Solved Pushing players around an other player away

Hi there!
I want to push away all players around an other player.
I tried the following, but sometimes a player gets thrown away far more blocks than I want:

Code:

for (Entity entity : player.getNearbyEntities(5, 5, 5)) {
    if (entity instanceof Player) {
        Player p = (Player) entity;
       
        Vector playerCenterVector = player.getEyeLocation().toVector();
        Vector playerToThrowVector = p.getEyeLocation().toVector();
       
        double x = playerToThrowVector.getX() - playerCenterVector.getX();
        double z = playerToThrowVector.getZ() - playerCenterVector.getZ();
       
        Vector throwVector = new Vector(x, 1, z).normalize().multiply(2);
       
        p.setVelocity(throwVector);
    }
}

I want all players who are located in the radius of 5 blocks away from the player in the middle, to be thrown away in the relative direction.
I know, my idea is very complicated to understand, so I've made a picture:
(red = player in center, blue = surrounding players (to be thrown away), green = direction to be thrown away)

As seen in the picture, I want them, no matter where and how far away they stand, to be thrown up (y) 3 Blocks and to be thrown away (xz) 5 Blocks.

I appreciate your answers very much!

 

bump (I actually want to know too, I have never tried this :/)

 

Solved it myself! I use now only "Location loc = player.getEyeLocation()" without ".toVector()". That solved it... >.<
Here is the code:

Code:

for (Entity entity : player.getNearbyEntities(5, 5, 5)) {
    if (entity instanceof Player) {
        Player p = (Player) entity;
       
        Location playerCenterLocation = player.getEyeLocation();
        Location playerToThrowLocation = p.getEyeLocation();
       
        double x = playerToThrowLocation.getX() - playerCenterLocation.getX();
        double y = playerToThrowLocation.getY() - playerCenterLocation.getY();
        double z = playerToThrowLocation.getZ() - playerCenterLocation.getZ();
       
        Vector throwVector = new Vector(x, y, z);
       
        throwVector.normalize();
        throwVector.multiply(1.5D);
        throwVector.setY(1.0D);
       
        p.setVelocity(throwVector);
    }
}

 

@comniemeer
Please tag your post as solved.

 

@API_Tutorials Yes, sorry, forgot that.

 

@comniemeer Thanks for posting your solved code here, I respect that.

 

You could do that very easy yourself. And for my needs, I don't need that.

No problem
