Download Railcraft:
All downloads have been moved to the wiki. You can find them on the Download Page.

Compatibility:

• ID Requirements - This mod currently uses six block IDs. The Loader/Unloaders/Dispenser are combined under the Utility ID, and the Detector blocks under another. The new Rails are under the third, except for the Elevator Rails which required their own block ID. Posts/Signals/Switches are all under the Structure ID. The World Anchor/Concrete Block/Steel Block are under the Cube ID. Block IDs can be changed or disabled in the config file "%appdata%/.minecraft/config/railcraft.cfg".
  
• TMI - If you experience odd behavior when using TMI to spawn in blocks and items from Railcraft, please don't post it in this thread. It just adds confusion. Thanks.
  
• Zombie's Modpack - You must use the Forge compatibility patch provided in the Zombie thread.
  
• ID Resolver - Don't change the id of the basic minecart, chestcart, or Furnace Cart items. If you get normal rails when placing advanced rails delete your ID Resolver settings and start over.
  
• Singleplayer Commands - If SPC is installed you may be unable to break minecarts and Bore Heads break instantly. Seems to be related to commands such as /instantkill and /itemdamage.
  
• Buildcraft - I am unable to test all possible combinations, if you are curious about specific version compatibility just test it, but make sure you installed everything correctly before experimenting with versions not listed. Deleting the Buildcraft folder in the Railcraft zip file may increase your chances of compatibility, but only do this as a last resort. Versions listed as compatible where only tested to ensure that the game loaded and Tank Carts were functional while using the bare minimum of Buildcraft. There may still be issues in parts untested. If you encounter problems with a version listed as compatible, please make a post after following the support procedure detailed at the bottom of this post.
  
• Steve's Carts - Fully compatible. Find it here.
  
• Trains Mod - Fully compatible. Find it here.
  
• Better than Wolves - No longer compatible due to BTW withdrawing from Forge.
  
• Other Mods - Most mods that are Forge compatible should work fine. If a problem occurs it can most likely be fixed once identified.

Warning: The information below is not guaranteed to be accurate. Please see the wiki for more complete information.

Vanilla Rails:
New recipes, same old rails.

• Rail
  
  
• Powered Rail
  
  
• Detector Rail
  

Advanced Rails:

• Boarding Rail
  
  When powered these rails act just like your standard Booster Rail, but when unpowered they will grab and hold onto any cart that passes over them. And unlike Booster Rails, the cart can't be pushed off. Additionally, when placed the rail will have an arrow on one side. When an unpowered rail with a minecart on it becomes powered, it will launch the cart in that direction.
  
• Holding Rail
  
  Similar to a Boarding Rail, only difference is this rail will instead launch the cart in the direction it was travelling when it arrived.
  
• One-Way Rail
  
  When unpowered these rail behave like normal rails. But when they receive power they will reverse the momentum of any cart travelling in the wrong direction. Some momentum is lost of course.
  
• Control Rail
  
  These rails act like weak boosters that only boost carts in one direction. Any carts travelling in the opposite direction will be gradually slowed. Powering them will reverse the direction of the rail. They are cheap to make and will propagate power for up to sixteen blocks in either direction.
  
• Launch Rail
  
  Maybe not very realistic, but a ton of fun anyway. This rail will launch any cart that passes over it into the air. Launch force can be adjusted by right-clicking on the rail with a Crowbar.
  
• Priming Rail
  
  This rail will light the fuse of any explosive cart that passes over it. Fuse length can be adjusted by right-clicking on the rail with a Crowbar. Fuse length is measured in 1/20ths of a second.
  
• Junction Rail
  
  This rail will allow you to place "diamond" junction crossings.
  
• Switch Rail
  
  This rail will allow you to create true turnout switches when combined with a Switch Motor.
  
• Elevator Rail
  
  Original code, concept, and texture by DizzyDragon
  This rail is unique in that is can be placed vertically. When powered, it will power all the rails below it. Powered rails will lift minecarts up, unpowered rails will lower minecarts down. When a minecart reaches the top it will be pushed onto any normal rail located on the block above. The rail also doubles as a ladder. More info can be found on DizzyDragon's webpage (most of it still applies).

