ExplosiveElytras is a light-weight plugin built using the Spigot API. This plugin causes explosions to occur when a player impacts an object at a high velocity. These explosions only occur if the player has a certain item in their inventory, such as tnt. This plugin is highly configurable, allowing you to customize the conditions which trigger explosions.

These explosions can only be triggered if a player takes damage. This means that explosions can only occur if a player is in survival mode. Vertical impacts only cause explosions if fall damage is enabled as well.

A Developer API is provided and actively maintained. More details on this are provided on the wiki.

This plugin is compatible with Spigot versions 1.9.x, 1.10.x, 1.11.x, 1.12.x, 1.13.x, 1.14.x, 1.15.x, and 1.16.x.

Disclaimer for Usage with Protection Plugins

Some protection/logging plugins may not guard against the BlockExplodeEvent. This is the event which is triggered by explosions in this plugin. If the protection plugin you are using is out of date (no updates in several years), destroyed blocks may not be logged.

Below is a list of common protection plugins and their status on this.

✓ WorldGuard: Integrated support added. Details:
- NOTE WorldGuard integration is only available for WorldGuard 7 (1.13+). If you need WorldGuard integration for an older server version running WorldGuard 6, you will have to use v0.10.2 of ExplosiveElytras.
- Explosions will not occur if block-tnt is set to true.
- Explosions will not occur in regions where the tnt flag is set to deny.
- If block-tnt-block-damage is set to true explosions will still occur but will not damage blocks.
- You will not blow up in regions where you're not a member unless you have the bypass permission.
- In the latest WorldGuard versions, the configuration option explosion-flags-block-entity-damage is enabled by default. This will cause ExplosiveElytras to work improperly. Please disable it.
✓ GriefPrevention: Supports this event.
✓ CoreProtect: Supported in CoreProtect v2.15.0+. (issue)
✓ LogBlock: Supported as of commit defcfee. This is available on the LogBlock build server.

These are the 4 major plugins that we have tested. If you use another protection plugin please check with us.
