Minecart Railroads in Our World

We haven't changed much, just that you can go faster and decide where to go!

Using our Custom Minecart System

• Right Click on a track to spawn a minecart!
• Minecarts should disappear after you exit them.
• Use the regular booster rails in multiples to launch carts up to 400% faster than standard speeds.
• Minecarts will stop at intersections. Continue simply by looking in the desired direction and pressing forward.
• To slow your carts, use the track examples below.
• Minecarts will automatically slow down before curves or slopes to avoid derailing or crashing into upward slope block. Carts speed up again after curve or slope.
• Minecarts will push entities on a collision course out of the way to avoid collision.
• You can start/stop your minecart in the midst of a journey by LEFT clicking the air. You can even face the other direction and click again to start the opposite direction!

Steering

To navigate intersections, your cart will stop at any intersection. Simply look the direction you want to go, and press "W" to go!

EasyCarts has no slowdown blocks. If you want to slow down your cart on a certain part of the track and then boost it again, build the following rails:
