Cool but... how does it work ?

 

You craft a block and then you place it.
You (and other entities) can jump on it.

 

oh now i get it, you keep jumping its like rubber thats it ?

 

So i'm guessing it doesn't make a new block as I didn't think that was possible
You've obviously got a new crafting recipe, but what block IS the jump block?
Looking forward to trying this

I'm guess its kinda like the plugins "roads" with its aerial faith plates that launch into the air? Because your description

Code:

Features:

 -   Craft Jump Blocks.
 -   Jump on Jump Blocks.

doesnt seem to help me understand what this plugin does.

 

Based on the source, he uses a unique double step block with a data value of 4. Quite brilliant if you ask me - create a new block type without truly adding one...

 

Yes.

Yes, if you jump on a Jump Block you will launched into the air.

I saw those blocks on a other server and then I created this plugin.

 

So its a bit like a trampoline

 

Yes.

 

I like this plugin. It'd be fun with a few configuration settings though.

By the way

Code:

public void onBlockPlace(BlockPlaceEvent event)
  {
    if (event.getItemInHand().getTypeId() == 43)
    {
      event.getBlockPlaced().setTypeId(43);
      event.getBlockPlaced().setData(4);
    }
  }

This turns all (placed) "43" into jump blocks. (So /give <username> 43 gives jump blocks)

It's also pointless to give data 4 blocks when using the furnace. (inventory doesn't save the data, or maybe it's that it stacks the same ID's regardless of data?)

*EDIT IN*

In any case, good job. I do intend to use this plugin.

 

Can you add a feature for we can regulare the power and no fall damage ?

 

Really like where this plugin is going, so many interesting things to do with this plugin. *watched thread*

 

Have you tested it? It seems odd, but works. I tried tweaking the code to remove this bit and it no longer worked :/

 

Would it be possible to make it so you can still stack single stone slabs without turning them into jump blocks? Maybe use ID 93 instead, which still turns into double stone slabs when you /give them to someone.

 

@bobthejeffmonkey : you can still stack single stone slabs without turnign them into jump blocks.

What happens is this id: 43 (which isn't used/can't be placed normally) becomes jump blocks.

@Zarius : this plugin is dependent on that clip. it's just a few things aren't necessary... but THAT code is.

 

how far do they launch you? like a normal jump?

recipe should include a slime at the top imo

 

they shoot you about 8 blocks into the air. i haven't really checked

 

Omg what you're doing here is amazing, adding a block without adding a block! You need to share this with other plugin makers so we don't have to keep reassigning blocks. Nonetheless, i'm making a trampoline and i'm gonna sell tickets. hehehe

 

This is the only block that has this, there are no other blocks that can do this.

 

Cool.
Permissions to build?

 

permissions to.. make the block?

 

That is smart. Never really thought of that. Opens up a lot of doors.

So because this is just a plugin and just modifys the double step blocks.. it's perfectly safe to install and uninstall it?

I stay away from mods that introduce new items because the last thing I want is for MC to update, and then the mod become abandoned leaving my world ruined or stuck in an older version.

But seeing as this introduces no new items, it should be safe. Correct?

It'd be kind of nice actually. I plan on having things like platforming races and whatnot in my server for server events to win prizes. It'd be cool to have jump blocks in them. However, I'd like the block to be special so you only see it during events.

so maybe permissions to build it would be nice.


and one question - is there any reason this was used instead of sponges?

 

Adding in next version.

That is hard.
I can only add a recipe for everyone, not for single people.

I never even thought about sponges.

 

Awesome. What about my other question? I'm pretty new to running a server. (Catching on quick though ) I just want to make sure it's safe to install this plugin and uninstall it. If you ever abandon this then I wouldn't want something to be messed up.

That's okay. As long as it's spawnable then that works. What's the ID though? I couldn't find it on the list.

A bunch of other plugins probably use them so it still gives us something additional. :]

 

If I ever abandon this plugin or you stop using this plugin, you have the blocks still on your server but they are useless.

 

That's what I was thinking. Thanks. Probably going to try this out when I can. :]

 

I was actually wondering what he meant by "permission to build," but i understood when I re-read it just now. (permission to place...)

I understand it would be hard to limit the recipe. ;p

 

What's the item ID for this?

 

@emcitement Item ID:43 (as I stated above)
