  1. For one of my plug-ins, I'm looking for a way to cause the explosion/splash of a splash potion at any location I choose (possibly in mid-air).

    I browsed through the methods of World and ThrownPotion, but couldn't find any method that would solve this easily.

    I am now thinking about spawning a splash potion and some kind of obstacle at exactly the right place, but that feels very error-prone and dirty. So if anybody knows a better way to do this, I would like to know!

    By the way, I need this in minecraft versions 1.12 up to 1.14. It is okay if I need different code for each version, as long as I can make it work in each version separately.

  3. @knokko Or you play the BREAK_POTION effect
    Not sure which versions support that, 1.14 does
     
  4. I know I can spawn a splash potion like this (I also found out how to configure the effects), but how do I force it to splash/explode immediately? (That's what I meant with my question)

    This would only display the effect, but not actually give potion effects to surrounding entities, right? The problem is that I need both.
     
  5. Yeah thats right. Anyways these two are the only possibilities I can think of so you either have to do your obstacle trick (barrier e.g) or use the effect and add the potion effects manually

    Just spawn it on the ground, it'll most likely splash instantly.
