Elytra Launch

1.0.0

Launches players when elytra hopping!

·Plugin

Elytra Launch!
This simple plugin will allow easy deployment of elytra! Double jumping with the elytra will deploy them and allow a customizable boost to the player to send them forward and upwards.

Many players or struggling servers unfortunately have a high ping that makes the standard double jump + rocket elytra launch nearly impossible. This plugin can give these players an extra advantage. It's also really fun.

There is only one permission needed to activate the launch :
ElytraLaunch.launch

There is also a command for quickly testing various configurations. Simple use /elytrareload with the permission ElytraLaunch.reload and the new config will instantly be ready.

Pre-configured Files

The config.yml is very simple. Here are three versions that I made for different server situations.

Here is a configuration for laggy players to make them have a slight vertical boost when activating the elytra. This won't send them forward.

Slight Boost
Settings  :  
  launch   : 
  ## This is the message sent to the player when they launch!   
    launchMessage   :  '' 
 ## The directionalMultiplier is how fast the player will be thrown in the direction they're facing   
    directionalMultiplier   :  0.1 
 ## This is an additional speed boost applied to them. I don't recommend editing anything besides the Y value.   
    additionalVector  :  
      x   :  0 
 ## Increasing the Y value will increase their upward momentum when deploying the elytra.   
      y   :  0.45  
      z   :  0

This configuration is similar to the above with an additional forward boost. It's a bit more fun and even easier to take off:

Moderate Boost
Settings  :  
  launch   : 
  ## This is the message sent to the player when they launch!   
    launchMessage   :  '' 
 ## The directionalMultiplier is how fast the player will be thrown in the direction they're facing   
    directionalMultiplier   :  0.5 
 ## This is an additional speed boost applied to them. I don't recommend editing anything besides the Y value.   
    additionalVector  :  
      x   :  0 
 ## Increasing the Y value will increase their upward momentum when deploying the elytra.   
      y   :  0.45  
      z   :  0

This one has a nice forward boost and an increased vertical boost. Launching with this is nice and smooth and feels like butter.

Lovely Boost
Settings  :  
  launch   : 
  ## This is the message sent to the player when they launch!   
    launchMessage   :  '' 
 ## The directionalMultiplier is how fast the player will be thrown in the direction they're facing   
    directionalMultiplier   :  2.0 
 ## This is an additional speed boost applied to them. I don't recommend editing anything besides the Y value.   
    additionalVector  :  
      x   :  0 
 ## Increasing the Y value will increase their upward momentum when deploying the elytra.   
      y   :  1.0  
      z   :  0

This is less like butter and more like a human rocket. It launches them forward with a moderate vertical boost. This is very fun!

The Human Torpedo
Settings  :  
  launch   : 
  ## This is the message sent to the player when they launch!   
    launchMessage   :  '' 
 ## The directionalMultiplier is how fast the player will be thrown in the direction they're facing   
    directionalMultiplier   :  4 
 ## This is an additional speed boost applied to them. I don't recommend editing anything besides the Y value.   
    additionalVector  :  
      x   :  0 
 ## Increasing the Y value will increase their upward momentum when deploying the elytra.   
      y   :  0.5  
      z   :  0

I definitely encourage experimentation as this is very enjoyable.
