Movenent Mechanics

MovementMechanics

Fast, clean movement upgrades for Paper 1.21.11.

MovementMechanics adds two core mechanics that feel great in lobbies, parkour zones, minigames, and adventure servers:

- Double Jump (Survival + Adventure) - Launch Pads (Stone Pressure Plate on Diamond Block)

Why this plugin?

- Built for Paper API best practices - Uses performant event choices (`PlayerInteractEvent` for pad triggers) - Configurable velocity and effects - Simple permission system - Java 21 + modern plugin structure

Mechanics

Double Jump

- Players in Survival/Adventure can perform one mid-air double jump. - The plugin enables flight while grounded, then intercepts `PlayerToggleFlightEvent`. - Real flight is canceled and replaced by a velocity launch. - Includes `ENTITY_BAT_TAKEOFF` sound + `CLOUD` particles. - Reset happens only when the player lands.

Launch Pads

- Trigger by stepping on a Diamond Block with a Diamond Block directly underneath. - Uses `Action.PHYSICAL` interaction for better performance than move polling. - Launches players in their current look direction (yaw/pitch) with extra upward clearance. - Includes `ENTITY_ENDER_DRAGON_FLAP` sound + particle trail.

Commands

- `/mvme reload` - `/mvme give <player> <jumppad|jumpblock> [amount]` - `/mvme perms`

Permissions

- `movementmechanics.*` - all permissions - `movementmechanics.command` - base `/mvme` usage - `movementmechanics.command.reload` - reload config - `movementmechanics.command.give` - give utility items - `movementmechanics.doublejump` - use double jump - `movementmechanics.launchpad` - trigger launch pads

Compatibility

- Server software: Paper - Minecraft: 1.21.11 - Java: 21

Configuration

Tune behavior in `plugins/MovementMechanics/config.yml`:

- Double-jump forward/upward multipliers - Launch-pad forward/upward multipliers - Particle counts and trail settings - Sound volume/pitch - Trigger cooldown

Notes

- Admin command permissions default to op. - Mechanic permissions default to true. - Supports live tuning with `/mvme reload`.
