EntityUnleashEvent is not fired under specific circumstances #13696

@Dessie0

Description

@Dessie0

Expected behavior

When an entity is leashed, and either of the following occurs:

  • A firework rocket is used while flying with an elytra
  • The lead is attached to a boat, and the boat is destroyed

These should fire one (or both) of the following with a respective UnleashReason:
EntityUnleashEvent/PlayerUnleashEntityEvent

Observed/Actual behavior

Performing either of the previous actions while the entity is leashed with a lead will not fire EntityUnleashEvent at all

Steps/models to reproduce

  1. Lead any entity

  2. Launch with firework while using elytra.

  3. Lead a boat

  4. Break said boat.

In neither case does EntityUnleashEvent fire.
