WORLDGUARD-3654 - Reported by Noble

Players are now able to be damaged when they crash into stuff with elytra wings. Even when the fall damage flag is set to deny. So this is a request to add a flag to prevent elytra crash damage or at least make prevent fall damage flag cover elytra wing crashes. I think it could be a new damage type I'm not sure.

Thank you for your time.

if the fall damage flag is not covering it it's because it's not fall damage.
it's probably https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/entity/EntityDamageEvent.DamageCause.html#FLY_INTO_WALL this one. i feel like i'm saying this over and over about 1.9, but i don't know if it would be more useful to wrap it into the fall damage flag or make it its own flag.

I feel fall damage and impact damage from hitting a wall are too similar to be treated separately. As they go hand in hand as both are a form of impact damage from hitting a block at a speed, just at different angles. Maybe a flag to replace fall damage with impact damage? Is this new damage form only possible with these elytra wings? I guess I will try to throw myself at a wall without wings to see if it still harms me. That will be fun to test.