Speed Rails:
This collection of rails is a little different from normal rails. Any carts travelling on these rails can travel three times faster than normal, but only in a straight line. Additionally, attempting to leave these rails without first slowing down will likely result in death and destruction. Collisions are bad too. Please sign the wavier before boarding.
See the wiki for more information.

• Speed Rail
  
  The basic high speed rail. They are made from a special iron-gold laminate rail mounted on stone sleepers and are capable of handling up to three times the speed of normal rails.
  
• Speed Switch Rail
  
  This rail will allow you to create true turnout switches when combined with a Switch Motor. Attempting to turnout at high speed is not recommended.
  
• Speed Booster Rail
  
  These rails will boost the cart when powered or slow them to normal minecart speed if they are not.
  
• Speed Transition Rail
  
  These directional rails will only boost carts in the direction of the arrows and only when powered. Carts travelling in the opposite direction will be slowed to normal minecart speeds.

Wooden Rails:
For the leisurely tour routes, these new rails will give your passengers time to admire the scenery.

• Wooden Rail
  
  The basic wooden rail. Capable of making corners and traversing slopes. Functionally equivalent to normal rails, only with a lower maximum speed (for safety reasons).
  
• Wooden Switch Rail
  
  This rail will allow you to create true turnout switches when combined with a Switch Motor.
  
• Wooden Booster Rail
  
  Functionally equivalent to Powered Rails, but in wooden rail form.
  
• Wooden Junction Rail
  
  Functionally equivalent to Junction Rails, but in wooden rail form.

Carts:

• TNT Cart
  
  The ever popular explosive combination returns. Handle with care. Will explode if jarred or lit on fire. Great for parties. Can be used as a substitute for cannonballs or fireworks in a pinch. Fuse length can be adjust with a string. Fuse length is measured in 1/20ths of a second.
  
• Tunnel Bore
  
  Bores a 3x3 tunnel and lays rails, see the wiki for more information and the Bore Head recipes.
  If you are using any mods that add blocks to terrain gen, you will probably need to edit the Railcraft.cfg file and add their block IDs to "tweaks.minecarts.bore.mineableBlocks". Ores added to the Forge Ore Dictionary are automatically mineable.

Structures:

• Concrete Block
  
  A simple block that matches Stone Posts.
  
• Wooden Post
  
  A multi-purpose wooden framework capable of being used to create trestles, signal mounts, bridges, fences, telephone poles, etc...
  
• Iron Post
  
  A multi-purpose iron framework capable of being used to create trestles, signal mounts, bridges, fences, etc...
  Can be painted different colors by surrounding any kind of dye with eight iron posts of any color.
  
• Stone Post
  
  A multi-purpose stone framework capable of being used to create trestles, signal mounts, bridges, fences, telephone poles, etc...

Signals:
Due to the complexity of Signals, most of the information is only available on the Railcraft Wiki. Signalling would be a good place to start.

Devices:

• Coke Oven
  
  The Coke Oven is an integral part of Railcraft as it produces Coal Coke and Creosote Oil when fed Coal. It is constructed out of 26 Coke Oven Bricks as a 3x3 cube with the center block missing. Please see the wiki for more information.
  
• Detector Block
  These Detector Blocks will detect any minecart that passes adjacent to them. They can be placed under or beside rails. They will only provide power in the direction with the light.
  
  
  Spoiler

  
  

  • Detector - Storage
    
    This detector only triggers on storage carts.
    
  • Detector - Powered
    
    This detector only triggers on powered carts.
    
  • Detector - Any
    
    This detector triggers on any cart.
    
  • Detector - Player
    
    This detector only triggers on carts with a player in them.
    
  • Detector - Empty
    
    This detector only triggers on empty carts that can be ridden.
    
  • Detector - Mob
    
    
    This detector only triggers on carts with hostile mobs in them.
    
  • Detector - Animal
    
    This detector only triggers on carts with animals in them. Has a GUI that allows you to select certain animals.
    
  • Detector - Explosive
    
    This detector only triggers on explosive carts.
    
