    the lack of rail infrastructure in this game disturbs me

    Not going to lie.... game seems not made for rail.
    Having said that, an easy fix would be rail pieces and rail wheels put into the game.

    I find the 1x1 wheels glitch ALOT inside the other blocks which when block dammage is on it damages stuff. finding a way to fit 3x3 wheels there really helps, you can do this by putting the passage ways 2 blocks appart stops alot of the glitching
    Or use the energy shields mod :) helps with piston elevators also

    for anyone having trouble with this. if you have access to dlc content. use the passage way 2 side block to get the height correct. then go the the passageway 3 block or passageway 3 w/ light block. far smoother and doesn't require nearly as much ramming.
    you can also do a second set of wheels to increase stability. so you also drive along the top of the passageway. this also gives you a second set of wheels to keep you centered.

    I find an easier way of doing things where for example you want precision or instead of ramming the cart into the track is having a separate vehicle with thrusters functioning as those tow things at airports, and lifting the vehicle up and into the shaft, then releasing it.

    if you want to go down or up put in stairs upside down and then just at a top rail to support the top from tipping if you got a heavy load as this is what i use for my base a similar concept one has cargo containers other cart has hydro tanks and to reach my inner base you need to catch my underground transport train from the main entrance which runs about a 1km into the ground
    (i got the concept from resident evil lol i love that film)

    It'd be easier lining up track sections vertically if you started by laying a base layer of blocks you could drop the sections on. Doing this in survival would only require placing the unconstructed blocks.

  • @mptrace

    Seems like the wheels get buggy stuck (or iffy ;-) ) in the passage no matter what adjustments i make to them. If you have the same problem just adding some forward and backward thrusters on top fixed it for me - i also turned off the propulsion and steering on the wheels so that they are more or less only used to keep the train on the track.
