Apologies if this has been covered already, I wasn't able to find anything similar in searching for building on carts.
Anyway, it would be sweet if you could make carts that could be used as platforms. Endgame in my head is to put two parallel tracks along, and make a giant moving platform like the thing that carried the Space Shuttles to launch.
I guess to implement it, the idea would be to make a kind of cart that can only function as a base block for something to be built on top, similar to the storage carts only with a solid block sitting in it.

There are chest carts. you can put blocks in them. This post is useless >:3
Perhaps it could be like that Zeppelin mod, where it leaves it's block frame then re-enters the world on stopping?
I've thought of this idea many, many times, but never posted it. I thought that it could only be solid when it's not moving, and then it becomes a 'Minecart with [insertblocknamehere]', when broken it would drop a minecart and whatever block is inside it, could be useful for puzzle maps and things like that..

Not true, i know a lot of mods that have blocks outside of the grid for example http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/488434-173-zeppelin-010-wip/

What's up? I'm the proud co-owner of a little ClassiCube server called Minebuild.
