@frumple1 Still wont work, try adfly, or mediafire again, it just says the rapidshare expired and takes me to the rapidshare homepage. Please try to fix, im very interested in downloading it, and BTW u did some nice work.
@funkyspyspy Will do. MediaFire keeps removing just that file due to an overzealous copyright filter, so I've uploaded to Rapidshare instead for now. Link is updated in the video description.
@AnonymouslyAgnostic So far, piston trains have proven themselves to be noisy and difficult to build. I also haven't seen any that can move in both directions or turn. Yeah...might be a nice thing to play around with later on, but definitely not for the next version of the station.
@Tehothe12 You can use another program called MCEdit to load your Minecraft save file, and then import the schematics that I provided into your own world. Just google for MCEdit to find the download for it.
Frumple, I have created a booster pack for the stations that include Left/Right turns track schematics and slope schematics. but I still need an underground station schematic,could you give me some pointers.
@gamecube47 I don't understand. Are you looking to make underground schematics for turns and slopes? If you make them match up with straight track schematics (with the stone walls and such) then you should be good to go.
@gamecube47 I've seen that cart detector, but it seems to be based on a bug that could potentially be fixed by Mojang in the future. Instead, I'll probably be using a detector that involves a cart passing through a pressure plate on a fence. I can't remember the original video I saw it from right now, but I might post a video of my own sometime soon showing it in action.
@frumple1 If you look at the crafting recipe of a detector rail it contains a pressure plate.I don't know why you need a slope though,if you can get me the other video that would help
@gamecube47 Thanks for the suggestions. The track schematics are really meant to be used as a guide, and not as a complete solution. Unfortunately, I don't have time to create all the curves and other tracks. Instead, you should be able to create your own curves by placing the track and redstone torches manually where you need it.
I may include more kinds of track schematics in v4.0, but no guarantees.
First of all, the warning sounds on the track only work on elevated and need red stone torches to keep the power rail on
Second you need to add turn parts, its so hard to keep going straight,(example=OH NO, you imported a schematic in front of your soon to be rail line, and the building is really big so you can't fit an underground station there
Third you need the pieces of track, like in between Grassland and Tundra, that raise you up to the elevated track
@tobz5050 No I don't have that texture pack anymore, and it wouldn't be useful to you anyway since Minecraft has updated so much since then. You can learn how to edit the texture files in Minecraft yourself with a simple paint program. Just google it.
@MrYodog123456 Have you tried looking at the link I provided in the video description? That's about as close as you can get with a tutorial, since those images were Renwallz, the original creator of the dispenser.
@Jasestuff123 No, it doesn't. For some reason, around every station, there is a cluster of unpowered rails. There is an easy manual workaround, but it is tedious. This map has worked for me before, so I am sure the reason the rails malfunction has something to do with the update. Am I the only one with this problem?
@Coastergeekperson04 The station itself works in 1.0.0, but some of the track schematics I provided no longer work. I used redstone torches attached to glowstone to power the rails from below, but due to recent minecraft updates, the torches fall off the glowstone, leaving the rails unpowered.
If this is too much of a problem, I might upload fixed versions of the map and schematics, but really I'd rather focus more on v4.0 of the station and other new things.
Okay, so I decided to completely rebuild the station, from scratch. My intention is to make the wiring simpler, and disabling the player from getting into the system and possibly destroying it all.
I got a little improvement for the overflow collection, replace the blocks under the rails with soul sand, which prevents the carts from glitching through the walls in SMP/CMP
I feel as though if you were to change the design just a bit it would not get stuck. Do some tests with raising the dispenser slope up 1 more level or making the top of each dispenser 3 long instead of only 2. This allows more time for the redstone wiring to change back to the off state before the new cart arrives. I may be wrong but its a thought.
