MrFroZen23's Extremely Simple Minecart Passenger Detector

[tigerwind20]

I'm finding this sorter to be inconsistent in SMP on v1.2.3 . I've been finding the speed of the minecart makes a difference.

[08bartu]

Will it detect if a mob is on the cart?

[mapleman710]

@08bartu yh



[seriousLP]

@08bartu yes.

[Ichiz98]

So now i can make a minecart road and if i miss the minecart, it will just come back to me!

GENIAOUS!

[GettinJiggy98]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

ive watched every Sethbling video  my life is at end!!!!!

[iCraft3]

WOW

[MrChuchzilla]

Also I suppose there's no way to change the direction of the t-junction.

[mapleman710]

@MrChuchzilla yes



[MrChuchzilla]

If the detector block is on an iron block this doesn't work for some reason. Is the any way to invert the direction?

[Tycha0]

Nice :)

[MrVijfhoek]

This is *very* unreliable on SMP, because of lag not triggering the track in time

[gamecube47]

Is this based off a glitch.

It's import I het feed back quickly for frumple's 4.0 station which is coming soon

To see 3.0 search "MRT station 3.0 minecraft

I will be releasing my booster pack soon with schematics (tracks+entrances)

[BillyBobsEel]

For me the empty cart triggers the detwecor so it doesn't work.

.

[jsiff93624]

you could make an ongoing loop that claims to take the passenger to a cool place, but then the track switches and drops them in lava >:)

[FPSMinecraft1]

nice



[MineCraftBuilderHD]

This works about 50% of the time for me the rail that gets activated by the detector rail just randomly goes were it wants to

[DutchDansing]

@Sethbling , can you make a video that shows bugs and stuff in MC full release?

[sethbling]

@DutchDansing I'm working on a video like that right now.

[onewhosepic]

I made an exact copy of this, but it doesn't seem to work for me?

[MrFroZen23]

@onewhosepic Screenshot?

[greerrr]

Is the dip necessary? I can't imagine how that effects the switching behavior.

[sethbling]

@greerrr The dip is critical. Without the dip, the minecart will trigger the detector rail regardless of whether the cart is occupied or not.

[mascheinberg]

SETHBLING? WHY U REMOVE VIDEO?!

[ajilebanana]

Ggndf wop wop wop wop

[edwardLongman]

Why do you need the slope?

[CoffeeMug444]

why do people always use sandstone maps now? it used to be grass......

[dinxton2]

@CoffeeMug444 Because it doesn't snow.

[EC17MEISTER]

@CoffeeMug444

It's a pleasant colour, nice and bright and no animals interrupting you.

[Sneak4000]

How did noone think of this before?

[TheRealSuperSonic125]

seth I love you in the most none gay way.I love all of your videos!

[InAFruitCup]

will pigs in mine carts be detected?

[xUtuber117x]

@InAFruitCup ya

[RiiBzxX]

It works in 1.8 :D Just posted a video response as proof :D

[itzmehessel]

hey sethbling, remember that sandcannon thingy you build a while back? think you can use something similair to make a player fly upwards? 'cause i made your sandcannon thing go upwards on my server and i just fell through the block of sand, i keep thinking on how to solve it but the only thing i can come up with are minecarts on the sand block so? maybe you are smart enough to give it another try?

if you want to see my version of your cannon i'll give you my IP-adress(no,i do not use hamachi)

[Myrmidal]

@itzmehessel I personally don't think it will be possible as the sand blocks when falling seem to lack collision and behave strangely, such as breaking on torches and such. there is a way to to make a TNT device to launch a player upwards... Involving a swastika of TNT and water with a pressure plate. But as its been so long since I saw a video i wont be able to give you a link or name.

[Mgis90]

@itzmehessel hey I found that a while ago and its called launchpad or human launcher, check this v=N_JsNZ4U9LQ but its not the original but that design is really good

[Mgis90]

@itzmehessel oh sorry here is the original v=kR4w4RwVNOU

[itzmehessel]

@Mgis90 thanks :)

[TheNoob131]

OMG u make awesome videos!

[braklinath]

@Obzzarver this is the 1.9 pre-release 6

[MinecraftIndy74]

@LeithL7 Oh, leave him alone.

[BetaToad]

OH MAN IT IS TOO SIMPLE!!!

[ElTeleron]

Why does the cart have to be travelling at full speed?

[Obzzarver]

I dont get it.

For me in 1.8.1 this is not the case.

downhill unmanned carts stil trigger detector rails.

