Horse Carts adds nine craftable wagons for travel, cargo and themed settlements: standard, brewery, covered, forge, harvest, jail, storage, TNT and war carts. The models have moving wheels and detailed fittings, and can follow a supported animal when linked with a lead. Horses, donkeys, mules, camels and llamas are among the supported mounts.
Crafting guide
Start with the cart wheel, then combine a wheel and a book to obtain the Crafting Book. Use it to open the wagon menu and view each recipe. The in-game guide also opens through /scriptevent rpc:guide when commands are available. Craft the required cart item, place it and connect it to the animal before traveling.
Useful cart functions
The harvest cart gathers mature wheat, carrots, potatoes and beetroot into its inventory while moving through crops. The covered wagon supports sleeping and setting a respawn position in the Overworld when conditions permit, including the absence of nearby monsters. Its sleeping function follows the danger of beds in other dimensions, so use it as a bed only in the Overworld.
The TNT cart can be ignited with flint and steel and explodes after a short fuse, breaking nearby blocks. Other variants offer different cargo and decorative layouts. Activate both packs; the current download is version 1.2. The crafting guide is the reference for the ingredients of each wagon.
Cargo and harvesting details
The storage cart has 27 inventory slots; the harvest cart has five. Harvesting requires room in that inventory and movement at roughly two blocks per second or faster. Mature supported crops are collected and reset to their first growth stage, so the route can be used repeatedly. Empty the cart before the next run when it fills up.
Standard, brewery, forge, jail and war designs provide different visual layouts for roads, markets and caravans. The source examples and in-game book show their construction. The TNT cart has a fuse of about two seconds after ignition; its explosion is functional, not merely a decorative animation.
