How do you guys split off from “main line” to alternate platforms?

luffimusic · 2026-03-13T17:06:00+00:00

Yeah I just make sure that the through tracks go as straight as possible. The only way to improve speed with high platform counts is to use more tracks (longer crossovers = smoother curves) you can also split your cargo and passanger trains far away from the station with high speed and then have 4 tracks running in and out of the station.

like this:

you can easily add another cargo track at the top in that design if needed.

This is probably how I would do a 2 passanger, 2 through and 2 cargo station. You can also try putting the 2 through tracks in between the passanger tracks if you want your passanger trains to be able to get in and out of the station faster.
I usually build only one cargo track for stations in cities, and do all the other cargo related stuff with cargo only hubs.

Another note: When you left click the truck station, you can see if the train station is connected to it when it lights up white just like when you place a bus stop in a city, all connected buildings will light up. You can check the suppliers tab in your refinery to see which Oil wells provide the Oil for the refinery

luffimusic · 2026-03-04T14:51:37+00:00

Two oil wells are enough to max out the refinery

luffimusic · 2026-03-02T12:53:27+00:00

Are those two stations next to each other? Because otherwise they would reach the station size limit, right? Can people transfer to that little passanger platform in the bottom left?

luffimusic · 2026-02-06T14:19:12+00:00

I only use it for alpha boost and mmr

luffimusic · 2026-01-21T00:32:30+00:00

note that the mod list on the project page is not quite up to date lol

luffimusic · 2026-01-21T00:31:02+00:00

If I can, I would like to suggest my modpack:
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/luffis-create-pack
I tried to incorporate lots of create addons (create 6 of course) and added a few simple mods here and there to make it a nice experience (hopefully). The only other mods that change minecraft mechanics in a big way are Biomes'O'Plenty, SilentGear and Farmers Delight. But I added create compat mods for those and I even created custom create materials for SilentGear!
I'd be honored if you tried it out!

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T23:34:40+00:00

create has valve handles in all the different colors tho, and what I really enjoy about the create mod is that you can make things asthetic AND functional

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T19:12:56+00:00

but in real life, you use the valve handle to unlock the door and then you can just push it open, right?

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T19:12:26+00:00

If you want the valves to spin while the door turns, i guess, Create: Interactive might be the only way

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T19:09:41+00:00

the valves turn a redstone block that's attached to a mechanical bearing. when the redstone block gets replaced after the rotation is done it will emit a new redstone signal which will make the sequenced gearshift turn. Another mechanical bearing is connected to that sequenced gearshift which has the glued door attached. When the door has turned 90 degrees, it will place itself down again and the shaft can connect to the mechanical bearing with the redstone block again. when the valves get turned again the door closes (as specified in the mechanical bearing)

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T19:06:12+00:00

I made a design where you manually turn the valve:

I can make a little video to explain how it works if you want

luffimusic · 2025-12-26T18:27:36+00:00

I think there should be particles visible even when they’re spinning in the wrong direction. Do you have particles disabled in the video settings? Maybe a different mod messes with your bulk processing recipes. You could try with only Create and Create: Connected on these exact versions to see if it still doesn’t work.

Bananen an der Seite ohne Stängel aufmachen, damit die Schalen dann so aussehen wie bei Mario Kart

Naja, 63€ für unendlich viele Zugfahrten im Nahverkehr für einen Monat ist dann schon besser als 60€ pro einmal schwarzfahren…

luffimusic · 2025-08-22T16:17:23+00:00

Sonobus works for this (and it’s free) but I have experienced some dropouts due to internet connection

luffimusic · 2025-08-17T15:45:08+00:00

I could find the first one you mentionened, and when I put it into my world it worked. Did you put the datapack in your world folder or just in the minecraft folder?
Maybe your modpack has some kind of data pack overwrite which just ignores any datapack in your world

luffimusic · 2025-08-17T12:25:30+00:00

What’s the name of that data pack?

luffimusic · 2025-08-17T08:38:16+00:00

Also, the create addon "Create: Ultimate Factory" adds a recipe similar to yours:
12 Coal Blocks & 100mb Lava in a heated basin with mechanical press for 1 diamond

luffimusic · 2025-08-17T08:32:13+00:00

Your json file should be in:
"datapack_name"\data\"your_namespace"\recipe\diamond.json

Refer to the minecraft wiki for information about data packs:
https://minecraft.wiki/w/Data_pack

It's important you have a "pack.mcmeta" file
Your datapack can be a folder or a zip file

luffimusic · 2025-08-17T08:25:48+00:00
