About the PressurePlateLauncher plugin

I saw a few people requesting this plugin on the forums, so I decided to make it, it currently is a small lightweight plugin that offers you the ability to get launched far in the direction you are facing.

CHANGELOG

  • Now added a multiply and yaxis, see the config section

WHAT MAKES THIS UNIQUE?

  • This plugin offers so that not all pressure plates launch you, just ones that have redstone blocks underneath them.
  • You get dealt no damage after being launched
  • There are no commands required

CRAFT A PRESSUREPLATELAUNCHER!

To make a pressureplate launcher, it is really simple! What you have to do is:

  • Place a redstone block
  • Above that redstone block, place a pressure plate

CONFIG

  • The config offers whether it should be on or off To use the config, whether you want the plugin enabled or disabled, change it by modifying from true or false
  • Lightweight config with either "true" or "false"
  • Config offers optional permissions
  • Now config lets a player choose how much they're multiplied by and how much their yaxis is increased by, 1 = 5 blocks and multiply is recommended as 3.

COMMANDS

  • /lpreload - reloads server + config :) - /lpreloadcf - reloads the config only :)

PERMISSIONS

To modify permissions, change the permissions string from false to true or true to false in the config Permissions can be controlled by the config being "true" or "false" If you want permissions to be on, then the permission is launch.pads

  • If permissions is true then the permission is launch.pads
  • permission "lpcf.reload" will be added on next update (v.6)

VIDEO ON HOW TO USE IT!

OTHER PERKS

  • Very useful for minigame servers
  • Always open for improvements
  • Highly configurable, if you want the launchpads to work for 10 minutes, change it in the config, then change it back

This plugin was ofcourse made under many requests as I said, and if you like it, make sure to recommend it to others I hope you enjoy using it, it took quite a while to make it so that it doesn't just change 1 axis rather than where they're facing

POSSIBLE ADD-ONS

  • A block

You suggest what you want! All suggestions will be taken into consideration
