Check if player is touching iron bars

Hey, I'm writing a plugin for a my server that hurts players if they touch the iron bars block with their body. Is there any way I can do this?

 

You could use onPlayerMove. Then get the player and check for the block the player is standing in. As iron bars are thin but you can walk into their block space you should be able to get the block they are standing in.

 

You can also use PlayerInteractEvent

How would I do this?

 

Something like this. Its untested so don't rely on it.

PHP:

public void onPlayerMove(PlayerMoveEvent e){
    if(e.getTo().getBlock().getType() == Material.IRON_FENCE){
        e.getPlayer().damage(1);
    }
}

 

I know how to do that, and it only works if your legs are touching it, not your entire body. I tried a few other ways of checking but none of them worked, so do you know a way that I could do this?

 

Add 1 to the Z position of the player and check the block there too.

 

no, thats wrong, you need to add 1 to the Y postion
