[1.8] Coding Rails

[Tagg393]

I was hoping to replicate a Minecart without the cart, have the player still sitting but at a slightly different angle and sideways. So basically you would ride a line of the same block, with built-in support for going 2-3 different ways based on arrow key presses. I am completely fine with writing most of the code from scratch, (though it has been a while since I programmed) but some pointers would really help out I have been looking for tutorials for this one for a long while Lol. Thanks In Advance.

Why would you want to do this?

I am doing something that looks really foolish, but that if managed to pull off will look awesome. Does that help?

Umm, look into EntityMinecart code? This seems a little odd to say the least.

You can make an invisible entity.

Or..

You can move the player manually with the players velocity.

I would suggest doing the invisible entity unless somebody else has a better idea.

Please explain further lol.

Do you want me to go and code an entity for you?

I am planning on adding a lot of stuff to it to satisfy my need to learn (somewhat), but if you want to help me with the base entity that would be sweet Thanks for the offer

Dont want to be mean. But I was being sarcastic.

... XD...... No harm done, I was actually kinda expecting something along those lines to begin with. I also figured out what you meant.... Which was what deadrecon98 was saying, and what I was looking up. Thanks anyways
