I built a working version of the Tron Lightcycle roller coaster from Hong Kong Disney Land.

Please let me know what you think. I tried very hard to make it accurate to the track layout.

  Have something to say?

You asked for an opinion, here is mine: I like the look with the sea lanterns switching on and off and the ride really gives you a bit of a Tron feeling. But the speed of the car should vary, otherwise driving will still be kind of boring... And you should install a real starter for the car. At first I didn't even know which way to go! A few sounds wouldn't be bad either... The track still needs a lot of work, but as it looks so far, it will be worth it! : )

Is there a way to change the top-speed of a minecart? As far as I know there's only one speed minecarts of any type can go, especially if there's a hill or you need to provide a boost.

Of course, there is nothing you can't influence in minecraft!

If you put repeating command blocks that needs to be powered under activation rails you drive trough, you can give it the following command and your minecart will go in every speed you want:

execute positioned ~ ~1 ~ run data merge entity @e[​type=minecart, distance=..1,sort=nearest,limit=1] {Motion:[​0.0,0.0,0.0]}

Change motion [​0.0,0.0,0.0] like [​x,y,z] or [-x,-y,-z] to change direction (y is not possible in this case because rails don't go up)

however, slowing down the car when driving uphill is also a good way to feel the fast stretches more extreme. you just have to try and change it until it looks really good! : )

Hope this helps a little!

That didn't quite work. I've tried playing around with the X,Y,Z numbers to get it to work and sometimes I'm able to get it to function... but it never goes beyond the minecart's normal top speed and often it just stops the cart dead in it's track.

It seems to work normally when the Z is set to 1, but if I try to go higher than 10 the cart doesn't move at all. I know this is the number i need to mess with because if i set it to -1 the cart immediately starts going backwards. But I still can't get the cart to go beyond it's normal top speed.

that's a pity... well, maybe you can use the command to slow down a few sections of the route so that you can accelerate again immediately afterwards... the same speed continuously for the whole track is definitely not a solution either ; )

Let me know, when you need someone to test it out : )
