Minecart Mania!

Good news everyone! I have a great plugin to tell you about, it's called Minecart Mania.

It adds a new mechanics for everyone to work with when dealing with transportation. My minecart station would not work without it. The biggest advantage we have is we no longer require the use of booster carts to make carts go faster. We now use control blocks that are placed under a track. The plugin also adds an option (which is enabled right now) to remove all friction on tracks, so the cart will not slow down over time.

With this plugin, you can now build an efficient railway system. The amount of operations and features it adds is truly amazing. Here is a link to the plugin's wiki that explains most configurations. Sign controls, control blocks, storage carts, switching, redstone wiring, the list just keeps going. Oh and automated farming is also enabled.

Here is a video that give practical examples on how to use all the features. The narrator is dull, but the video is very complete.

I will try my very best to help anyone that has questions, but keep in mind i'm no expert yet.

Let your imagination go wild with this. Also, I encourage everyone to share their work here, you may inspire other builders.

I'm also open to suggestions and feedback. You think we should re-add friction in the config? Auto framing makes it too easy? Let us know here what you think.

Enjoy.

That's excellent, i'm opening it up to everyone with the information (that you probably found beforehand) they need to use it.

Care to share some of your builds?
