Adding velocities on player's direction.

So, I've made this jump pad plugin, and for example, I want to add the velocity to the Z location for example, and launch the player a higher distance than the normal. So if the player walked across the block, it would launch him 100 blocks on the Z coordinates.

Code:

@EventHandler
  public void onMove(PlayerMoveEvent e) {
      Player p = e.getPlayer();
      if(p.getLocation().getBlock().getRelative(BlockFace.DOWN).getType() == Material.LAPIS_BLOCK){
          p.setVelocity(new Vector(p.getLocation().getDirection().getX(), 1.5, p.getLocation().getDirection().getZ()));
          p.sendMessage(ChatColor.BLUE.toString() + ChatColor.BOLD + "Jump boost!");
      }

In a better way, if the player is looking South or North, it would launch him 50 blocks in these directions. If the player is looking West or East it would launch him 50 blocks in these directions.

p.setVelocity(p.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(3.0D));

 

My JumpPad-Listener:

Code:

package listener;

import org.bukkit.Effect;
import org.bukkit.Location;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.Sound;
import org.bukkit.World;
import org.bukkit.block.Block;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerMoveEvent;
import org.bukkit.util.Vector;

@SuppressWarnings("unused")
public class JPListener
  implements Listener
{
  @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@EventHandler
  public void onJoin(PlayerMoveEvent e)
  {
    Player p = e.getPlayer();
    if (p.getLocation().subtract(0.0D, 0.0D, 0.0D).getBlock().getType() == Material.GOLD_PLATE)
    {
      World w = p.getWorld();
      double x = p.getLocation().getX();
      double y = p.getLocation().getY();
      double z = p.getLocation().getZ();
      p.playEffect(new Location(w, x, y, z), Effect.ENDER_SIGNAL, 10);
      p.playSound(new Location(w, x, y, z), Sound.ENDERDRAGON_WINGS, 10.0F, 10.0F);
      Vector v = p.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(6D).setY(1D);
      p.setVelocity(v);
    }
    Player r = e.getPlayer();
    if (p.getLocation().subtract(0.0D, 0.0D, 0.0D).getBlock().getType() == Material.STONE_PLATE)
    {
      World w = r.getWorld();
      double x = r.getLocation().getX();
      double y = r.getLocation().getY();
      double z = r.getLocation().getZ();
      r.playEffect(new Location(w, x, y, z), Effect.MOBSPAWNER_FLAMES, 10);
      r.playSound(new Location(w, x, y, z), Sound.WITHER_SHOOT, 10.0F, 10.0F);
      Vector v = p.getLocation().getDirection().multiply(4D).setY(0.5D);
      r.setVelocity(v);
    }
 
  }
}
