Usage

Creating A Jump
Measurement Tools can be used to create jumps. This is done by placing two markers blocks with five empty spaces between them. Marker blocks can be any vanilla or modded building block. For the example shown below, red concrete was used.

Stand facing the marker blocks, right click the first block then move sideways to right click the second. 

Error messages can be seen above the inventory hotbar when the Measurement Tool is used incorrectly.

Creating A Jump
Measurement tool is required to create custom jumps. Follow this step by step method to use the tool.

Place Stillany stuck?block Check(ie out Brooke's Videodirt) on YT!the ground Move sideways (straight line) and place a second block exactly 5 blocks away (Block - 5B space - Block)
Stand in front of one block (looking at it) and right-click the block with a measurement tool in hand Stand in front of the second block (looking at it) and right-click the block with a measurement tool in hand This should bring up the Jump Builder GUI

Customizing Jumps

Other information

When you Add Layers, the jump will become a taller obstacle even if you do not add any poles etc. Each layer adds an invisible block between the standards that a horse must go over or jump whether there is visually a pole or not. Each jump has a small invisible jump control element that is spawned when a new jump is created. If there are any blocks above the jump, it may delete them. It is recommended that any indoor arena planning to have jumps, up to the maximum jump height, has a roof of no less than 11 blocks. This is not to accommodate for the jump controller, rather the peak point at a max level jump where a rider and horse would collide with the roof.

Troubleshooting 

I do not understand how to use the measurement tool!

Still stuck? Check out Brooke's Video on YT!

I keep getting an error message!

Error Messages (Incorrect Use)
Text above the inventory hotbar can inform a user that they are using the Measurement Tool incorrectly. There are 4 error messages in total that can appear for any of the most common user-errors when making jumps.

Solution: Check that there is exactly 5 blocks between marker blocks. B-S-S-S-S-S-B (B = Block, S = Space/Air) Too many spaces or too few and the jump will not be created.

Solution: Face your first marker block, right click the block. Move sideways (do not turn!) until you are in front of the second block, right click it. 

Solution: One of your blocks is not directly opposite the other marker, make sure they are on a straight line and not at an angle.

Solution: One of your blocks is at a different height than the other marker, make sure both blocks are at same Y level (on level ground)

Known Issues

If you find an issue, please report it to our bugs channel on Discord. We ask that you look to see if your issue was reported first!

• [~]   Measurement Tools can stop working due to 'soft locking'. If the player is receiving no error messages for incorrect use, the issue can usually be resolved by replacing the item.
  

It is strongly recommended that jumps (and other multiblock items like stall doors) are deleted prior to taking a WorldEdit selection to avoid issues. Including jumps and stall doors in WE Schematics can potentially corrupt schematics.
