Check out the Forge version here

Minecraft mod that adds launchpads and directional launchpads (configurable) to the game!

Features:

A Launchblock that shoots the player into the direction their facing.
A Directional Launchblock that is configurable with numbers, and renders the direction with text above it (you can toggle this off!).
Smaller versions of these launchpads for non-collision usage (perfect for boats!). Just put the regular launchpads in the stonecutter!
Custom GUI for editing the launchpad.
Works on ALL entities.
Support for English, Dutch, Slovak & Swedish!

Please keep in mind that the GIFS on this page are outdated; the slime & honey is partially transparent like vanilla!
