i set up an automated farm like the one i saw here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzDvTZUQXZw)
The only difference being i set up a rail system and my redstone switch from my base.
What I expected to happen was...:
the wheat to fall onto the rail system and be transported to my base so i could sell it to villagers.
What actually happened was...:
my rail system stopped moving all the carts kinda morphed together and then the would get stuck at corners. not picking up any of my wheat and just basically not working. I had 15 minecarts with hoppers and as long as they were spaced correctedly they would work but then they started to slow down. i have the powered rail on 60% of the course and one will travel around with no issue. even up to the point i flip the switch everything seems to be working fine. its once the hoppers start filling up they slow down and then the first carts group and usually send one cart flying backwards. i set it up with a failsafe so they can only go back so far but then the group more aggressively utiliave15crin one spot and its not moving. i have 5 fields working with 12 tiers of 7*8 wheat each, it should be close to 4500 wheat if i use any less than 15 hoppercarts i don't think i'll be able to get them into a chest before it goes away. in my last attempt i tried to use a minecart with a furnace to push them. unfortunately the powered rail throws the hopper carts faster than the furnace and then when they do come back they just slam into that cart and group there. weve had a similar issue with villagers in minecarts me and my friend had 178 villagers on a MASSIVE trackand in the end they just had so much speed they just started going in opposite directions(100 in one direction, 78 in the other) and would slam and overlapso i had 15+ villagers in minecarts together that i couldn't trade with any one specifically.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. get 178 villagers in carts all going in the same direction in a huge loop. eventually they middle ones bounce off and take half and go the other direction. causing the two groups to slam into each other making them overlap and get stuck on corners.
2. i can start a multiplayer map with my map and show you where its having issues.
3.

Hey, unsure, the map crashed and I can't get it back to working, may need to buy a new computer to be able to test if it works
