I've been making a cart network for my base. It's mainly used for passenger transport, but funnels towards my storage system for when i deliver cargo.
It never works; items fall off, items dissapear, items just find their place in the afterlife. That's until i discovered the minecart mod. Whilst it may not follow the drainage pattern of my cart system, it certainly provides a far safer method of transport (and if used for passengers, possibly less confusing as every buffer goes to only one city.
The speed signs provide a much better way of controlling speed then the boost cart brake rails, and the cargo-first approach makes it far easier to make a cargo system. No longer do i need to make dedicated tracks; i can just use the base's pre-installed system to transport cargo.
I am building a modular industrial estate, and this mod makes spaghetti a lot easier to avoid. No longer are there these pipelines running to the storage centre, but instead cart lines between farmers and manufacturers, storage centres and shops, paths and railways, and far more.
What's so much better is the fact that this mod is fully backwards compatable with the network i've already got down.
