WORLDGUARD-3353 - Reported by AglarCZ

Hello,
on my server i got problem that pixelmon machines (PC, healer, cloning machine etc.) can be placed in worldguard regions of another player. Same with mossy and ice rock. Everythings else (ores, pokeloot etc.) is fine but machines and rocks are bugged in this way.

Any idea what to do with it?
Can you fix it or should I report this bug to pixelmon team?

PS: i am using latest cauldron with WG 5.9

Oh wait -- I see you mentioned WG 5.9. v6 is better with non-vanilla blocks, but I don't think it will help you in this situation because 5.9 normally blocks block placements for everything.

I will try event logging and let you know if something shows up.

Event logging only works on 6.x+

If you end up upgrading, you should create a backup of your region files first.

However, you can also just test 6.x + Pixelmon on a test server.

Here is what i got: http://ctrlv.cz/shots/2015/01/28/wjD6.png
It says now that i cant place it there but placing still works.

From reading the log, it looks like Pixelmon is using its own method of placing block rather than Minecraft's, which Cauldron/Bukkit is not aware of, so WorldGuard cannot block it.

Reasonably, there's not much we can do on our part.

Posting here because im banned from the irc channel because of wizjany not agreeing with a bug i found in worldguard once and issuing a permaban.

SO, pixelmon dev time!
We have the Block itself (usaully not obtainable) and a ItemBlock, which is what the player will end up with,
The ItemBlock checks if theres space for the object where its being placed and if so calls world.setBlock, What exactly do we need to add to support worldguard properly?

We talked and this issue is currently fixed but requires a Pixelmon update (maybe in the future -- I am not familiar with Pixelmon's release setup).

Unfortunately there is nothing we can really do about mods that circumvent protections, and you will likely not get much support from the mod authors either.

See http://docs.enginehub.org/manual/worldguard/latest/regions/scope/#mod-and-plugin-support

You can try enabling http://docs.enginehub.org/manual/worldguard/latest/advanced/event-logging/ and then placing Pixelmon machines to see if anything even shows up in the log. If something does, post it here.
