If construction cost is no object one can of course use powered rails all the way to the top to get the best possible performance.Ĭarts with a rider, or chest carts, have more momentum and so climb higher than one that is unloaded. To maintain speed in a climb a ratio of 5:4, powered versus regular rail segments, is a good compromise for decent speed at a reasonable cost, starting with 2 powered rails on the flat before the upward slope to be sure the cart starts the climb at maximum speed. Further testing showed the minimum number of powered blocks to keep the cart climbing well is 3 powered rails every 6 blocks starting at 9 blocks high, at the cost of a strong reduction in speed. However, the cart slows so much that it can reach only another 5 blocks high with 2 lengths of powered track starting at 9 blocks high. This suggests that powered track is needed at this height only to keep a cart climbing.

Turning next to a wall (see below) or having hills to climb adversely affect the speed of a cart, and so its distance traveled.Ī minecart with no rider, at full speed, can climb 10 blocks on unpowered, upward sloping rail. The performance of a rail line is affected by the way the track is placed. The rest of this page discusses the use of these components in building tracks and rail transport systems.

Activator rails trigger an action on a cart passing above them when powered: TNT minecarts are set off, a hopper cart gets deactivated, and players/mobs riding in one are pushed out of it.Powered rails add momentum to a cart passing over them when powered, when unpowered they have a braking action and slow or even stop a cart.
Detector rails give off a redstone signal when a cart passes over them, otherwise they act as a regular rail.Rails always have to sit on another solid block and are the only rail type that can curve.Please see the individual pages for each type of rail for information on their properties and basic usage: Running into a player, mob, or a stopped cart causes it to reverse direction, even on a powered track. Minecarts "bounce" off of obstructions on the track.A long stretch of rail or an up-slope reduces a cart's momentum and thus its speed, eventually stopping it unless the forward key is held throughout by a player riding the cart.A stretch of an unactivated powered rail of at least two blocks length brings a loaded cart at full speed to a complete halt.A player riding in a cart may add momentum by "pushing" it using the forward control.A minecart with a player inside goes from stationary to full speed after about 13m of powered rail.Activated powered rails, down slopes, and being pushed by players or mobs add momentum to a cart, increasing its speed.A chest minecart carrying 320 items (5 stacks) travels 101m from full speed.An empty hopper or chest minecart travels 165m from full speed.
A fully loaded hopper or chest minecart travels 40m from full speed.A minecart with a player inside travels 309m from full speed, staying at full speed for 176m.Minecarts move differently depending on their load.On a diagonal track they move at 11.314 m/s = sqrt(2) * 8. Minecarts move at 8 m/s at top speed on a straight track.
The following are the most important properties of minecarts.