  • Detector - Advanced
    
    Uses a GUI to select which carts it detects.
• Loader
  
  This block will fill any storage cart beneath it with the items from an adjacent block with an inventory (Chest, Furnaces, Unloaders, etc...). Buildcraft pipes can also supply items directly to the Loader's own hidden, internal inventory slot. When the cart is full the Loader will send out a redstone signal. The recommended setup is a Boarding Rail placed beneath the Loader. This rail will be automatically powered by the Loader. If you right-click on the Loader it will open a GUI with two options: "Wait if cart is empty", and "Wait till cart is full". If "Wait if cart is empty" is true, then empty carts will wait at the loader until they've received at least one item. If "Wait till cart is full" is true, then the cart will wait until it is completely full before moving on.
  
• Unloader
  
  This block will empty the contents of a storage minecarts inventory into a hidden, internal inventory slot. From there the items will be moved to adjacent blocks with inventories (Chest, Furnaces, Loaders, etc..) or can be piped out using Buildcraft. It will only empty carts that pass over the Unloader. The recommended setup is a Boarding Rail placed on top of the Unloader. The Unloader will send out a redstone signal when there is nothing to unload from the cart. If you right-click on the Loader it will open a GUI with one option: "Wait till cart is empty". If "Wait till cart is empty" is true, then the cart will wait until it is completely empty before moving on, even if there is no more room to place items.
  
• Switch Motor
  
  Combine with Switch Rails to create true turnout switches.
  
• Cart Dispenser
  
  Triggers on a positive redstone pulse and can store up to three carts. When triggered it will collect any minecart in front of it, or if there is no minecart and it has a cart in the inventory, it will place a cart on the rail.

Items:

• Crowbar
  
  A multi-purpose tool any rail engineer should carry. It makes removal of old rails a breeze and even works on Detector Blocks and Loaders. Additionally, right-clicking on a rail will allow you to adjust the rail. Most of the time that means reversing the rail's direction, but some rails will open a GUI. Right-clicking blocks that have an orientation will turn the block to face the side clicked on.
  
• Wooden Tie
  
  Your basic railroad tie. Created using Creosote Oil, which you get from cooking Coal or Wood in a Coke Oven.
  
• Wooden Railbed
  
  Every rail need support.
  
• Stone Tie
  
  A more sturdy sleeper for more advanced rails.
  
• Stone Railbed
  
  Stone is better than wood.

Mod Extensions

• Buildcraft
  These items are only available if Railcraft detects that Buildcraft is installed. There are no special steps required whether you do or do not use Buildcraft, its all automatic.
  No code or textures beyond the Buildcraft API are included in Railcraft. Buildcraft is the work and property of Spacetoad.
  
  • Tank Cart
    
    This cart can store and transport any Buildcraft liquid. It is filled/emptied at a Liquid Loader/Unloader. It's capacity is half a Buildcraft Tank, 8 buckets.
    
  • Detector (Tank)
    
    This detector only triggers on Tank Carts. Right-clicking on it will open a GUI with a filter slot that you place a bucket of liquid in. If there is a bucket present, then the detector will only trigger on Tank Carts carrying the liquid type in the bucket.
    
  • Liquid Loader
    
    This block will fill Tank Carts below it with any liquid piped into it. It has an internal capacity equivalent to one bucket. Otherwise it functions similar to your basic Loader.
    
  • Liquid Unloader
    
    This block will empty Tank Carts above it into its internal reservoir. From there the liquid can be pumped out with a Waterproof Wooden Pipe and a Buildcraft engine. It has an internal capacity equivalent to one bucket. Additional, if you put a bucket in the Filter slot of the GUI, the Unloader will only empty carts carrying the same liquid as the bucket. Otherwise it functions similar to your basic Unloader.

Notes on the Furnace Cart:
Thanks to the new collision code, Furnace carts can push other carts. It has been tested with up to five carts. The results indicate that while it can push up slopes and around curves, there are occasional glitches in which it will lose a cart or reverse directions. Mobs or items on the rails are often the cause, but sections with both slopes and corners can be a problem too. More work will be done to solve these issues, but for now I recommend well lit straight tracks with few elevation changes and something to keep the sheep and chickens away.

  • Improved Powered Cart(s) with fuel inventory.
    
  • Collection Cart - Picks up items nearby and places them in a linked chestcart.
    
  • Also have a few other ideas, but I'm going to keep quiet on them for now.
• New Rails - Yes, more are coming, but I'm taking ideas too! Most of the following ideas were provided by users.
  
