MineCars Addon (1.20, 1.19) – MCPE/Bedrock Cars Mod

Ever looking for an addon that adds vanilla-styled vehicles to Minecraft? And all you find is some weird modern cars addon? No worries! Here at Random Kerbal’s Institute, we have the solution for you (probably not the best…but anyway)! MineCars Addon adds vanilla-styled vehicles to Minecraft (not “minecarts”).

Features:

100% Survival-friendly!

The author had spent over half a year working on this to ensure that: every little aspect (from visuals to functionalities) are contemplated, none of the “bugs” become “features”, have a code that is as optimised as possible, as well as to provide a pleasing experience for the users. Please enjoy!

This high-quality addon adds 7 new vehicles as well as 7 wagons for more customisation:

MineCars:

• Default Minecar
• Lantern Minecar
• Spike-shovel Minecar (2 Upgrades: Fire Aspect, Infused Star)
• Chest Minecar
• Drill Minecar (2 Upgrades: Diamond Boi, Netherite Boi)
• Shooter Minecar
• Soul Lantern Minecar
• (& more in the future?)

They may look like minecarts, but they are fuel-powered and can move without rails!

General Information (applied to all minecars):

Can be fuelled/refuelled by crouching and interacting with a combustible item:

More condensed fuel sources (coal block/lava/kelp block) power the vehicle longer, while lighter fuel sources (coal item/blaze powder/wood) power the vehicle for a shorter time.

• can be repaired by iron ingots
• can be picked up by punching it while sneaking
• can be boosted for 3 seconds using firework
• can be leashed (in case u ran out of fuel)
• can pull vanilla Minecarts
• tilt according to the terrain steepness!

• special breaking animation!

Example with a Regeneration lingering potion

Spike-shovel MineCar (name: Rammer)

Note: This Minecar has been REMADE completely and is now a new entity. This is due to the deprecation of Molang Filter “is_moving” (imagine it as a lego brick in the code) in Minecraft versions 1.17 and up, which is used by the original Rammer to test whether it is moving to activate the ramming functionality. This bug has been fixed in MC version 1.19 though. The original version can still be summoned via COMMAND [mc:minecar_rammer2] and now works properly if you want to try!

• has a spikey shovel for damaging mobs (2 hearts per tick)
• mobs can get stuck onto the shovel when you’re ramming at your victim (and take constant damage)!
• mobs will leave a bloodstain, which can be washed off by driving into water or rain

Upgrades:
Fire Aspect Upgrade (Tier1)

ABLAZE!

• second compound entity
• deals 6 points of damage + set mobs on fire!
• damage will penetrate entity armor

Recipe:

You will need to craft a firey spike shovel first:

Then combine it with a minecar:

Infused Star Upgrade (Tier 2)

The most OP thing ever existed…

• knock mobs 10+ blocks away!
• deals 20 points of damage (kills player in one hit)!
• summons a trail of lightning in the direction of the victim!
• lightning strike has a 5 seconds cooldown
• damage will penetrate entity armor!
• immune to all damage when ramming!
• try fighting the Warden!

POV: You’re the victim

You will need to craft a nether star spike shovel first:

The Wagons:

If you want more functionalities for your MineCar, feel free to add some wagons!

There are two ways to spawn the wagons:

• 1-use the spawn eggs in the Creative Inventory
• 2-use their respective items (couplers) to interact with the MineCar.

Note: The wagons can be attached to the MineCar using the wagon items (couplers), but NOT the spawn eggs. You can find both in the Creative Inventory, just make sure you use the correct one.

Here are the wagons currently in this addon:
