    The launcher kit allows you to place sponges that launch players into the air, but deal no fall damage. On the old mcpvp servers, the launcher kit used to be able to put a pressure plate on top of their sponges (Or any non-full block) in order to cause them to deal fall damage. This may or may not have been a feature, but even if it wasn't It'd be nice if you added it back in. It was one of the few things that made the kit worth anything, and it was one of the best (and most fun) ways to use the kit. The kit is pretty much useless now, I'd suggest you bring that old feature back.

    Would be a nice feature, would help make launcher viable for traps.

    Also, I've been testing it out, and the old "Vertical Force Field" Trap doesn't work anymore, it's basically where you launch the player so high, the vertical force field kills them, would you guys ever reconsider adding this?

    I would assume fisherman + launcher still works and is still annoying

    Isn't it a bit obvious when there's a Pressure Plate on a sponge, and it signifies fall damage? Anyways I could see this being very OP when teaming with a Stomper :V.

    One thing you can do is hide on top of a mountain, and cover the sponges with snow. That way, you can have a trap that most people won't see coming (just hide in a little cave or something). I remember when the forcefield wasn't solid, and one thing people used to do was use sponges to launch players out of the map and get them stuck until they died of forcefield damage.

    Well, it works with any non-full block, and its more about luring them onto the sponge, then just letting them step onto it themselves.
