a turtle cart is basically a minecart powered by a turtle. you can do many things with this which would start to integrate computercraft into the game… some ideas I had were: speed (you can set, or get your current speed from the turtle), distance (you can set how far to go/where to stop and get how far you have travelled), time (you can set events to happen based on time, set how long a turtle should run, or not run for, or see how long a turtle has been running for), direction (you can choose weather it should run forwards or backwards). it could be set it to do different things when going over certain types of track, or block, or be set to power the line as it runs over it?… I think it could be a good way of making reliable railways ingame using vanilla stuff, and a little bit of lua :P/> (since most vanilla railways are horribly unreliable due to the lack of control you have) and with additions like this, the mod will slowly begin to merge with the game and become a thing…. the line between the mod and the game will begin to blur I guess :P/> *waits intently for the immediate no it will get*
