Minecraft 1.5 minecart station with empty cart return, no bug boosters or pressure plates.

This station design uses none of the old style bug based boosters, nor does it use wood/stone pressure plates- it uses powered rails and detector rails to do it's dirty work (and a good number of redstone torches, dust and repeaters naturally :)).

It should send all empty carts back to the dispenser, and never send a player off into the "back-stage".

The "corkscrew dispenser" is based on a design by figpetus (original post's on reddit, but he posted an improved version since: http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/guzzn/updated_powered_rail_minecar...)

As this video shows, it's still not perfect, but I'm trying to work out the kinks :p

@1xtremekiller1 Sorry, I do try to clean up the sound in these videos a bit but I'm not that great at it.

Real cool. But how did you get the torches to count down like that? And did you use the same detector program ad your other video?

Check my tutorial please!

I was working on it hard : )

@Ferentix Yeah, thats what I did for my minecart station, check it out on my channel.

i despise the texture pack (making my eyes bleed)

@RobCob It isn't really, you just need to make sure that the two detector rails are the right distance apart that the first goes off before the second comes on if the cart's empty but both come on if it's full :). A little trial and error when I made my first one (well, second, but the first was unreliable) and I can pretty much just use the same design each time. The redstone stuff is just an AND gate, introducing only 2 ticks delay. There's an extra rail after the 2nd detector to compensate.

@Ferentix That must be some pretty accurate timing :P
