LaunchPad

🚀 LaunchPad

Turn any block into a launch pad! Stand on it, press 'F' (Use/Interact), and get blasted into the sky.

✨ What does it do?

LaunchPad is a lightweight, fully configurable plugin that turns any block into a bouncy launch pad. Players stand on the block, press F (Use/Interact), and get launched upward with a burst of particles and sound. Fall damage is automatically cancelled when landing back on a launch pad block — no matter how high you go.

Perfect for hub worlds, parkour maps, minigames, PvP arenas, or just messing around with friends.

🎮 How It Works

1. Place the configured block (default: Yellow Cloth)
2. Stand on it and look down
3. Press 'F' (Use/Interact)
4. Get launched into the sky! 🚀
5. Land on any launch pad block — no fall damage taken
