About a year ago, I was playing with my younger kids watching. I had a home base above an extensive cave system that featured a ladder up a large stalactite as the main way in and out, as I figured that was plenty safe from mobs.
Was messing with something in the cave system, picked up a creeper on the way back, and dashed back to the ladder and started climbing out. Looked back down and the creeper was climbing the ladder after me! I'd never seen any mobs use ladders before! So I'm making these panicked shrieks in between laughing at my potential demise, the kids are cracking up, and I eventually get to the top and close a door behind me - but that panicked, giddy rush still sticks with me!
(I never looked into it - how long have creepers been able to climb ladders? And can most mobs do that now, or just them?)
Just looked it up and apparently enemy mobs have been able to climb ladders for over 10 years, but their AI pathing doesn't try to go up ladders so its uncommon.
I never knew they could either
It's been in there quite a while, I always have my ladders missing the bottom-most block so that they can't climb them. You jump onto the ladder and since mobs can't jump they can't follow you.
