So i have been a major fan of minecraft since the game came out, and i have always had one problem with the game- transporting items over large biomes. It has to be the most aggravating thing ever. With this new expansion "Ender chests" have gotten rid of a little bit of the burden, but it is still is not an efficient transportation system. Yes of course there are Minecarts, but the tracks are expensive and require a large amount of iron, redstone & gold resources. So i thought of a solution. WAGONS, Wagons drawn by animals. And although this may seem silly, I assure you it's not. This would be an excellent way to move items or basically your home, without having to have two people and two Ender chests. And how will these wagons work? Well basically the same as a boat, only with wheels. first, you would need to craft a boat or two, then make four wheels. Then add them together on a crafting table. They would need to be two block high, two block width, three block length wagon. There are many ideas you could change it with, make it ride-able, or just able to have chests in the back. Maybe have it were you must be ahead of the animal and make it come with wheat, or you sit on it and have a fishing pole with wheat lure to guide it. Make the wheels have durability that can be broken. Make it to were it has to be a very low slope road in order to ride, so that if you try to go up too many blocks it breaks the wheels, make them flammable, easily destroy-able. And most of all, MAKE PIGS WORTH SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST MEAT! Say pigs make it maybe slightly faster than say the player, while they grow tired very quickly, while cows are more slow but have more stamina, with sheep being the middle man. Again there is lots of possibilities with this idea. And if this were to be ever put in the game, the moders would have a very fun new toy. There are so many things this would be useful for as well just being fun. Please like this up so they will actually consider this. PLEASE NOTCH .
Thank you, i just feel this would not only be helpful to all Minecraftians, but it would end up making some pretty sweet wild west towns for creative play.
that was a big concern about it, i would think that at best it should be same speed, and that was another thing with the different animals, say pigs are the fastest and make it maybe slightly faster than say the player, while they grow tired very quickly, while cows and more slow but have more stamina, with sheep being the middle man. again there is lots of possibilities with this idea. and if this were to be ever put in the game, the moders would have a very fun new toy.
ohh yes, if pulled by a player it would be much slower, deplete the players stamina rapidly, and be quite inefficient. Also being two wide would make it possible a two seater, so someone could ride shotgun, which could be used to keep the craft safe with a bow. the rear would hold a double chest. also the wheels could be made of iron for more durability or wood for a less expensive ride. and maybe the main wagon be even made by using two mine carts for more durability also. the possibility's are endless.
if it does I support this
then charge into battle