@sniperlif3 Yeah, you're right the problem seems to stem from the timing of redstone and the carts. It's just very time-consuming to make one little change to the dispenser, then test it many times to see if it works better or not and repeat. If I ever get around to making a new version of this station, I'll make it a priority to get the dispenser 100% reliable.
Wow. This is amazing. I tried figuring out how it works but i get lost when it comes to linking everything together. Is there a tutorial on all the wiring?
dude amazing you should hop on my server some time i and if you would like help me with redstone basics cause i suck with redstone and we can make one of these amazing the coolest thing i have seen in minecaft
@thislooksfun1 I can import the schematic just fine with the latest MCEdit stable 21. Make sure you update to the latest version, and ensure that Minecraft and MCEdit are never running at the same time.
Any other download links for your map? Mediafire doesn't seem to want to load for me or it's down. Either way i can't check out the awesomeness up close D:
@frumple1 I got it :) Just had to flush my DNS that's all. Thanks for the response though :) And thanks for the map + schematics. Going to be really useful in my project :)
Im trying to implement the minecart storage system, but for some reason when I try to insert a minecart, it will bounce off of the first bay and not work. Any ideas why it doesnt work? Thanks
@Tundrabuddy1 Could you be more specific? Are you trying to recreate Renwallz' dispenser? If you follow the link in the video description, you can see pictures on how to construct the dispenser. Without more details, I can't comment on why your carts would bounce back out.
@frumple1 Well I think I copied your dispenser EXACTLY the same, and on the map that you gave the download for, the dispenser works fine, but when I try to recreate it on my own map, (on a Bukkit server, but with all the same plugins and everything,) the carts will somehow bounce off of the powered rail for the first bay, even though there's nothing there D: Please help. Thanks.
@Tundrabuddy1 Did you import the dispenser into your map using MCEdit or create it by hand? If you imported, there could be invisible carts on the dispenser that would cause the bounce back, so you could try walking through it and breaking those carts. Otherwise, the most likely culprit are your Bukkit plugins, especially ones that modify the behaviour of minecarts or minecart tracks. Try disabling them one by one and see if it makes a difference.
for when the cart is coming out of the dispenser, and the dispenser empty torch comes on, to avoid this happening, you could split the redstone into 2 lanes, 0ne of which is delayed, with an and gate at the end, so it had to be empty for 3 seconds, so the other cart has time to get to the front stop
for the 3 second gap between loading carts, you coulsd use a detector rail and invert the signal so when one is loaded, the booster goes off, ad you could time it so 3 seconds later, it turns on again
Really nice station ive been looking for something like this to help me build better stations and this is by far the best built and explained of all of them.
I was thinking that instead of sending the cart to the next station when the arrival bays are full, what if you put the carts into a circular holding pattern until the next bay is available? I took a look at the stations myself and space seems to make such a thing challenging, but it is possible.
@Coastergeekperson04 It's certainly possible, but have you considered the scenario where you have many carts in a circular holding pattern? You could have all the carts in one track loop, but this greatly increases the chance of cart collision, and the first cart that enters the loop may not necessarily be the cart that gets the next available bay. Alternatively, you could make a whole series of track loops with one cart each, but that would take too much space I would think.
@frumple1 Maybe if all three bays were full, the U-turn switch will automatically operate. I guess the player could always do that themselves though...
@frumple1 Or, when all three bays are full, have the turnaround switch beyond that side of the station automatically activate, so the cart can try arriving on the other side of the station. If the player wanted to skip the station but all three bays are full, though, that could be a problem since they'd be turned around, and then would end up continuing down the main line in the wrong direction. They could hit the turnaround switch again manually, but I find it hard to hit those switches.
Hello, is it possible to connect this with a rail changing system? Because i invented my own design featuring 1 RS NOR Latch per rail, so you wouldn't need more than one rail, 1 button for each station. Thanks
