is there a way to extend a hitbox outside the block range? [1.19]

[Airn]

Let's say I have a block that occupies 16x16x16 pixels and there's an extra 8 pixels on the X axis outside this range (24x16x16).

Is there a way to make this extra part interactable (through the "use" method) without the need of a second block?

Don't make blocks that extend outside a single block.

Even the ones Mojang have made don't work very well.

hitboxes being one of the problems.

Create "multiblocks" like beds, doors, DoublePlantBlock, etc.

 

Use search in this forum where you will find these issues discussed many times before in various forms.

Yeah, I'm aware of the issues. I was just wondering if there was another way to do what I wanted without a second block. Well, thanks anyway.
