🚀 LaunchPad Ultimate

LaunchPad Ultimate is a lightweight and customizable Minecraft server plugin that turns your chosen pressure plate into a powerful launchpad! Configure launch distance, launch height, cooldowns, particles, and sounds to create unique movement mechanics for your server.

Whether you're building a lobby, parkour course, minigame, or survival spawn, LaunchPad Ultimate gives you simple controls and flexible customization.

✨ Features

• Custom Pressure Plates: Choose which pressure plate material activates the launchpad.
• Adjustable Launch Distance: Control how far players are launched.
• Custom Launch Height: Adjust the upward launch strength.
• Launch Direction: Configure the direction of player launches.
• Cooldown System: Prevent repeated launches within a configurable interval.
• Premium Effects: Customize supported particles and launch sounds.
• Admin GUI: Access available settings through an in-game inventory menu.
• Give Command: Give pressure plate items to yourself or other players.
• Easy Configuration: Customize supported settings through config.yml.
• Instant Reload: Apply configuration changes using /launchpad reload, without restarting the server.

📥 Installation

1. Download the LaunchPad Ultimate JAR file.
2. Upload it to your Minecraft server's plugins folder.
3. Restart the server.
4. Open plugins/LaunchPad/config.yml.
5. Customize the settings to your preference.
6. Save the configuration and run /launchpad reload.

⚙️ Configuration

Example configuration:

mode: AUTOMATIC

pressure-plate: LIGHT_WEIGHTED_PRESSURE_PLATE

launch:
  distance: 15.0
  height: 2.5
  direction: PLAYER_FACING
  cooldown-seconds: 1.0

effects:
  particles:
    enabled: true
    type: CLOUD

  sound:
    enabled: true
    type: ENTITY_FIREWORK_ROCKET_LAUNCH

How it works: In automatic mode, every pressure plate matching the configured material can launch players. You don't need to register individual locations.

Change the material to select which pressure plates activate LaunchPad. Adjust the launch values to find the movement style that suits your server.

Note: The exact accepted values depend on the plugin version and the server's available materials and effects. Use the configuration generated by your installed version as the reference.
