if you do if type of event-projectile is snowball it works fine

I imagine this is indicative of other entity comparison issues? We should investigate further.

Will note that we do have the relatedEntity set up properly for the snowball item alias here so this shouldn't be due to the alias overlapping.

Similar thing with looped items;

loop all dropped items:
    if item of loop-entity is a gold ingot:
        if name of item of loop-entity contains "Gold":

that is the only way to get information of the entity itself, not just 'dropped item'. It's a bit confusing.

I can reproduce this.
With type of event-projectile it works fine.

Closing this in favour of #2637
There are many issues on the tracker all stemming from this one big issue, so I wanted to condense this into one larger issue.