[DoctorRedstone]

@Obzzarver he is in pre-release 6, redstone behaves different there

[RiiBzxX]

@Obzzarver Check the version number *facepalm*

[Obzzarver]

@RiiBzxX I am fully aware. And 2 other people have allready said the exact same thing you did.. *facepalm*?

However I will take blame for not specifying that I was wondering whether this was a 1.9.x feature or not, as some people in this very reply section has claimed this existed since forever.

[RiiBzxX]

@Obzzarver I know that 2 (3) ppl have told you. That's why I decided to help spam your inbox.

[RiiBzxX]

@Obzzarver It actually works in 1.8.1, I just posted a video response as proof...

[jaymax97]

will zombies trigger it

[DoctorBananaSlug]

but will it blend?



[DoctorRedstone]

@DoctorBananaSlug this is getting old

[98JTG]

I just got this awesome idea of a minecart station now :D

thank you Seth :)

[itzmehessel]

hey sethbling, remember that sandcannon thingy you build a while back? think you can use something similair to make a player fly upwards? 'cause i made your sandcannon thing go upwards on my server and i just fell through the block of sand, i keep thinking on how to solve it but i can't come up with anything, so maybe you are smart enough to give it another try?

if you want to see my version of your cannon i'll give you my IP-adress(no,i do not use hamachi)

[LordAtrocities]

You could incorp this concept into your subway station.

[Georgelangham]

This only work in 1.9 or is it something that has worked for a while but only just been noticed?

[RSSDFTW]

@Georgelangham

It has worked since 1.5 and apparently sethbling just noticed it, though many people who do more things with rails knew about it from the start! =]

[deathsmileyinc]

@ThePrimeeee OKIDOKI MISTER MOJANG EMPLOYEE

[Trumavarium]

Perfect.

[TiesThatBind513]

That's smart

[Zuaiko]

If you are returning will the track change direction?

Z

[livedandletdie]

@Zuaiko no. Cart detection is usually just one way if you don't have more than one detector rail but it is modifiable to be a 3 to 2 T junction but not a 3 to 3 T junction. If you put 2 detector rails on it next to the switchtrack, you can have a 3 to 2 T junction down to Right Right to Up left to up and down to left(unmanned) Left to right. Too bad there isn't right to left and down to left (manned).

[NerdyStarProductions]

would this be considered a potential glitch that they might patch?

[mclmatty]

@NerdyStarProductions I hope they take this bug into consideration as a feature just like BUD's

[cheif6699]

@NerdyStarProductions it isnt a glitch

[MsCreeper97]

works in 1.8.1?

[callumocool]

Would you be able to control which direction the unoccupied/occupied minecart goes?

[craftbench]

@callumocool yes

[callumocool]

@craftbench how?

[craftbench]

@callumocool you place the detector rail then the normal rail and which ever way you want empty carts to go you do that line first because then the corner piece is set to go that way, then lay the track for the player cart to go and it will only switch when you go over the detector rail. hope that explains it :P

[mascheinberg]

So sethbling. You basically created a mine cart trap to fool anybody. They send a mine cart down and see nothing happens, so they go on in. But when they do it, you could send them into lava...

Anybody else getting ideas?

[TheWillyt1200]

@mascheinberg

>:)

[MinecraftExpertDE]

This is very old :S

[The997hextor]

Hey why not make a loop , so when it gets away from you it comes back

[essamata]

i use to do that with alpha but with stone pressure plates and a minecart booster right next to it xD

[MrTripleCC]

is it possible to make an improved hungry, hungry, hippos game with this?

[BlackAddictz]

@sethbling Does it need to be sloped?

[casper5314]

i want to ask you some questions about this very nice cool and compact passenger road

1: can i use it in smp 1.8.1?

2 can i use it in singleplay 1.8.1?

3 make a vid about an alarm system :)

ps i can make an alarm system myself but you always give it that little something :)

please respond.

[Professorology27]

@casper5314 no this inly works in 1.9 prerelease 6

[TeamZimL]

@casper5314 Yes to numbers 1 and 2 but not sure about three :)

_Evolve

[5tingr4y]

so thats kinda bug-using, right? :)

[Subterram1]

@5tingr4y No.

[Davve941018]

@5tingr4y No?

[5tingr4y]

@Davve941018 of course it is :)

cuz it is intended that the detector rail activetesit even with an unoccupied minecraft cuz if it was intended, it would work with a flat or an uphill detector rail as well.

[ratchetclank32]

Cool, perfect for an Adventure Map or a Minecarft station (if somebody is in the Minecarft,it will go straight a way back, and if nobody is in the Minecart,it will storage). Easy going. :)

ps: Nice Creeper you have there :D

[MASTURCHEEF001]

@ratchetclank32 Yes, that would be awesome.

