We recommend backing up your door configurations before major updates.<\/p>\n<p>## Key Features<br \/>\n&#8211; **Smooth Animation System**: Say goodbye to &#8220;snapping&#8221; movements. PivotPoly uses a high-performance tick-based interpolation system (20TPS) combined with client-side sub-tick smoothing to deliver fluid motion.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Rigid Body Physics**: Blocks move as a single synchronized unit. Whether it&#8217;s a massive heavy door or a small hatch, the entire structure maintains its integrity during movement.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Support for Multi-Stage Paths**:<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Swing Doors**: Classic hinge-based rotation.<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Slide Doors**: Linear movement along X, Y, or Z axes.<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Garage Doors**: Realistic &#8220;Lift-and-Tuck&#8221; movement where the door slides up and then tucks away flat against the ceiling.<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Drawbridges**: Heavy vertical rotation for castle gates and bridges.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Custom Easing Profiles**: Choose how your structures move:<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Smooth**: Sine-based acceleration\/deceleration for a natural feel.<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Bounce**: Energetic bounce-back effect upon completion.<br \/>\n    &#8211; **Linear**: Constant speed for mechanical precision.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Interactive Collision**: Invisible physical colliders move in perfect sync with the visual blocks, preventing players from walking through moving doors.<br \/>\n&#8211; **In-Game GUI Manager**: Configure sounds, easing, timers, and proximity triggers through an intuitive menu (`\/pp gui`).<\/p>\n<p>## Installation<br \/>\n1. Ensure your server is running a modern version of Paper, Purpur, or Spigot (1.20.x+ recommended).<br \/>\n2. Drop `PivotPoly.jar` into your `plugins` folder.<br \/>\n3. Restart the server.<\/p>\n<p>## Getting Started<br \/>\n1. Use `\/pp wand` to select the region of blocks you want to animate.<br \/>\n2. Select your hinge\/pivot point.<br \/>\n3. Run `\/pp create <name>` to define your new animated structure.<br \/>\n4. Access `\/pp gui` to fine-tune the movement type and easing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":121817,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"pivot-poly","_minecraft_project_id":"2wA4M2il","_minecraft_author":"Thebestharrison","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":31,"_minecraft_follows":1,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"pivot-poly.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":49600,"_minecraft_version_count":1,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T22:05:59.963384Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2026-02-02T23:51:15.473400Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-02-02T22:42:38.468860Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/pivot-poly","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":121817,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-07T03:56:12+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"6552b01d5d204c9f3ba1259dbbf7a25e","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[124,156,89,873,126,127,128,129,123,92],"mod_loader":[130,132,133,134],"minecraft_version":[59,36,60,93,94,101,102,62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82],"class_list":["post-121816","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-bukkit","mod_category-decoration","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-library","mod_category-management","mod_category-paper","mod_category-purpur","mod_category-spigot","mod_category-technology","mod_category-utility","mod_loader-bukkit","mod_loader-paper","mod_loader-purpur","mod_loader-spigot","minecraft_version-1-20","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-20-2","minecraft_version-1-20-3","minecraft_version-1-20-4","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
