Panda Xpress

You are looking for a simple way to build large minecart railroad systems? Search no more.... we've got you covered!

Panda Xpress is a modular set of structures in various shapes that can be extended in any direction with the click of a button. It's aimed at builders that want to design large railroad maps at ease.

It's super lightweight- it just uses structures (and structure / command blocks to ease scafolding.) Based on a 13x13 matrix design you can build anywhere: underground, overground, under water, ...

How to get started?

You need to have admin rights to give yourself a structure block): /give @s Minecraft:structure_block

Then you can provide yourself with an initial structure (railroad element) like so:

[numlist] [] Place the structure block in front of you [] Click it and switch to the load screen (you can switch from load, to save, to corner mode) [] Enter the following name "panda_xpress:rail_v" (if you want to build vertically (north to south or vice versa) or "panda_xpress:rail_v" for horizontal usage (east - west or west - east) [] To place the first element on the ground (waterline/surface) put it down "-5" (best initial values are: -6 -5 0) [NOTE: you can click on show bounding box and hit load to get a preview!) [/numlist]

That's it.... after your first element you simply get on top of the roof and activate the respective structure blocks to load more elements!

Things planned for future version:

• more element types (left and right turns, up and down)
• station
• more styling option (the standard is pretty modern looking) to better fit in ancient worlds, also biome-specific skinning
• adding some custom textures to make the brand come alive
• the "Panda XPress Factory" world for custom versions etc.
• a modular control room with events, bonus cards, binome adjustments

And all of that, with using almost exclusively built-in features (primarily structure and command blocks and a bit of redstone).