@TheBartmandk You can make an interchange and have the rider press a button to change tracks. Although you can't have pure "lines" like a real system, it put the rider in control and makes it easy to get from anywhere to anywhere. I'd like to see the design you made, though.
@Coastergeekperson04 Okay thanks. My desing is actually quite simple. 1st button deactivates all the RS NOR Latches. The 2nd button deactivates all RS NOR Latches except the first which it activates thus making the 1st of the tracks turn so it gets to the 2nd track. The 3rd one deactivates all RS NOR Latches except the first 2 RS NOR Latches thus making the 1st and the 2nd of the tracks turn so it gets to the 3rd track. So you need 1 RS NOR Latch for 2 tracks, 2 Latches for 3 tracks, etc. Enjoy!
@jouvkeith There is unfortunately no more space for that one extra piece of rail. Adding the rail means shifting over the nearby dispenser or other components, and that wrecks the overall symmetry of the station. I'll probably have to think up some other solution, or just wait for Notch to fix the bug.
@frumple1 well, i spent about four hours figuring out how this thing works exactly. Absolutely brilliant! i did some tinkering that got rid of the fall damage but your right it does add one more space to each side making it look a little off. i think by shifting the extra tiles along the exterior to the center of the building might break up the pattern in an architecture in an ascetically pleasing manner. still, its your baby, let me know what you think.
@jouvkeith If I do ever make a new version of the station (I'm pretty busy IRL now), I would probably just build it all up from scratch again rather than make a few tweaks here and there. This way I'll have a bit more freedom in keeping the architecture aesthetically pleasing. I'll also wait until the 1.8 adventure update to start any designs, since there is always the possibility that the update could change minecart or redstone behaviour in some ways.
@TheRuggedRich I'll probably only put in pistons if they actually add functionality to the station, or do something better than a non-piston method. So far, I haven't found any such use for pistons in the station. I'm not going to put in pistons just because they are new and shiny. :)
idk if this is a glitch or something, but when when i press the button for a cart to come into a bay (the dispenser is full at the time) the signal for the empty dispenser lights up. When i try to fill the dispenser, the carts just come out in the overflow thing. (btw this is in a multiplayer world that)
@ckeroable Could you be more specific? When the cart is requested, are the carts in the dispenser moving up one slot? It is normal for the empty signal to light up briefly because the dispenser needs a little time to reorganize the carts.
Also, if the 1st dispenser slot after the overflow switch is occupied, the full indicator will be lit, and the switch will engage. Sometimes the indicator will get stuck in the on state, so try manually pushing a cart through that 1st slot to fix it.
@frumple1 Well when I press the request button, absolutely nothing happens (as far I can see) and the empty dispenser signal lights up. If you could, come on my server (message me if you will and i'll message the ip back to you).
@frumple1 I guess someone pulled the flush minecarts lever? Probably it.First time usage, the dispenser full light will be lit, because when frumple1 export the schametics, the minecarts weren't imported.That cause the "Dispenser Full" to be lit.
@ckeroable if you placed the station using world edit some of the junctions may not be facing the right direction so you havr to replace them so they're facing the correct way.
@Zoomarang243 I'm sorry I don't understand your question. There are some basic track schematics included in the download that you can use to connect your stations, or you just make your tracks.
I have a suggestion: instead of having the overflow go to a specific area, why not have them sent to the next station? That way a station no station will have an excess of minecarts. This was how I modified the north/south station to send extra carts to the next station: i.imgur(dot)com/Pwu4c.jpg However this may cause problems if another cart is coming up the hill.
@ThickMcRunFast37 It's not a good idea to have empty carts go on to the next station because if the next station is far enough away such that its map chunk is not loaded, then the cart will behave oddly. Sometimes the cart will continue as normal, other times it will simply disappear. Or even worse, the cart will stop on the track and block any other incoming carts. If your stations are close enough together, then your approach should be okay.

