Does anyone have any tricks or tips to keep tamed animals from phasing into blocks in their attempts to return to their spawn point? Preferably tricks that keep the animals from trying to return to their spawn points in general.

I always end up with a group of my animals cramming into the same corner of my pen basically unwilling to go anywhere else, and they often end up partway phasing into blocks in the process, which also makes harvesting wool or whatever rather challenging, and then I end up having to mine the blocks they are trapped in, which hurts them and makes them run around for a bit, but then a day or two later they're right back in that corner.

I don't even feel guilty wacking them anymore because I've had to do it so much. One time, one my sheep had their AI so broken I had to repeatedly punch the sheep and use the slight knockback to get them to move out of the spot where they were stuck so I could put my wall back up that I had mined away to free them from their self-imposed prison because even with the block mined they didn't seem to want to move at all anymore, even with with punches. And of course a day later they decided they liked moving again and they went back into their corner.

At least they don't phase outside of my pen and get free anymore ever since I exchanged the bottom two layers for solid blocks, but they still phase into and get stuck inside the solid blocks.

I'm sure the Hytale devs will eventually fix this, but if anyone knows of a way I can design things so that they don't get stuck in solid blocks and/or trick their AI into being okay with wandering around like normal, that'd be super helpful.
