When you step into a tripwire, this tripwire gets powered. This is a server-side event. I want to disable this mechanic (I am working on a plugin which allows to replace some strings variations to simulate new blocks via a resourcepack). According to CraftBukkit source code this should be feasible by disabling PlayerInteractEvent, but this event is not called.

Here is a block created using this method (you can see powered:false at the right):

If I step inside the block, it gets powered:

Here is CraftBukkit code from buildtools (net.minecraft.world.level.block.BlockTripWire.java), see line 165:

{{ // If all of the events are cancelled block the tripwire trigger, else allow}}

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/akudumigol.kotlin

Here is a minimal example:

@EventHandler
public void tripwireEvent1(PlayerInteractEvent event) {
event.setCancelled(true);
Logs.logInfo("triggered 1");
}

@EventHandler
public void tripwireEvent2(EntityInteractEvent event) {
event.setCancelled(true);
Logs.logInfo("triggered 2");
}
 

Those events are successfully registered (I see "triggered 1" when right clicking on a block for example), but strangely, they are not triggered when you step into a tripwire which prevents me from disabling this mechanism.
