It is basicly a dispencer in a minecart. Let your imagination run wild. If you don't have one, let me lay out my imagination's view on the matter. Basicly, when you place it, the dispencer will face you. When the minecart turns a corner, the dispencer will change its direction as it would in really life. When the minecart passes by a block with a redstone charge, it will activate like a normal dispencer, dispencing anything you put in it.

Normaly, I would say this has been a BanjoPlayingHorse suggestion, but since it is really only half of the post were I origanaly suggested this idea, I don't see saying that fit. the fact of the matter is that an admin blocked my post becuase I suggested this along with parachutes. It was "Two suggestions in one post". :dry.gif: :dry.gif: :dry.gif: Tell Notch about this, and tell the moterators that so many people suggest more than one thing in one post that it is really pointless being strich about that.
You seriously can't think of anything you would do with a dispencer in a minecart. I love people that only play minecraft to adventure and stuff, but seriously that is not living up to minecrafts possiblities.
sonic, gtfo. Stop telling mods what to do... He posted a reply 12 hours after he started the topic, so stop trying to be the one that tells everyone what to do and move on with your life.
Sonic may not be allowed to order moderators around, but you don't get to harass him/her and tell them to "get the **** out" of a thread.
I personally do not like the suggestion. I would rather be able to shoot a bow out of a moving boat or Minecart.

Sure, you can duplicate one feature of dispencers in minecarts with dispencers and repeaters, but there are serveral other uses. For instance:
Let me set the seen: Pvp Castle match. You are given a minecraft day to build defences for your castle. You build a minecart track that does a loop, with some booster rails, detetector rails, and a button. When the match starts you press the button sending the minecart down the track. The minecart races across the front of the castle, blasting arrows, and then returns back to the safety of the castle wall, were no arrows can shoot it.
What I basicly am saying is, that a minecart with a dispencer would be a fun mobile sentry gun, that you could destroy with weapons. It would also have the ability to attack, and then retreat. I personaly would have a lot of fun making pvp traps with these.
If any further stories are required to make you non-believers see what this can do, then let me know.

Well. Seems this idea is pretty universal.
I had much the same idea posted before the forum was overhauled. It had three minecart weapons:
1.Sword cart. A sword sticking out of the front of a regular minecart. The faster it goes, the more damage it deals if it hits someone(but only on the front). Mimic THAT, critics.
2.Fire cart.A minecart with netherrack in it. WHick sets every block within one block(besides tracks) ON BLOODY FIRE.
3.Catapult carts. Minecart with a controllable catapult. Which can launch items and blocks. TNT,of course, is lit as its launched. Stacks of arrows cause a rain of arrows.
Just think of all the pwnage moments you'd get seeing a griefer go WTF after get spiked by a sword cart while rigging a rairoad to 'splode.
Seems like a... rare opportunity. If I'm not mistaken, in 1.8 you can now eat in boats (haven't tested Minecarts), as long as you don't right click the actual boat. If it works for shooting and for Minecarts I have no problem leaving this out of the game. Seems like you could make some cool rides where you get points by shooting targets with a bow.

Not really. Shooting bows out of a cart doesn't really cut it when no one's riding the cart. Sword carts kill without such extras as people.
Edit: Speaking of which, the thread where I originally suggested this is still around. go ahead, read up.
Well I don't see the point but it would be fun if u could hop in and shoot people to death

You don't see a point? This would be a force multiplier anywhere with tracks. Plus you don't have to waste uses on a sword if a cow gets in the way, A sword cart would slice it up and keep going. Drive by shankin', yooho.

Also, I don't see what you are trying to suggest anyway.
we already have dispensers in minecraft...
derp.
edit: read your topic wrong. I do not support this idea, as you can just have multiple dispensers across a track if you really needed them.

To be honest, I don't see how this would serve much of a point.
Don't take that as all bad, take this as an opportunity. Give an example of it's usage. Perhaps you can redeem the hope you dashed before my eyes.
