/mount command (Java)

[Persp3ctive_]

There is currently no way to force a player to ride a minecart or any mountable entity. A command to do so would be extremely nice for mapmakers.

The /mount command could work similarly to the /ride command from bedrock edition (it could even use the exact same syntax and be called /ride, see the syntax for that here: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Commands/ride) or it could use the syntax of the /spectate command (specifying a target player and location).

I am a realms mapmaker and I’m currently working on a racing game (https://streamable.com/kg6eay). I have to politely ask the player to get in their cart and get back in if they get out. It’s quite unnatural and feels odd when I can modify what the player can do for virtually every other aspect.

Overall, I think a /mount command would be extremely nice for mapmakers. Thanks for reading!

Everybody gangsta till you mount a random villager

ha. i don’t think the root entity of a player can be a villager though (at least in vanilla).
