Description

Better Minecarts

This minecraft mod links up minecarts to form a train-like system.

THIS IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT AND KINDA BROKEN IN SOME WAYS!!

How To Use

  • Place down two minecarts (any type) one block apart from each other on rail blocks (any type).
  • Take a chain in your hand and right click on both minecarts.
  • Repeat the process for a longer train by connecting all minecarts to the ones in front of or behind them.
  • They will now move together!
  • If you wish to unlink a minecart, shift and attack the minecart once, giving you a chain and unlinking it. Alternatively, breaking (no shifting required) a linked minecart will also drop a chain and unlink it.

Features

  • Link minecarts with chains
  • Unlink minecarts by sneaking/attacking or unloading
  • Sync movement between linked minecarts
  • Limit links to 2 per cart, 1 block distance
  • Disable syncing near corners

To-Do

  • Basic linked sync movement
  • Fix corner derailing
  • Fix unlikability of more than two minecarts
  • Fix issue of being able to sit in furnace/chest/etc minecarts
  • Fix issue of being unable to use furnace/chest/etc minecarts
  • Only decrease chain count from inventory when in survival, not creative
  • Fix leader carts going inside blocks on rail
  • When a minecart is derailed, it unlinks
  • Fix unlinkability of chests to furnaces or other types
  • Cap the total train size
  • Minecarts remain linked even after leaving and rejoining game
  • A rendering of a chain between two linked minecarts
  • When a minecart that is linked is broken or shift attacked once, a chain is dropped and unlinked
