SplinecartUnlocked
by _GodlyCow
SplinecartUnlocked lets minecarts ride smooth, curving tracks that players build themselves between two Track Ties blocks.
What it does
Tracks are laid between two Track Ties blocks and follow a cubic-spline curve rather than straight runs and 90-degree turns. Tracks can bank, dip, twist and climb. Standard minecarts travel along them forwards and backwards and stop cleanly, and any cart carrying the entity tag splinecartunlocked:carts can ride them as well. Client-side options can be changed in-game.
The mod is a continuation of the Splinecart mod by FoundationGames, which the author ported and rebuilt for Minecraft 26.2 on Fabric. The gameplay design, code and art assets were originally created by FoundationGames, who receives the credit. The mod is published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2, with the 1.0.1+26.2 file as the latest build, released 2026-09-12. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Its license is the MIT License, and the code is open source.
Key features
Curved tracks
Spline tracks connect two Track Ties blocks and take natural curves, with banks, dips and twists.
Automatic minecart support
Standard minecarts follow the track in both directions and halt cleanly at a stop.
Three track types
A standard track has natural friction, a Chain Drive Track pulls carts at constant speed even uphill, and a Magnetic Track speeds or slows carts according to redstone signal strength.
Inversions and banks
Riders stay correctly positioned through loops and inverted sideways sections without suffocating in supporting blocks.
