Launching Players

I was wondering if there is anyway to launch a player in the air. If you know how can you please paste the code in the comments?

 

I will give you the idea, player.setVelocity(up);

You figure out how to make it work.

 

Code:

player.setVelocity(player.getVelocity().setY(5000));

Don't wonder if you don't see your world anymore xD

 

I tried yours but when I put the code in and when I did the command it didnt do anything

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Think of velocity as the player actually moving, as in vectors. You need to set their pitch to -90 (make the vector aim up) for them to move up. Multiplying that causes the effect to increase.

Code:

Location location = player.getLocation().clone();
location.setPitch(-90);
Vector direction = location.getDirection();
player.setVelocity(direction.multiply(2.0));

That will cause the player to sort of 'jump up'.

Did you register the command in the plugin.yml and if you were handling the command in a class other than you main, did you set the command handler for that command?

 

LOL its seems I was spelling the command wrong in the plugin.yml Thanks a whole bunch Everyone!

 

No you don't need that... x goes always to x, z goes always to z and y goes always to y and that means: up

 

Hmm, ok. I see what his problem was. I've always done it the "pitch way" without problem myself, so that's what I thought the problem was.
