perhaps use the player walks in conjunction with the collides_at tag?

!e player walks

[finite tinsel]

Event: player walks

Group

Player

**WARNING**

This event fires very very rapidly!

Event Lines

player walks

Triggers

when a player moves in the slightest.

Has Player

Always. - this adds switches flagged:<flag name> + permission:<node>, in addition to the <player> link.

Context

<context.old_location> returns the location of where the player was.
<context.new_location> returns the location of where the player is.

Has Known Location

True - this adds switches in:<area> + location_flagged:<flag name>.

Cancellable

True - this adds <context.cancelled> and determines cancelled + cancelled:false.

!t collides_at

[finite tinsel]

Tag: <EntityTag.collides_at[<location>]>

Returns whether the entity's bounding box would collide if the entity was moved to the given location.
This checks for any colliding entities (like boats and shulkers), the world border and regular blocks.
(Note that this won't load chunks at the location.)

actually, im unsure if it'd work for liquids & grass

let me check o.o

okay so, <player.collides_at[<player.location.up[1]>]> returns true

so you could check using that tag with the event above

[midnight pawn]

why walks?
why collides?

I could use

    on player steps on block:
    - if <context.new_location> matches water

But the thing is I have a lot cases when I need to check player location material.
Like right now I'm making rabies disease and I want water damage infected players.
Or I need to check if player steps on 1 layer snow.

I know it's a small optimization but if there is a lot of player steps events it could have performance impact.
And switches work faster than if checks inside an event.
Plus it's just a nice clean shortcut

[supple hamlet]

you could use the steps one as well, collides checks for any collision with the player and other blocks (like tall grass, liquids) but doesn't seem to work with snow
