Neowin's.... Official... Minecraft... Server... well, it ain't DynamicSquid but will do ;)

I humbly ask for citizenship, username: PilipoPL

Done - have fun and welcome back.

Anyone have any good idea's on how to slow down a minecart?

Basically building a branch line off the main subway lines to my base.. can't get the cart to slow down enough to hit the button to change the track..

I dunno...cobwebs maybe?

I might want to check this out when it's upgraded to 1.5.

If you could whitelist JestonU I'd appreciate it :)

Gonna try out the Neowin server, "Robz24" is the MC Username

You're free to play.

^ i still say they should switch to the Lockette plugin, as that one is known to be reliable

I guess I'll second that. Get a plugin that doesn't just say it's compatible with 1.4.7 but is actually compatible with the items that are found in 1.4.7.

Well the first version i made never worked properly..

So made version 2

Which involves a detector rail 30 blocks back from the junction, 16 Redstone repeaters all set to the highest wait time, and at the junction itself 2 powered rails with one on a slope that have been powered off.

When a cart at full speed comes along the track hits the detector rail, it will start the countdown, and by the time you get to the powered rails it will give you time to press the button to change track and turn on the rails to let the cart go.. if no action is taken, the cart will start again after 3-5 seconds..

Of course i haven?t shown all the Redstone wires needed to change the track while pushing the button..

Explain how so i can apply it to the other switch.

thanks

I would recommend against branching the line and build a sub-station at one of the stations. I haven't had time to work on it since I actually started the original idea... But I was trying to avoid line branches. The reason theres a dark blue line built up to the cyan line is because thats where the cyan will go once the spawn station is finally done.

Are you in creative or survival? As i don't remember seeing a cyan line in survival?

Folks: Do all of us a favour and clean up creeper damage on the survival world if you're the one who's triggered the bugger. Thank you.

I would appreciate this if people could,

I have been spending 15 or so Stacks of Dirt a day trying to clean up messes people have caused near my house.

You got to keep creeper damage, otherwise we're turning survival into creative.

Just put some torches around your area, top stop them spawning.

My area is already well lit, so I haven't problems with Creepers. Regarding Creative/Survival, there's a lot more than just creeper damage that defines survival. I wouldn't mind if their terrain damage was disabled.

    • I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.
    • The funny thing here is that like 70% or so of the web browser users use 'Google Chrome' as web browser. What I don't understand is that why on earth would ANYONE choose 'Google Chrome' on Windows when 'Microsoft Edge' is not just better in most things, but it's already there right out of the box for the Windows users. Microsoft Edge has less data collection (yes, that's a fact), less RAM usage and is more optimized for Windows (as it's a Microsoft product) right out of the box. I'm sure you will come with the argument of bloat in Microsoft Edge. Sure, but most of that can be fixed with a simple tool (there are many good ones out there for this). Yes, that require a couple of clicks in the same way as it requires several clicks to install 'Google Chrome'. And I'm sure you really love the 4 GB of AI-slop data 'Google Chrome' is downloading for Chrome without you agreeing to it. Fun right? Sure, the way Microsoft is pushing 'Microsoft Edge' on users might not be the best way of doing it and might need to change. But I would never choose 'Google Chrome' over 'Microsoft Edge' today anyways. I'm sure there was a period back in the days when 'Google Chrome' actually was better in most things, but that period is not today.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
