Yep. I had one chasing me around in broad daylight earlier. To double-check I did a test in a new world where I wouldn't mind wasting time. Built a little house, let a whole bunch spawn, and then waited until noon. They did not care about the sun.

When I started playing the game about a week ago, the drifters crowding around my house at night would quickly disperse and then disappear when the sun came up. Since the 1.16 update they have just continued to loiter and I have to sprint out the door and lure them away to get rid of them. According to the Wiki, they are supposed to flee from the player in sunlight, but I know many parts of the Wiki are out of date. Was this an intentional change in the update, or is this a bug? Would love to have the old functionality back.
