Alternative Rails

Simple datapack that changes the recipes for all current rail types. Making them easier to craft and more of a choice when wanting to make a track.

Base Rails

One Iron in the middle and Six Sticks on the Outside. Now it only gives 8 Rails but it’s still 3x Cheaper than the vanilla recipe.

Powered Rails

One Gold Ingot in the middle, One Redstone Dust below it, and 6 sticks along the Outside. Only gives 4 rails now, but it’s still way cheaper. _~75% Less Gold needed compared to vanilla_

Activator Rails

One Iron Ingot, Two Redstone Dust, and 6 Sticks. Only gives 4 rails now, cheap cheap cheap. The redstone torch was just replaced with redstone since it was just an extra step, I get it might annoy some people for immersion but it can get tedious if you craft alot of them.

Detector Rails

An Iron Weighted Pressure Plate, One Redstone Dust, and 6 Sticks on the outside. Gives 4 rails now, way cheaper than vanilla. The stone pressure plate was replaced with an iron one, which is just 2 iron.

Made for my own worlds. I put it out on modrinth so I can download it a bit easier and so others can try it too if they want. No ai was used, thanks for trying it out.
