I made some stops and switches at the main station. There's a starting point to launch the carts from, and switches to get from the top rail to the bottom, and vice versa. I think they all work correctly, but let me know if they don't.

Also, the rail is really inefficient. I'm thinking about cleaning it up at some point, but it'll be a lot of work. You only need 1 powered rail every 38 blocks, although having it the way we do doesn't really hurt anything.

Nice!

More power keeps your speed up from wherever you get on.
Why bother, it's not like you have to pay for it!

It only take 3 powered rails to get up to full speed. I guess I don't really get on in the middle of the rail.

The only problem so far is I haven't figured out how to go from the East Rail to the North Rail, or the West Rail to the South Rail. Working on it though.

Rails are really a pain in the ass to get working right for switching tracks.
I will probably get on tonight and mess with mine some more.

one reason is that it messes with the stops. if you have too much speed/momentum, the stops don't stop you fast enough and you can't start again. cleaning that up now.

Just realized I also don't have a South to East, or North to West. May either re-think it all, or just make people get off and back on.
