Inactive [MECH] CartDispense v0.11 - Dispense Carts On Rails Automatically [CB1.1-R4]

CartDispense - Dispense Carts On Rails Automatically
Version: v0.11

Description
Dont you just hate it when you find a train track that you want to ride and you dont have any minecarts to ride it. You could build one from iron or you could spawn one if you are an admin. Not anymore! With this plugin there is no need for making or spawning minecarts, simply press the button and a minecart will be spawned on the track automatically!

Updated to work with powered-rails and detector-rails!

Video


Features
* Click the stone button beside the dispenser and a minecart is automatically placed on the track.
* Works with standard rails, powered rails, and detector rails.
* Works in any orientation but there must be a track infront of the dispenser and a minecart inside the dispenser.
* Works with rails bellow the dispenser.
* Placing another dispenser on the other end of the track will automatically remove the minecart and place the user out of the cart.

THIS PLUGIN HAS MOVED TO OFFICIAL DEV.BUKKIT.ORG PAGE

Sounds good, good luck.

 

Version 0.02 - Added support for powered rails and detector rails.

 

eh, did u search? mine cart mania already uses a plugin addon which is exactly like this.

I knew there was something like this around but I just made it for those who want a simple way to dispense carts. Also minecart mania uses chests not dispensers.

 

Well done sir.

 

I like this plugin a lot. It saves me a lot of rails. the only problem is the infinite Minecarts. There should be a setting to destroy the Minecarts automatically when they either reach the end of the track, or touch another dispenser.

 

Thanks! This is for sure a feature I intend to implement, when the minecart hits the dispenser it should be removed and the user should be taken off the cart.

 

Awesome, can't wait for the update.

 

Awesome plugin; however Minecart Mania offers a similar feature where you can pass redstone current to a diamond block with a rail above it which generates a minecart and boosts it, which then used in conjunction with light green wool (to automatically put players into a minecart) could be used to create more effective stations.

You could make this into a lightweight version of the feature Minecart Mania provides. Allow passing current to a certain block to generate a cart, then have a block which when a minecart passes over it, it gets destroyed.

I wish you good luck with your plugin development (You don't come across as arrogant to me, which is sadly how some plugin developers act in response to their users).

 

Thanks for this great feedback I will try to impenent the minecart distroy feature today!
FYI you can use redstone to power the dispenser so it acts like the minecart mania mod.

I've updated this plugin to version 0.5. This adds support for removal of minecarts when they hit another dispenser on the track. Check the picture at the top for an example.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Great update and ooh you have a mac too

 

Very nice but people can steal the minecart. Can you make it work with iconomy 5 so we could add a price to use it (when the button is clicked). =)

 

Update comming tomorrow for iconomy(for sure) and permissions(maybe) ! I'll update when it's released.

 

Cool, I can't wait! Permissions would be great too! =D

 

@vcazan maby u can have it work like a cart collector as well so a dispencer/collecter all in one

 

It's already works like this as of v0.5 the dispense will collect and dispense the cart

 

@ vcazancan i use the same dispencer?
the front on the dispencer is faceing tords the outgoing
incomming>-------------->outgoing

 

Yes, that should work just fine.

EDIT: actually it does not, I have to tweek it. Will update you when it works.

 

sweet!!

Bad ;( build 818

 

Where did you download the .jar from, the one from the github is broken as im working on a release right now download my dropbox link here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/317875/Bukkit Releases/CartDispense.jar

I think CraftBukkitUpToDate is using my github jar as final, that might break it too, ill remove it from github.

 

Hi same with the plugin from your dropbox =/ i will wait

 

Can you let me know when this is happening, I am running 819 and it is working perfectly. Anyone else experience these issues? This might be a bug I can fix.

 

hi every time when i push the button. im running now 819. =/

 

What other plugins are you running? Come on my server and I can show you it works edgetest.dyndns.org

 

I did some tests and maybe i found the problem...

After I renamed my world from "Creative" to "world" i was able to use your plugin.

 

Thank you for this post. I have found the issue in my code

this.plugin.getServer().getWorld("world").spawnMinecart(spawnCart);

Updated to version v0.6, please let me know if this works now.

 

Nice plugin but little question !
Dispenser can work normal after your plugin or only spawn cart ?

 

the dispenserspawns carts and eat them up. It only works if there is a minecart in the dispenser if not it acts like a standard dispenser
