Describe the question
In MC prior to 1.14x, I can listen for PacketType.Play.Client.USE_ITEM packets to handle block placements. And I can use this to retrieve the position of the block placed:

BlockPosition pos = e.getPacket().getBlockPositionModifier().readSafely(0);

However, in MC 1.14 and newer pos is always null. Is there any alternative (whatever way to get the same functionality, with packets, without using Bukkit events)?

API method(s) used

• onPacketReceiving (USE_ITEM)
• PacketContainer#getBlockPositionModifier (works before 1.14, nulls in 1.14+)

Expected behavior
I'd like to get the coordinates of the block placed (behavior as in versions prior to 1.14, but in 1.14+).

Code

Additional context
ProtocolLib 4.6.1-SNAPSHOT-b498 (freshly downloaded version from Jenkins, tested right before opening this issue)

Thank you! I confirm this works on MC 1.14 and newer.

However, e.getPacket().getMovingBlockPositions().read(0) is always null in versions before 1.14 (tested 1.8.8, 1.9.4, and 1.13.2). Having some backwards compatibility in ProtocolLib would be nice, I think (just like in case with #1242)

Hi! Any response to this? (Is this an issue that was fixed, or ...?)

@MeGysssTaa
try this on latest version of ProtocolLib
BlockPosition pos = e.getPacket().getMovingBlockPositions().read(0).getBlockPosition()
