The controls
The controls used for driving are for the most part intuitive and seamless. More detail:
Control | Use | Function |
Steering | Looking around | Turns the car in the direction you are looking |
Accelerate | Use the 'forwards' key (w) | Makes the car move forwards |
Reverse | Use the 'backwards' key (s) | Makes the car move backwards |
Brake | Use the 'right' key (d) | Makes the car travel slower |
Action | Use the 'left' key (a) | Uses whatever action other plugins have assigned to the car |
Stop | None | Stationary Car |
Exit Vehicle | Sneak (Shift) | Exit the car |
Going faster
To go that extra bit faster, there are 'boost' items which, when right clicked with when driving, will speed the car up (Consumed on use). There are three tiers of boost items and they may be changed in the config to any value desired. To view what these items are use /ucars. Here is a complete list of the items and their defaults:
Type | Default item | Action |
Low boost | Coal/Charcoal | Gives the user a short boost, for a short amount of time. |
Medium boost | Iron Ingot | Gives the user a reasonable boost, for a decent amount of time. |
High boost | Diamond | Gives the user a large boost for a rather long time. |
Effect Blocks
Built in to the road you may also find effect blocks. These can be positioned in the road, or a block below it and will each have an effect on the car when driven over. Effect blocks can also be changed in the config, so use /ucars to view what they are set to on your server. Here is a complete list of the effect blocks and what they do:
Type | Default block | Action |
Medium boost | Gold block | Applies a medium boost, for a reasonable amount of time |
High boost | Diamond block | Applies a large boost, for a long amount of time |
Slow down | Emerald block | Terminates any boosts a car has |
Jump | Iron block | Makes the car jump the height specified in the config |
Traffic light waiting | Quartz block | When on, if there is a traffic light off nearby, the car will be frozen (More info here) |
Teleport block | Magenta stained clay | Teleports the car to the location specified. (More info here) |
Entity Collisions
If, in the config, hitBy is enabled; when you drive into players or mobs(If enabled); they'll be knocked back and hurt.
