Introduction

Train spawn chest is used to pick up a train and spawn it again

The Train spawn chest is a special item that can hold train information. While holding the item players can right-click on trains to suck up the train into the item. Then, by right-clicking on rails, players can spawn the train again. All train properties are preserved.

Spawning on rails close to another train will add additional connected carts to that train. The orientation of looking at the rails changes in what orientation the new train is spawned.

Usage

To get the item, you need to use the following command:

Give the player a new empty train chest item

Command:	/train chest
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

You can then right-click on rails to spawn a train there, or right-click existing trains to suck them into the item. For this you also need the train.command.chest.use permission.

You can also specify a train spawn pattern for the train to put in the item, the same pattern as used on the spawn sign:

Give the player a new empty train chest item with a pre-configured train inside

Command:	/train chest mytrain
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Updating

You can also update an existing train chest item, without getting a new item every time. The player has to hold the chest item, then use one of the following commands:

Put a new train inside the item, spawn sign syntax

Command:	/train chest set mytrain
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Makes the item empty

Command:	/train chest clear
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Locks the item, preventing it from picking up trains when clicked

Command:	/train chest lock
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Unlocks the item so it can pick up trains again

Command:	/train chest unlock
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Gives the item a human-readable name to identify it

Command:	/train chest name My Train
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Makes the chest item have finite (1) or infinite number of spawns

Command:	/train chest finite yes
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Makes the chest item spawn the train with an initial speed of 2 blocks/tick

Command:	/train chest speed 2.0
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

Giving to other players

You can give a completely configured item to other players. This command can also be executed from command blocks, and supports the @p syntax for that purpose.

Gives a train chest item to a player

Command:	/train chest give PlayerName
Permission:	train.command.chest.create

This command supports all the same updating options but as flags.

Gives a single-use spawn chest that spawns the Intercity01 train. Can not be used to pick up trains.

Command:	/train chest give bergerkiller --finite --locked --train Intercity01
Permission:	train.command.chest.create
