Hey man, nice mod, totally adds some missing stuff to the game. But before I campaign for Celeron to put this in Minetest, I'd suggest a few features :)
-Collision detection: Collision detection is simply MINEsential for this mod, especially as the Minecraft one HAS that. And, in my opinion, it would add some more life to the carts that's currently desperately missing. At the moment, the carts are good but pretty lifeless. Oh and don't forget your monorails mod has CD also! So why not this, considering this is several times more popular?
-Sitting in the cart: I'm not a fan of having to dig 3 tall tunnel to take in cart-riders without being blindfolded all the way. And anyway, the MC one has this no? And MT is meant to be a substitute for MC no? So plz do this simple thing.
-Cargo carts: This is something that your excellent monorails mod has. And it's gonna look cool also. And (here it comes!!!) MC has this.
-A way to control which way to turn at switches: It's not nice having to either have no switches or a quasi-switch with brake rails and a sign saying "mine ur cat her n plac it wher u wont"(sigh guess I just gave you that idea :D) And also MC DOES NOT HAVE THIS :D
-Y-Switches: Krock's fork of your mod (boost_cart) demonstrates this in texture form. However, with said switching controlling, you can actually make practical use of this. Goto the last sentence of the previous feature request
-A way to "push" the cart when you're on it: Many a minecart I've lost to not being able to get in in time. So I ask, please, please, PLEASE implement this as this is VERY frustrating. You could, you know, like have the player on board face the direction he/she wants to go and point at the cart inside and punch..
-Diagonal rails: Making continuous corners for a diagonal section of rail looks unsightly and also Minecraft Classic (more well known as Manic Digger) has them. Although I know Celeron should have done this, he probably didn't because of the absence of carts. Now, with carts, you can add the appeal of this mod compared to MC's default cart implementation and thus help increase the number of ppl coming to MT with this :D
PLZ respond and add these features Please :)
And sorry if my post is rather confusing or unstructured :) or even offensive :O AND PLEASE CORRECT ANY MISTAKE!!!!
EDIT: Krock's fork's switching one is a WORKING IMPLEMENTATION!!!! EVERYBODY FULL SPEED AHEAD!!!!
