Love the idea of adding a train to MineTown... <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>
i like trains
Honestly, trains would be a fun plugin, but not for the Minetown community. There would probably be a lot of bugs in a plugin as complex as that as there are with most plugins. The server has a survival theme, and in a survival game, I don't often see trains <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f61b.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":p">:p</object>. It's a great idea for a building server though.
It could also create a lot of lag for the server since it would have to run about 20 trains per minute, which would kind of make Minetown a bit worse. But I agree with Amarxi on this.
The link above was a solid plug imo... it worked good on my offline world really well was able to connect 4 carts no issues. But if we add it to the creative server once it comes out that would be very kewl either way. When it opens if anyone wants to build a full blown train station I'd like to get a group of us ready and start planning ideas for it... make a event out of it maybe?
kalboo405... like you said it was an offline world. This is a server online, with 150 people playing (which creates lag itself). As well, considering, we'd expect people to use this plugin, so say we'd have 10-20 trains each with 5-10 carts on them. In addition, we have mods/admins who use fly (which does add some cpu use). We also have several other plugins we use, which also make more lag. On a server, it seems everything makes lag. We also have a warp system in place, so the train system truly doesn't seem necessarily wanted by a significant enough portion of our community to merit consideration. At least, that is my opinion. Only two people, including you, have stated a wanting for this plugin. As well, you brought this back from four days of it being dead.
