JumpPadPlugin

A JumpPad plugin for Minecraft. A JumpPad is a block that will throw away a user that steps on it in a certain direction.

Prerequisits

• There must be a directory under CraftBukkit/plugins, named "JumpPad". This is where this plugin will save information about all existing jumppads.

Functionality

The plugin provides administrative commands for handling JumpPads, a way of saving and loading the created JumpPads to/from file storage and implementing the actual launching of players that step on a JumpPad.

Administrative commands

• add: Add a new named JumpPad located to the STONE_PLATE block that is closest to the player
• edit: Edit the parameters of an existing JumpPad
• remove: Remove an existing JumpPad
• goto: Teleport to an existing JumpPad, temporarily stops the JumpPad from working for this player so that he/she is not thrown away immediately
• list: Show a list with all existing JumpPads

The actual Jump

When a user steps on a JumpPad, he/she will first be thrown up in the air (according to the parameters for that JumpPad). When the user has reached the maximum height, he/she is shot away (according to the parameters for that JumpPad) in the direction that the creator of the JumpPad was looking when the JumpPad was created.

Restrictions

A player must have the "jumppad.jump" permission to use a JumpPad. If he/she doesn't, then he/she will be informed that she needs to read the server rules first.
