Getting door as block?

Hey, In my plugin I am blocking pistons from editing blocks that are in protected areas. Well my problem is that doors aren't being recognized as a block.

I tested it and it recognizes stone or other blocks but not doors. Any idea how to make it recognize any block in its path?

Code:

public void onPistonPush(BlockPistonExtendEvent event)
    {
        List<Block> blocks = event.getBlocks();
        for (Block b : blocks)

 

I think you may have left something out of your code...but you can check with something like this

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onPistonPush(BlockPistonExtendEvent event){
    List<Block> block = event.getBlocks;
    for (Block b : blocks){
        if (b != Material.Air){
            //somecode here to stop it
            event.setCancelled(true);
        }
 
    }
 
}

 

Here is the entire event. I left out most of it because I wasn't sure if it was necessary to mention

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void onPistonPush(BlockPistonExtendEvent event)
    {
        List<Block> blocks = event.getBlocks();
        for (Block b : blocks)
        {
            Town source = ProjectUtilities.getEnteredTown(event.getBlock().getLocation());
            Town target = ProjectUtilities.getEnteredTown(b.getLocation());
            if (source != target)
            {
                event.setCancelled(true);
                return;
            }
            if (source != null && target != null)
            {
                TownPlot plotSource = source.getEnteredTownPlot(event.getBlock().getLocation());
                TownPlot plotTarget = source.getEnteredTownPlot(b.getLocation());
               
                if (plotSource != plotTarget)
                {
                    event.setCancelled(true);
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
    }

This blocks people from pushing stone into protected zones but they are able to push doors from the outside inwards.

 

e.getBlock() according to the javadocs gets the block involved in the event (e.g. the block pushed, not the pusher).

 

Jake6177 Oh! Well, any idea why Doors aren't recognized by the event.getBlock() and not included in the event.getBlocks() ?

 

I haven't been doing bukkit long, but after a bit of researching a few ago, I saw that "Door" is a material, not a block. Does that make any difference to you? Sorry I'm still quite new.

 

Very interesting. Thanks for that; gets me a bit closer to the answer but still quite clueless on how to get the Material from that location.

 

e.getBlock().getType() returns a material, try that?
Scratch that, I don't see door there....

AHA. Doors are materials. It would be "Material.WOODEN_DOOR", and so on so forth for each type of door.

Something like this, maybe? Block door = (Block) e.getBlock().getState().getData();

 

I get an error: Cannot be cast

I'm at a loss then. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

 

Bump