  • Trap Rail - Similar to Suspended Rails but will drop the cart if powered by redstone.
    
  • Detector Rails - I might consider making Detector Rails that are equivalent to the Detector blocks. Maybe.
    
  • Hidden Rail - A block that can be submerged in water or lava or pushed by pistons that possesses a retractable rail on top. (No this does not mean you can run minecarts underwater).
    
  • Laser Rails - A high tech energy rail that extends between two blocks. Powered by the IC2 power grid.
• Automatic routing system.
  
• Cart Balancer - A chest with a global inventory that can only hold minecarts. Useful for distributing carts in large rail networks with many stations.
  
• More configuration options.
  
• Addons for other Forge mods.
  
• Improved rail rendering, someday.

Support:

Read the FAQs First!

• I will not answer questions twice! Read the thread for solutions. If its a common problem I will post it in the FAQs or Compatibility section. Check the wiki for more detailed instructions on how to obtain support.
  
• If installation failed, DO IT AGAIN WITH A FRESH JAR! Follow the instructions on the applicable pages for the installation of ModLoader, ModLoaderMp and Forge. In that order!
  
• If you are using the Technic Pack, you will have to go ask them if you have issues. I don't offer support for Technic Pack users.
  
• Do not install any other mods until you know Railcraft is working and installed properly. This will help me know if the problem is a conflict with another mod. Once you are sure everything works with just Railcraft installed, add your other mods one at a time and test thoroughly after you install each one. The more information you have when you come to me with your problem, they more likely it will be that I can help you.
  
• If you still have a problem, post your ModLoader.txt and/or crash log in this thread along with a thorough description of your installation procedure and the problem. Helpful information includes version, SSP, SMP, or Bukkit, and OS. Please use spoiler and code tags when posting modloader.txt and crash logs.
  If you don't post modloader.txt. I cant help you. Period.

[GLaCB]

Pics please.

and this WILL NOT work with BTW's minecart(maybe minefactory)

[pwnedgod]

This will be a nice mod for my gameplay. Btw will this work with better than wolves? Cus better than wolves changes minecart a little bit.

[Tolyboy]

wow awesome

[Pyrocantaes]

oooh this looks really interesting...

Have you tested with BTW?
For you chunks problem take a look at the Build Craft Teleport/Additional Pipes mod ... he has a chunk loader that should do everything you need..

[CovertJaguar]

I haven't tested it, but I believe that it will simply replace any changes BTW makes to minecarts. The BTW detector rails should work I think, but like I said before placement will be quirky. As for the Hopper, I have no idea.

[lightice11]

I think it should work for BTW because you can disable the changes BTW makes to mine cart speeds in its config file.

Edit: I really like this mod and it made it even better that it is Forge compatible.

[makermod1]

pretty cool mod, would you be able to make a handcart and mabye cuplings?? I have no clue how hard it would be but a handcart and being able to make a train by cupling them together would be pretty cool....

I don't know about a handcart, but cart linking is planned.

oh nice.... that would be a first for a mod, would be very very useful,

[rsdworker]

looks cool - its sounds a good system

[CovertJaguar]

Looked at Minefactory, should work alright, I think.

[Jackster35]

Looks really cool, I'll give it a try later.

[Timtower]

maybe some kind of tool to rotate the sections? it is really anoying that the parts face one side if build incorrect

[CovertJaguar]

Well I wanted to avoid making another wrench, but I suppose I could. =P

I've never had any trouble placing rails though. Just face the direction you wish them to be placed.

[Timtower]

suggestion : make a detector for all kind of carts

[Ket]

Nice changes to the minecart collisions, sadly if you use BTW it will crash upon activating any of the detector rails it got with a class cast exception:

Read up - there are specific comments about turning off BTW's minecart modifying behaviour...

That has nothing to do with BTWs minecart edits, that just changes the de-acceleration of the carts in the EntityMinecart class
and anyway I got that turned off.
This is an error causes by this mod overriding the default minecart classes, which breaks the detector rails in BTW as they extend the default detector rail

wow this seems amazeing but if you add magnet cartys and magnet rails it can open up new
rollar coater possabilitys like magnet ones can go ion the side and updide down magnet carts are to be used on magnet rails
the stay on them normal ones would just fall if on side or up side down
let me know if you like idea
