Pivot Poly

# PivotPoly **PivotPoly** is a powerful Minecraft plugin designed for creators, builders, and server owners who want to bring their builds to life with high-fidelity, smooth-animated mechanical structures. > **** > **This project is currently in BETA.** > Systems are being actively refined, and you may encounter minor bugs. We recommend backing up your door configurations before major updates. ## Key Features - **Smooth Animation System**: Say goodbye to "snapping" movements. PivotPoly uses a high-performance tick-based interpolation system (20TPS) combined with client-side sub-tick smoothing to deliver fluid motion. - **Rigid Body Physics**: Blocks move as a single synchronized unit. Whether it's a massive heavy door or a small hatch, the entire structure maintains its integrity during movement. - **Support for Multi-Stage Paths**: - **Swing Doors**: Classic hinge-based rotation. - **Slide Doors**: Linear movement along X, Y, or Z axes. - **Garage Doors**: Realistic "Lift-and-Tuck" movement where the door slides up and then tucks away flat against the ceiling. - **Drawbridges**: Heavy vertical rotation for castle gates and bridges. - **Custom Easing Profiles**: Choose how your structures move: - **Smooth**: Sine-based acceleration/deceleration for a natural feel. - **Bounce**: Energetic bounce-back effect upon completion. - **Linear**: Constant speed for mechanical precision. - **Interactive Collision**: Invisible physical colliders move in perfect sync with the visual blocks, preventing players from walking through moving doors. - **In-Game GUI Manager**: Configure sounds, easing, timers, and proximity triggers through an intuitive menu (`/pp gui`). ## Installation 1. Ensure your server is running a modern version of Paper, Purpur, or Spigot (1.20.x+ recommended). 2. Drop `PivotPoly.jar` into your `plugins` folder. 3. Restart the server. ## Getting Started 1. Use `/pp wand` to select the region of blocks you want to animate. 2. Select your hinge/pivot point. 3. Run `/pp create <name>` to define your new animated structure. 4. Access `/pp gui` to fine-tune the movement type and easing!
