Forkcart
Forkcart is a Fabric mod for minecart tracks that adds new track types, new track ties and comparator output from ties, so players can build more varied rail layouts.
What it does
Track ties are placed in pairs to lay out a section of track: place one tie, then a second where the section should end. A tie can go on any face of a block, sideways or upside down included, and it turns to face wherever the player is looking when it is set down. A tie can be rotated by right-clicking it, and connecting ties one after another extends the track.
Forkcart introduces chainlift and station track styles, plus invisible ties and switch ties as extra tie types. Comparator output from a tie signals when a cart is on the segment ahead. Forkcart is open source under the MIT License and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Fabric API is required. Files target 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, with the latest 1.20.1 file dated 2024-10-23.
Key features
Chainlift and station track
Track types for chainlifts and stations extend the rail blocks available for minecart layouts.
Invisible and switch ties
Ties can be placed invisibly, or as switch ties that change the route a cart follows.
Comparator output
A tie gives a comparator signal when a cart is on the upcoming track segment, so redstone circuits can respond to carts.
Facing placement
Placed track ties turn to face the direction the player is looking, and can be rotated afterward by right-clicking.
