TIFU trying to make my daughter a "teleport room"

TLDR: if you set up a command block teleport room for your five year old on a server, DONT USE FLOOR PLATES. Because a singular cat will just RUIN your day.

Biggest parenting minecraft fail today.

So im setting up the family server for my kids- attempting to do some more advanced things with command blocks, setting up cute little teleport pads so me and my daughter can visit each others cities faster etc.

Problem is, im an idiot so i tied all the teleport switches to floor plates. (switches you jump on)

Some of you may know where this is going.

So Anyways- im almost done setting up about 25 teleport blocks in a gilded underground secret room when:

a random cat spawns in the teleport master control room.

Uh oh. Guess it was just a PINCH too close to a village.

The cat and I stared each other down for a second.

Miraculously i actually managed to sneak right up on the cat the 1st time.

I then frantically typed "/kill"

Hit enter

Obviously, I Immediately died. I killed myself. Good job, me.

D'oh.

So I Crawled back to said room a good 50 times, and each time i approached the cat i got teleported a zillion miles away to a random destination because the (now spooked) cat was running around stomping on all the teleport buttons and the whole server immediately goes glitchy mcBONKERS and tosses me to a random faraway land every time i even get CLOSE to the teleport room.

This also rendered my whole BASE unusable.

Frustrated, i dive into the internet. None of the solutions work on a java edition family server setup. They are all bedrock only.

I finally FINALLY dig up the server config file, disable command blocks, kill the cat, log out, re-enable command blocks. Save, go back in. WHEW!

Spent the rest of the night changing all the floor plates to buttons

Boy oh boy did my programmer wife have a good laugh when i told her what I had done.
