player.setVelocity() not launching player into Y-Direction

also I don't know that much about velocities but shouldn't you use .normalize() behind the vector what you set?
I guess that should stop being kicked I geuss but I can be wrong.

All Listeners are registered and it "works". (Only pushes the Player forwarad a bit, but not launching him into the Sky )

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onStep(PlayerInteractEvent e){
    if(e.getAction().equals(Action.PHYSICAL)){
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        if(e.getClickedBlock().getType() == Material.STONE_PLATE){
        Block b = e.getClickedBlock().getLocation().subtract(0.0D, 1.0D, 0.0D).getBlock();
        if(b.getType() == Material.COAL_BLOCK){
                    p.setVelocity(p.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(4));
                    p.setVelocity(new Vector(p.getVelocity().getX(), 2.5D, p.getVelocity().getZ()));
                }
            }
        }
    }

 

I have this problem too
I solved it by teleporting the player 0.3 blocks up before setting the veloctiy
That works pretty good but not perfectly

:O Is that what you do?

I've found velocities and vectors to be broken, but I can never figure out why it works on double jump, but not on a launch pad

 

You need to teleport the player up a bit.

Code:java

p.teleport(p.getLocation().add(0, 0.5, 0));
                        p.setVelocity(new Vector(p.getLocation().getDirection().getX(),p.getLocation().getDirection().getY()+2,p.getLocation().getDirection().getZ()));

 

well guys, had to struggle with this issue alot lately.
simple and most comfortable solution is to delay the velocity setting by 1 tick.
Teleportation works fine too, but it looks a little crappy.

Code:java

Bukkit.getServer().getScheduler().scheduleSyncDelayedTask(plugin, new Runnable() {
 
                        public void run() {
                            player.setVelocity(vec);
 
                        }
                        }, 1L);
