Minecraft plugin Elevator

🔌 About Elevator

Elevator — is a plugin for Minecraft servers that allows using daylight detectors as simple smart elevator pads to move between floors without redstone or complex setups.

🎯 Purpose

Elevator addresses the need for simple, server‑side vertical transport that works in Survival and Creative without additional redstone circuits or command blocks. It provides a plug‑and‑play elevator system based on daylight detectors: jump to go up, sneak to go down. Elevator is designed to be lightweight and lag‑free for modern Paper/Spigot servers.

⚙ Main features

• Use daylight detectors as elevator pads (public by default).
• Invert (right‑click) a detector to make the elevator private (only the creator can use it).
• Jump to go up and sneak to go down.
• Configurable sounds, messages and action‑bar feedback via config.yml.
• Fully server‑side and lightweight; no client mods required.
• Includes a simple /elevator info command for plugin details. ()

🧩 Who is it for

Elevator is suited for:

• Survival and creative Paper/Spigot servers that want a low‑effort transport solution.
• Servers that prefer no permissions or complicated setup (plug‑and‑play).
• Builders who want in‑world elevators without redstone machinery.

🏗 Usage examples

• Create vertical transport lines by placing daylight detectors on each floor; players jump to ascend and sneak to descend.
• Make certain floors private by inverting the detector so only the creator can use that elevator pad.
• Use configurable sounds/messages to give feedback when a player teleports between floors. ()
