This is a small mod by Enosphorous, that aims to create a more realistic environment around minecarts. In vanilla Minecraft, you can stop a minecart in its tracks by simply standing in the way - it works like this for all mobs. Have you ever gotten frustrated at that stupid sheep who has cut off your path into your mine, sending you all the way back? If so, it's time for the Killer Minecarts mod. This mod creates a very dangerous environment around moving minecarts.

If a minecart is moving above a certain speed, when it comes into contact with a mob (including players) it will deal a large amount of damage to them and flinging them in a random direction, most likely killing them. Some mobs even have custom effects as to when you hit them, like dropping rare items or being tossed into the air.

Chickens are tossed into the air when you hit them, along with slimes and magma cubes. Villagers have a chance to drop emeralds, and other mobs have 'hidden' effects that you'll have to find out about for yourself! In the Nether, all mobs hit will catch on fire, and have a chance to drop the cooked version of their drops. Also, as a configurable bonus, all mobs have a small chance to drop music discs when hit with a minecart!

No base class edits? Sweet!

It was difficult, but forge events are a great thing. Hope you enjoy it!

Good work on this, hopefully you'll expand on the content on this mod more.

Perhaps.

Maybe I'll add in more customized effects for when you hit certain mobs, or maybe some new carting mechanics for collision.

Added a topic poll which will serve as the base for what I will be adding in 0.0.2!

MOD REVIEW COMMING YOUR WAY!
Can you make sure to put into topic? ?

" target="" data-ensure-absolute>" frameborder="0" autoplay="false" allowfullscreen sandbox="allow-forms allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups">

I would put it into the topic, but it tells me that your video is private, and people can't view it if they come here. Could you make it public so I can add it?

Looks awesome man, nice job!

Thanks! I'm working pretty hard on a version 0.0.2, hope you guys will like it!

Mod update!

New in version 0.0.2:

- Mob specific collision effects

- Custom DamageSource and death message

- Translated into 60 languages!

- Nether collision effects

- Rare drops/effects from collisions

- Less buggy, player damage is more stable

- Better knockback with velocities

- Some secret stuffs

The only thing I had to translate was for when a player hits another player and kills them, and the console will display something like -

"Enosphorous was run over by a minecart"

And yes, there will be some secrety stuff coming soon.
