  • Launchpads are the means by which rockets are launched from world to world. As such, an assembled rocket is required to use one. It is not required to use a rocket to travel to Starbase 3001, however, one becomes required to visit LUP worlds off of it. Club Station Alpha has a teleporter, although you may use a rocket once you arrive. Launchpads are also non-existent within minigames, as most are set within the worlds themselves and are not considered a world despite their having a separate instance to the game world.
  • Launchpads are a mechanic featured most in Splatoon's Hero Mode. They launch the player from one platform to another. This can be done by pressing the ZL button on the Wii U GamePad.
  • (As written in the N in-game help:) "Make sure you've got a landing planned or it may end up being a one-way trip." When you come into contact with a launchpad, it launches in a set direction (depending on which way the launchpad is facing). This can be used to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, speed you up, or kill you when you smash into objects too quickly from the launchpad's added burst of speed. * 45-1: Inca There is one known trick for the launchpad. You can find out about that trick here. Another well known use for the lauch pads is using it to teleport in some cases.

When you come into contact with a launchpad, it launches in a set direction (depending on which way the launchpad is facing). This can be used to reach otherwise inaccessible areas, speed you up, or kill you when you smash into objects too quickly from the launchpad's added burst of speed. Another useful feature of launchpads is that you may bolt into one at any speed and you will not be killed, as you would by smashing hard into other terrain objects. Many levels take advantage of this, by forcing you to aim at hard-to-reach launchpads when falling. Also, some levels may use launchpads as a guide of some sort to help you get to where you're going, like in 45-1: Inca. * 45-1: Inca There is one known trick for the launchpad.
