Version 1.4 has been uploaded, with a totally new booster/braking mechanic. The old autocart version is still included, for those of you who don't want to use the new booster mechanics. I recommend most users try out the Normal Version from now on. Enjoy, and read the OP!
My solution more simple and effective: no wait for start up
I'm using ESS, add a rule prevent C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe form connecting to Internet, after pressed the login button, "play offline" show up immediately. You need update, disable the rule. No need, active it again
'cause all minecraft.exe use the same Java launcher in C: this rule works no matter where your minecraft directory is, you can have "minecraft 1.1" "minecraft 1.2" "minecraft 1.2.1" or more folders, the rule will works for all
What about other programs that use Java? They will get blocked too. Besides, this still doesn't fix the problem of Minecraft taking a while to start up, due to it waiting to time out. Sorry, but I still say my method is better.
That might've sounded a little elitist, but it wasn't intended that way.
minecraft is my only Internet-needed Java based game ( all the rest only can be played online), so it's convenient for me :tongue.gif:
What do you mean "start up lag"? Minecraft start up immediately after double-click the game icon, then press login, "play offline" show up immediately too.
This maybe cause by your Java or firewall, what about re-install Java? Or test it with firewall shut down? Hope it works :tongue.gif:
I cant seem to get this mod to work, when ever i place a minecart on a track minecraft crashes I'm not using any mods of any kind either.
Never mind that, I reinstalled minecraft and copied the mod to the right place and it now works.
There must have been a conflict with some old mod I had forgotten about.
since you took off the 1.3 update and replaced with 1.4, which gets rid of autocart
can you please keep a link up for 1.3 because i dont care much for you brakesand or booster block (but i will give you some props for both really cool ideas) and would just like to use autocart until birdcloud is able to update it
The AutoCart version makes them pointless and the standard version pretty much replaces them with a working mechanic rather than a handy glitch. But no, neither version "fixes" the old booster glitch.
Legos - there are two versions in archive - one with "standard" autocart and one with boost/brake blocks...
what he says in the original message is that he had to slightly change autocart, so now all you get when you click is bumping it forward, i dont want to have to bump forward id rather just click and sit
so all i am asking for is a link to the old v1.3 rather than updating to his 1.4
The AutoCart version in the download still fuctions like the original AutoCart. When he said he made it so hitting it would only bump it a long a little, he was talking about the standard version. So there's no need to have the 1.3 download.
In simple terms, HE DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT THE AUTOCART VERSION FROM 1.3 TO 1.4! ALL CHANGES WHERE MADE TO THE STANDARD VERSION!
Sorry for caps, but some people just don't understand things very well sometimes without them.

Laterz.
yeah dude caps was not necessary apparently you are still feeling a bit hostile towards me since our last conversation in your thread, relax dude stop being a little douche
and i just went back and re-read it and i now see where i missed that he said that, sorry that ive been up for over 24 hours and am a bit tired
Actually before I was just annoyed at someone not understanding something. I had completely forgot said conversation.
I am however angry now becuase you assume I was using caps becuase it was you specifically. I don't hold grudges, though it seems that you might.
Whatever. On a somewhat related/unrelated note, I had like only 3-4 hours of sleep a day for the last month. You don't see me being overly grouchy because of it now do you?
I'm not sure why, but for some reason this mod doesn't seem to be working. Either the auto-cart or your accelerator or brakes. I DID have the autocart you fixed up before the nov 5 patch, but now neither the normal or the autocart version are working. I've tried it with both my already modded version of minecraft.jar and my backup with nothing modified... any ideas?

New mechanic is very promising, but i have problem with carts - cart with passenger, and empty behave differently.
Booster blocks are stronger vs cart with passenger than empty
Brake block are weaker vs cart with passenger than empty
True. Thanks for the feedback, I'll attempt to address that issue in the next version.

Go through the steps slowly - be sure to delete the Meta-Inf, and double check you are in fact installing everything correctly.

Started a New .jar file and tested it.
Works perfectly.
Now, a slight annoyance;
When sitting in a cart, when you "nudge" it, it goes in the direction of the nudge.
If youre moving and nudge it in the opposite direction, it goes in that direction.
But if you Nudge it a THIRD time in any direction, the cart starts it's "break" animation.
That is, when you hit it, it starts to wobble and break if you hold down the punch button.
I dont want my cart to do this while inside the cart, but I dont know if this was implemented or a glitch.
It also seems that the cart has to be in a full stop in order for it to be nudged again.

That is intended, to avoid abuse, see here:
Quote from Afforess »
Moving From Inside a Minecart:
One of Autocart's features is the ability to press forward or reverse and change the direction of your minecart on the fly. I love this ability, but it doesn't mesh well with the booster system. I've modified it to still give you a small push, as long as you aren't already moving. It will no longer stop a cart in mid-motion, but will allow you to inch along.
Using the autocart version the game crashes as the cart is put down
Edit: crashes with both versions. :S
Minecraft has crashed!

That's because you are not using the latest version, 1.21_01. Update your copy of minecraft!
Update sounds absolutely beautiful, will come back to vote after trying.
P.s. Maybe something other than gold for the boosters... Will try then ponder the point
