TrainCarts

ALERT ZOMG

Plugin: TrainCarts - Linked Minecarts, sign-redstone systems, easy to use and realistic

Version: v1.72.7

Build: 1.5.1 R0.2

Description

This plugin looks for suitable Minecarts and links them together if possible. When two Minecarts are being "linked", the Minecarts will act as one single moving train.

Once carts are successfully linked, an effect is played and their velocity is shared in combination with an individual factor for each Minecart, which is used to remain a steady gap between carts. This gap is adjustable, the force at which this happens as well.

End result: a train! You can move it, make a roller-coaster out of it, split it in half, watch trains collide, whatever you want to do with trains. :)

As for 1.21, it is also possible to safely exit your train by setting an exit offset with a (sideways) push factor for the train. This feature is disabled by default. (only affects dropped items). If you want to display arrival times on signs (see redstone circuit part) you need SignLink, see the downloads on the bottom of the page.

As for 1.35 you can set train properties to make 'special' trains, or to 'finalize' a train

Push-away: Push mobs, players and items away from your trains to keep them running
Everything is configurable, if something proves not to be, I will make it that way

Incompatibilities

If you have another plugin that performs similar Minecart replacement techniques, it is likely that TrainCarts will not function or function poorly. For the 'chunk persistence' part of this plugin, other plugins that unload chunks without firing events result in this feature failing. Minebackup is known for having this problem.

@Gughy14: Go What version of TrainCarts is this? There are permission rules in place, to rule this out/in, see if using /train setpublic true fixes the issue or not.

Hi, as first I've to say I simply love this plugin which is the most suitable for the subway network of my server. When I set up the railway line, using all the sign etc, I (as admin) tested the whole project and it was perfect, all the train arrived on time, etc... The problem came when I opend the railway station at the users, which immediatly started bugging after about 50 block from the station remaining fixed in their cart while the train continued going on. Than, when the next one arrived everyone got killed (as setted) from the train. Now, as soon as that problem didn't occured with an admin (permissions node - '*') is it possbile that users aren't allowed to use the train? Because i saw that they start bugging when they go faster than defaut minecart.

So, i need to fix this problem because in this way the plugin is absolutly unuseful. Thanks for the help, Gughy14

Hi Bergerkiller,

we have problems with the transfer-sign. I made a ticket for this problem. You may could give me a piece of advice how I could fix it. Maybe the syntax has changed since 1.4.7. Our server was shutdown for quit a long time. :-(

Thanks a lot

Regards Marc

@Chaoschaot2342: Go The config.yml is full of headers that describe the options in full detail. Train Properties are all listed on the WIKI.

@jaschahuisman: Go

Then stop providing useless/no technical information and help us to help you. Or alternatively, follow the instructions to the letter (because you must have done something wrong for it not to work) and try again.

Next cool thing: Can you add new plugin for connected boats with inventories? Trains is cool thing to transport resources on land but we don't have any option to intercontinental logistics.

Another cool thing could be implementing TrainCarts to DynaMap
