up where there is one path between you and a hostile mob (like a zombie) and place lava either in the ground or over the ground.
Make sure you're in survival and see its behavior.

Which version of lithium and which other mods are installed on the server? I cannot reproduce this one the dev branch

This was on 0.6.4. I tried it with just fabric api and lithium and the problem still occurs. Going to see if 0.6.5 has this issue -edit: occurs in 0.6.5 as well.
imgur of the setup (just screenshots but I spawned them past the lava): https://imgur.com/a/LuHnaRt
Fabric api version 0.33.0
lithium 0.6.4 or 0.6.5

Did you place the lava after the monsters started attacking you?

Nope, I spawned them after the lava setup was already in place. Here's an actual vid: https://imgur.com/a/UGepATX
Excuse the weird crop, didn't realize my obs display wasn't centered.
Also, tried taking out lithium and trying fabric api only and the problem doesn't occur

Can reproduce it now, put myself in a cave and they just walk into the lava

This should be fixed in https://github.com/CaffeineMC/lithium-fabric/actions/runs/921538847

Fixed in Lithium 0.6.6. Thanks for the good report and the extra explanatory screenshots