@robxu9 It's definitely a bug. Before 1.7 was released, players did not take damage when travelling in a cart going around a corner.

@frumple1 oh. whoops. seems like I misread instead. ^_^" sorry.

For 1.7.2+, we can now use pistons. Are you going to upgrade the station to use pistons?
robxu9 6 months ago
@robxu9 I will only use pistons if they actually provide a significant benefit to the station, such as smaller space usage or improved usability.
frumple1 6 months ago
@frumple1 On my stations, I drastically simplified arrival and departure with pistons. I also made a better pez system.

Any other download links for your map? Mediafire doesn't seem to want to load for me or it's down. Either way i can't check out the awesomeness up close D:
Thanks :)

@lukkychukky Mediafire seems to up and running from my end. I'd say try again and if that doesn't work, try using a different browser.

Im trying to implement the minecart storage system, but for some reason when I try to insert a minecart, it will bounce off of the first bay and not work. Any ideas why it doesnt work? Thanks
Tundrabuddy1 6 months ago
@Tundrabuddy1 Could you be more specific? Are you trying to recreate Renwallz' dispenser? If you follow the link in the video description, you can see pictures on how to construct the dispenser. Without more details, I can't comment on why your carts would bounce back out.
frumple1 6 months ago
@frumple1 Well I think I copied your dispenser EXACTLY the same, and on the map that you gave the download for, the dispenser works fine, but when I try to recreate it on my own map, (on a Bukkit server, but with all the same plugins and everything,) the carts will somehow bounce off of the powered rail for the first bay, even though there's nothing there D: Please help. Thanks.
Tundrabuddy1 6 months ago
@Tundrabuddy1 Did you import the dispenser into your map using MCEdit or create it by hand? If you imported, there could be invisible carts on the dispenser that would cause the bounce back, so you could try walking through it and breaking those carts. Otherwise, the most likely culprit are your Bukkit plugins, especially ones that modify the behaviour of minecarts or minecart tracks. Try disabling them one by one and see if it makes a difference.
frumple1 6 months ago
@frumple1 I built it by myself, and I also do believe its my plugins. Anyways, thanks for all the help and everything! =)

for when the cart is coming out of the dispenser, and the dispenser empty torch comes on, to avoid this happening, you could split the redstone into 2 lanes, 0ne of which is delayed, with an and gate at the end, so it had to be empty for 3 seconds, so the other cart has time to get to the front stop

for the 3 second gap between loading carts, you coulsd use a detector rail and invert the signal so when one is loaded, the booster goes off, ad you could time it so 3 seconds later, it turns on again

@godzilltrain This is a great idea, and surprisingly no one else has suggested before. Thanks! :)

I was thinking that instead of sending the cart to the next station when the arrival bays are full, what if you put the carts into a circular holding pattern until the next bay is available? I took a look at the stations myself and space seems to make such a thing challenging, but it is possible.
Coastergeekperson04 7 months ago
@Coastergeekperson04 It's certainly possible, but have you considered the scenario where you have many carts in a circular holding pattern? You could have all the carts in one track loop, but this greatly increases the chance of cart collision, and the first cart that enters the loop may not necessarily be the cart that gets the next available bay. Alternatively, you could make a whole series of track loops with one cart each, but that would take too much space I would think.
frumple1 6 months ago
@frumple1 Maybe if all three bays were full, the U-turn switch will automatically operate. I guess the player could always do that themselves though...
Coastergeekperson04 6 months ago
@frumple1 Or, when all three bays are full, have the turnaround switch beyond that side of the station automatically activate, so the cart can try arriving on the other side of the station. If the player wanted to skip the station but all three bays are full, though, that could be a problem since they'd be turned around, and then would end up continuing down the main line in the wrong direction. They could hit the turnaround switch again manually, but I find it hard to hit those switches.

