Mods/TrainCarts

TrainCarts is a plugin developed by Bergerkiller and features everything related to Trains of minecarts. It was initially developed to link multiple carts together, creating a moving train. The physics got improved as much as possible, with the final result: A single moving entity. The development of this plugin eventually lead to implementing a lot of features, including sign-based actions, commands, cart properties and a broad API other plugins can implement to add their own features.

Trains
The first thing you will notice is that you can now connect carts together to form infinitely long trains. Every cart in this train is called a member, all members combined are called a group. Every member communicates with the group, so when the front cart hits a block, it stops the entire group. When someone pushes a cart, this pushing force is shared among all members. Therefore long trains are less responsive than short trains.

Connecting carts is done without commands, all you have to do is make two minecarts collide.

Path finding
Cart path finding is added, which allows you to send trains across the world without ever having to change something. This is very useful for automated stations and during cave mining expeditions. Of course, it doesn't toggle all tracks automatically, that could cause strange situations. You have to manually mark the tracks that can be switched using switcher signs. Destination signs set the destinations trains can travel to.

Signs
Sign systems are added to simplify the track logic of your stations. It allows you to destroy and eject carts, transfer items, stop and launch trains and much much more. Read more...