[SH4D0SKU11]

Make something related to the piston motor!

[MrJason005]

and i thought that there was redstone under the detector rail...

[Duker89]

Well it's not that weird it wasn't discovered earlier since it's such a weird corner-case glitch.

[teapoted]

@Duker89 It was discovered earlier, I have a video on this that's several months old =P

[187Ady187]

wow that is simple! Thanks guys, subbed to MrFrozen23 :D Keep up the Good work Awesome community.

[fremmenista]

horrible horrible touch screen keyboard. tomorrow. not tomorroq. double post to correct my spelling

[fremmenista]

oh man... how this makes me want to dig out my backed up, pre 1.8 files to see my rail system on my old worlds. sooo doing that tomorroq!

[MagicCatPaul]

Will carts with chests be detected?

[sethbling]

@MagicCatPaul Storage minecarts act just like regular unoccupied minecarts. Furnace minecarts have their own weird behavior because they slow down on non-powered rail.

[Gunbardo]

Cool, found that my minecart station worked again and with this improved detection system!!!!

[kalsikum]

genius idea!

[LoluskPoo]

so mr frozen didnt come up with this idea.. thelamas408 did

[frylad1]

will storage carts go to the ocupied side or unocupied side

[dog7156]

Oh my God, an ad longer than the video.

[trinity4life368]

SMOSH COMMERCIAL!!

[MrCooljob6]

wow it's so simple I now feel like a dumbass. lol

[TCCflow]

You deserve more subscribers



[onecommentaccount]

Actually I'm more impressed with how you powered the rail at 0:50. Didn't know it worked from there.

[Egrodo1]

@onecommentaccount agreed.

[Owhenu]

WHY ARE THERE GIANT CREEPERS?!?!

[krystian1333]

How do you map a flat world? Is it a mod?

[5maralax5]

@krystian1333 u can use mcedit, an external program used to edit worlds, or just download it off someone.

[atvatv12]

Couldnt you also use this as a trap, maybe have it look like the ride is going to be safe, but when you ride it, it takes you somewhere else, maybe lava?

[MineCraftFish1]

When did MrFoZen23 come up with this because I made this to on my old crappy channel...

/watch?v=CVRA9XueZtw



[sethbling]

@MineCraftFish1 I don't know. But you have my full permission to feel good about yourself :)

[SkaterNicko123]

@MineCraftFish1 Rofl... who cares?

[whowants2KN0W]

Ive been using similar concept for awhile, the only difference is it sends the player cart going forward and the empty to the left.

[austinowns0331]

Why does there have to be a slope?

[sethbling]

@austinowns0331 On a flat or uphill detector rail, both occupied and unoccupied minecarts will trigger the rail.

[rebootedsharpshooter]

Awesome... nuff said.

[Frogfish999]

Was that a creeper at the end??!?

[maxdeathlore]

@Frogfish999 yeah he has a creeper statue. You can see it in a previous video. :)

[supergreatsuper]

This could be used for a trap by putting a chest near the end where the cart goes without a passenger and hiding the other path and using pistons to open the path when the detector rail is ridden on and then they fall into a pit

[prankster855]

like this comment quick or it'll drown with others please hope you are my destiny...

[KUngFUandroid]

MrFroZen23 has come up with a great minecart sorter. Thanks for getting the word out seth.

[Xoid97]

I feel dumb this is so easy.

[smatteringofapplause]

Obviously, it pays to refresh Youtube on a whim!

Neat trick, never thought of that! (I may use it in my SP world's tram system!)

[jman3267]

Does it not work on a flat surface?

[monopoly2121]

@jman3267 No, the pressure rail has to be on a slope because if it's flat it will trigger to every minecart, not just the ones that have things in it.

[Uyvids]

Lol

[sonoftunk]

Awesome!



[3goodplans]

Me Gusta.

[v000000000000v]

how come no one had think of that before..

[Ramiel4]

Great!

[spulet43]

I wonder how big of an explosions those creepers would make



[SuperEddieFromRoblox]

That'll be good so that any people can't get on the cart fast enough the carts can be incinerated.

[stalin45kgn]

дебилы

[Heplooner]

Oh, that's smart.

[xKarvey]

8th!!!

[TheSchamBurger]

under ten club

[theChickensaur01]

Thanks for showing me this! I'll probably use it on a minecart transit I'm working on.

[WilbosWorld]

Awesomeness

[itsmeevry1]

oh wow....can build a nice looking station now, no more of the fencegate pressure plate thing

:D

[legostpaction]

Brilliant :D
