Affects 1.16.2 Pre-release 1
Also relates to MC-2783

Comment by Marty McFly [ 21/Jun/20 ]

I think that this is duplicated by MC-158169, however it has additional scenarios in which this bug occours.

Comment by Marty McFly [ 19/Jun/20 ]

Affects 1.16 Release Candidate 1, but is only a visual glitch.

Comment by [Mod] j_p_smith [ 21/May/20 ]

Confirmed in 1.15.2 and 20w21a.

Comment by TheGabro [ 27/Apr/20 ]

Unable to reproduce, only a visual glitch happens in loop. 20w17a

Comment by user-f2760 (Inactive) [ 17/Mar/16 ]

No response for over a year.

Comment by Galaxy_2Alex [ 25/Oct/14 ]

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.8.1 Prerelease 3 / Launcher version 1.5.3 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 07/Mar/13 ]

I haven't tested it yet. good to know. Thanks!

Comment by Sealbudsman [ 07/Mar/13 ]

Still happens in 1.5.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

oh yeah. okay. good. its not just me.

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 03/Feb/13 ]

I mean that I also get that. Sometimes the outer cart just continues over the broken track.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

true meaning its in the game? I don't understand. are you testing it?

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 03/Feb/13 ]

That's also true.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

i didn't count but I think so. sometimes they switch faster than other times. also, if you break an outside rail block they all leave the middle and do the other bug where it propels itself on ground (without the rail).

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

yeah.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

So its not a bug? there switching tracks. after a while the booster just lets a few minecarts on to the other track.

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 03/Feb/13 ]

Started with 5 in the middle, 1 on the outside and was able to get all 6 on the outside.

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

I guess I didn't explain the bug as well on the last post. I'll try better.

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 03/Feb/13 ]

Confirmed, but don't you expect trains to go crazy when they are colliding into each other?

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

oh, nvm

Comment by Rob Chiocchio [ 03/Feb/13 ]

sorry. I'll change

The last post was closed and there was one bug (this one) that wasn't resolved.
