Class EntityNavigationHoverComponent

Example: navigationHover.js

// This component is used by entities that can hover/fly like bees and ghasts

    const bee = overworld.spawnEntity("minecraft:bee", { x: 0, y: 64, z: 0 });

    // Get the navigation.hover component
    const navigationHover = bee.getComponent("minecraft:navigation.hover");

        console.log(`Can path over water: ${navigationHover.canPathOverWater}`);
        console.log(`Can path over lava: ${navigationHover.canPathOverLava}`);

    } else {

        world.sendMessage("Could not access bee hover navigation component");
