About this project

What does The Copper Rail add?

This mod adds the copper rail, which pushes minecarts only in 1 direction!

  • It does not need a block nearby to start pushing, like vanilla powered rails.
  • Copper rails have to be powered to work. They would act as unpowered golden rails otherwise.
  • Just like activator rails don't power golden rails, copper rails also don't share redstone power with other rail types.
  • Pushing direction is determined by position of the player who placed the rail.
  • As a bonus, these rails also generate in mineshaft loot chests, just like all vanilla rails.
  • Has an unofficial Barebones resource pack compat!
  • Supported by RAY's 3D Rails!

Example use of copper rails to redirect a minecart
