SalamiJack's Hookshot Plugin!

Source Code Download [Mirror]

Version: v1.3.3

HookShot is a plugin that allows users to fire an arrow as a "hook", and then use string to pull themselves towards it! Right-Click whilst holding arrows to fire a "hook", then right-click whilst holding string to "pull" yourself towards the hook! Consumes string per use!

Now Uses Permissions! Add 'hookshot.use' to use! Hooks are NOT a replacement for bows, hooks no longer do damage!

Features:

Right-Click whilst holding arrows to fire them as a "hook"!
Right-Click whilst holding string to "pull" yourself to the hook!
Allows another use for string!
Scale tall mountains with ease!
Editable config allows you to set the "hook" item, "pull" item, "pull" cost, and if there's a cost at all!
Want to scale up flat walls? Holding shift, then "pulling" causes a block to be placed beneath you simulating you "gripping" the wall. When you stop holding shift, the blocks disappears.
