This update is for Spigot / Minecraft 1.17, and is compiled using Spigot API 1.17 and Java 16.

Following Mojang's decision to require Java 16 for Minecraft 1.17+, from version 3.1 this plugin also now requires a minimum Java version of 16.

Version 3.0 of the plugin is supported on Minecraft/Spigot 1.16.5.

Change Log
=========
  • require java 16
  • update bstats to 2.2.1
  • allow setsound and settrail to accept 'none' to remove the sound or particle effect
  • add colour support for particle effects, e.g. REDSTONE, DUST_COLOR_TRANSITION

This update is only supported on servers running Minecraft 1.16+

The only change from version 2.5 is to make the 3 new types of pressure plate introduced in 1.16 available.

This has been done using the new "Pressure_Plates" tag instead of hardcoding a list of Materials which makes it more future-proof, but the downside being the plugin will not work on versions prior to 1.16.

Other than the 3 new pressure plates, the functionality of version 2.5 and 3.0 is the same.

Change Log
=========
Add 1.16 support
Make 3 new pressure plates available:
Code (Text):
Crimson_Pressure_Plate
Warped_Pressure_Plate
Polished_Blackstone_Pressure_Plate
Update bstats to 1.7

This update is for Spigot/Minecraft 1.13 to 1.15.2, and has been compiled with Spigot API 1.15.2.

This is a small update which should make the height achieved more consistent each time, especially when using smaller values for "force".

This update is for Spigot/Minecraft 1.13 to 1.15.1, and has been compiled with Spigot API 1.15.1.

The help screens have been improved by making all the commands clickable, so clicking a command from the list will paste the command into the chat window.

For non-vertical launches, the magnitude configuration option has been removed and now uses the same "Force" option used for vertical launches.

A new command has been added to toggle between vertical and non-vertical launches.

Fix a bug in the version update checker which was generating a console error on startup.

Change Log
=========
  • remove magnitude from config and use single force setting
  • simplify forward trajectory to make more realistic
  • fix update checker
  • hover-text on help screen
  • add command to set vertical launch option
  • refactor package names to standard
  • refactor command class

Change Log:
  • Fixes issue where double bounce sometimes caused fall damage
  • refactor unnecessary statics
  • combine 'setupConfig' and 'settings' into a single class for simplicity
  • allow Console to run all available commands
----------, Feb 18, 2019

Bug fix:
When a player's first bounce lands back on the launch plate, the subsequent bounce(s) can sometimes inflict fall damage on the player when finally landing on the ground.

Re-compiled with Spigot 1.13.2.(was 1.13.1).

  • Added all additional pressure plate types
  • Updated default config.yml
  • Added 'lpl' command alias
  • Added tab completion
  • Improved help messages
  • Added 'setforce' command to easily adjust height of bounce
  • Added 'list' command to display current settings
  • Removed requirement to reload plugin after changing settings

In this update I've tried to remove the 64 block limit to the height that a player can be launched. So by setting the 'force' variable to the required value, any height should be achievable.

For a 'force' value between 1.0 and 4.0 there is no change between this version and version 1.6, with a height of about 64 blocks being possible.

However values above 4.0 will launch the player to heights in excess of 64 blocks. In the testing I've done, very high values can be a little juddery sometimes but hopefully not too much at lower values.

Added commands so that players with launchplate.admin permission can set the block, pressure plate, sound effect and particle effect in-game.The config will need reloading (by running /lp reload) for any changes to take effect.

Added a version checker which will output a message to the console if a newer version of LaunchPlate is available on Spigot.

Added Metrics using bStats ( https://bstats.org/).