Hello, is it possible to connect this with a rail changing system? Because i invented my own design featuring 1 RS NOR Latch per rail, so you wouldn't need more than one rail, 1 button for each station. Thanks
TheBartmandk 7 months ago
@TheBartmandk You can make an interchange and have the rider press a button to change tracks. Although you can't have pure "lines" like a real system, it put the rider in control and makes it easy to get from anywhere to anywhere. I'd like to see the design you made, though.
Coastergeekperson04 7 months ago
@Coastergeekperson04 Okay thanks. My desing is actually quite simple. 1st button deactivates all the RS NOR Latches. The 2nd button deactivates all RS NOR Latches except the first which it activates thus making the 1st of the tracks turn so it gets to the 2nd track. The 3rd one deactivates all RS NOR Latches except the first 2 RS NOR Latches thus making the 1st and the 2nd of the tracks turn so it gets to the 3rd track. So you need 1 RS NOR Latch for 2 tracks, 2 Latches for 3 tracks, etc. Enjoy!
TheBartmandk 7 months ago
love this concept.
but i had a thought i felt may be useful.
would adding one strait rail to the bottom of that slope solve the half-heart damage issue without harming your overall design?
jouvkeith 7 months ago
@jouvkeith There is unfortunately no more space for that one extra piece of rail. Adding the rail means shifting over the nearby dispenser or other components, and that wrecks the overall symmetry of the station. I'll probably have to think up some other solution, or just wait for Notch to fix the bug.
frumple1 7 months ago
@frumple1 well, i spent about four hours figuring out how this thing works exactly. Absolutely brilliant! i did some tinkering that got rid of the fall damage but your right it does add one more space to each side making it look a little off. i think by shifting the extra tiles along the exterior to the center of the building might break up the pattern in an architecture in an ascetically pleasing manner. still, its your baby, let me know what you think.
jouvkeith 7 months ago
@jouvkeith If I do ever make a new version of the station (I'm pretty busy IRL now), I would probably just build it all up from scratch again rather than make a few tweaks here and there. This way I'll have a bit more freedom in keeping the architecture aesthetically pleasing. I'll also wait until the 1.8 adventure update to start any designs, since there is always the possibility that the update could change minecart or redstone behaviour in some ways.

@spongegut123 Press Win + R, type "%APPDATA%" (minus quotes), go to ".minecraft/saves/" the world folder goes in there.

@ThickMcRunFast37 thanks it worked :) only downside is it lags when i call a minecart and that makes it difficult to get in :(

are you going to be doing a new version that uses pistons? as i love your stations and would love to see them used in there somehow :)
TheRuggedRich 7 months ago
@TheRuggedRich I'll probably only put in pistons if they actually add functionality to the station, or do something better than a non-piston method. So far, I haven't found any such use for pistons in the station. I'm not going to put in pistons just because they are new and shiny. :)

subwaydude1234 7 months ago
idk if this is a glitch or something, but when when i press the button for a cart to come into a bay (the dispenser is full at the time) the signal for the empty dispenser lights up. When i try to fill the dispenser, the carts just come out in the overflow thing. (btw this is in a multiplayer world that)
ckeroable 7 months ago
@ckeroable Could you be more specific? When the cart is requested, are the carts in the dispenser moving up one slot? It is normal for the empty signal to light up briefly because the dispenser needs a little time to reorganize the carts.
Also, if the 1st dispenser slot after the overflow switch is occupied, the full indicator will be lit, and the switch will engage. Sometimes the indicator will get stuck in the on state, so try manually pushing a cart through that 1st slot to fix it.
frumple1 7 months ago
@frumple1 Well when I press the request button, absolutely nothing happens (as far I can see) and the empty dispenser signal lights up. If you could, come on my server (message me if you will and i'll message the ip back to you).
ckeroable 7 months ago
@frumple1 I guess someone pulled the flush minecarts lever? Probably it.First time usage, the dispenser full light will be lit, because when frumple1 export the schametics, the minecarts weren't imported.That cause the "Dispenser Full" to be lit.
funkyspyspy 7 months ago
@ckeroable if you placed the station using world edit some of the junctions may not be facing the right direction so you havr to replace them so they're facing the correct way.

What train tracks should i use for the station?
Zoomarang243 7 months ago
@Zoomarang243 I'm sorry I don't understand your question. There are some basic track schematics included in the download that you can use to connect your stations, or you just make your tracks.
frumple1 7 months ago
I have a suggestion: instead of having the overflow go to a specific area, why not have them sent to the next station? That way a station no station will have an excess of minecarts. This was how I modified the north/south station to send extra carts to the next station: i.imgur(dot)com/Pwu4c.jpg However this may cause problems if another cart is coming up the hill.
ThickMcRunFast37 8 months ago
@ThickMcRunFast37 It's not a good idea to have empty carts go on to the next station because if the next station is far enough away such that its map chunk is not loaded, then the cart will behave oddly. Sometimes the cart will continue as normal, other times it will simply disappear. Or even worse, the cart will stop on the track and block any other incoming carts. If your stations are close enough together, then your approach should be okay.
