Zombie on pressure plate, kill it?

Is it possible to kill a Zombie when they walk over a stone pressure plate? If so. How?
Im thinking about 15 min now, but I cant find an solution. Anyone?

 

From what I understand, LivingEntities that are not Players do not throw EntityMoveEvent. However, what you can try to achieve is listening to BlockRedstoneEvent and get the block and possibly the entities nearby the block location and if it happens to be a zombie, kill it .

 

Code:java

        Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncRepeatingTask(this, new Runnable(){
            public void run(){
                for(World w : Bukkit.getWorlds()) for(Entity e : w.getEntities()){
                    if(e instanceof Zombie){
                        final Zombie z = (Zombie) e;
                        if(z.getLocation().getBlock() != null && z.getLocation().getBlock().getType() == Material.STONE_PLATE){
                            z.remove();
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }, 0L, 1L);

 

I tried EntityInteractEvent, but didnt came to a solution. Is it possible with EntityInteractEvent?

Thats fast! Ill test it. But i asume it works Thanks!

Not sure.

That's extremely slow actually, and will put a huge load on any reasonably sized server.

 

Well that method works and I'm not 100% sure that EntityInteractEvent will trigger from physical interactions; but it's worth a shot.

Your best bet would definitely be the BlockRedstoneEvent, and then checking if the changing block is under a pressure plate, and then checking if it's a Zombie.
