Hi everyone, first I must say I'm new to modding minecraft and new to Java.

I'm trying to create a new redstone powered block that works like a springboard. It's intended for adventure maps so it's indestructible.

 

My problem is that when the block is activated by the player(right clicking) everything works fine and the player is launched to the air

but when it's activated by redstone every other entity is launched(pigs, mobs, etc..) EXCEPT for the player.

Anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong?

 

I'm working on minecraft version 1.4.7 if that helps.

 

Here is the block class code: http://paste.minecraftforge.net/view/3677cf49

 

Here is the problematic function:

private void BumpEntities(World world, int x, int y, int z)
{
    	List<Entity> list = world.getEntitiesWithinAABB(Entity.class, AxisAlignedBB.getBoundingBox(x, y, z, x+1, y+1, z+1));
for(Entity entity : list)
{
	entity.addVelocity(0, Force, 0);
}
}

 

check if its a player with instanceof

 if ( entity instanceof EntityPlayer) { code here} 

 

I actually want any entity to be pushed up, so it's fine if it's not a player.

again, the problem is that the player does not move, I looked in debug the player is found and addVelocity() adds the right amount of motion

to the player entity and yet he does not move..
