WePlay: Taken for a Ride — Train Collision Avoidance


Trains pick you up instead of running you over. Get hit by a train and you're scooped into the nearest empty seat and taken along for the ride. If every seat is full, you're bumped safely off the tracks instead.

Taken for a Ride — Train Collision Avoidance

Trains pick you up instead of running you over. 🚂

Standing on the tracks? Daydreaming about your next build? Not today, satan! When a train hits you, it doesn't kill you anymore. It scoops you up into an empty seat and takes you along for the ride.


✨ Features

  • Free rides, no squishing — Get hit by a train and you take no damage. You hop right into the car that hit you.
  • Finds you a seat — If that car's seat is already taken, you go to the nearest empty car on the train.
  • Keeps the schedule — Automatic trains stay automatic, so you're carried along wherever they were already headed. Hop out whenever you like!
  • Full train? No problem — If every seat is taken, you get bumped safely off the tracks onto the side you were standing on.
  • Works with any rolling stock — Locomotives, cargo wagons, fluid wagons, and artillery wagons, including modded ones.

⚙️ Settings

Show flying text Per player Shows a little "All aboard!" or "Whoa, close one!" over your character.

💡 Notes

  • Only collisions with trains are affected. Cars, tanks, and everything else still hurt!
  • If you're already in a vehicle, nothing changes.
  • Inspired by the old Magnet Trains mod mentioned in the Real Shuttle Trains description.
