Minecarts going off rails turn slightly

The bug

When a minecart falls off a rail, it does not align with the direction it fell but turns slightly.

Affects minecarts travelling north or south as well as east or west. The direction that the minecart turns to might be related to the north/west rule.
After some time, or reloading the chunks, the minecarts correct themselves.

Cannot reprodue.
The minecart snaps to the tracks, even if the dispenser is perpendicular to the tracks.
See screenshots

kumasasa

Works even if the track are surrounded by blocks like in your setup

i will make a video to explain better what the glitch is.

Kumasasa, this bug is about Minecarts going OFF the rails changing direction. (They are fine while on the tracks, but once they leave them, they angle very strangely.) I can certainly confirm this.

kumasasa

Ok, got it.
But still cannot confirm.
Regardless if minecarts change angle, when thay fall on tracks, they snap again to the tracks.

migrated

Kumasasa, you still don't quite get it. The minecarts turn a strange angle when off the tracks, which can cause dispenser problems. It has nothing to do with them not returning to rails.

kumasasa

Ok, giving up.

migrated

Confirmed, seems to be directional bug. Minecart going off track to the North/South turns slightly, while East/West seems fine. Adjusted title.

migrated

the weird thing is that it didnt do that in previous minecrafts, so it does have to do something with directional code of minecarts

migrated

I have seen this as far back as the 1.3 snapshots and it propably existed earlier. Can someone please remove Kumasasa's screenshots?

migrated

It was always an issue in multiplayer, so after the merge in 1.3 the problem came to singleplayer.

migrated

But Tails does.

Screenshots deleted.

Thanks.

This will probably be fixed when they release the 1.5 minecraft 'Redstone update', as they are updating minecarts etc

migrated

As this bug still exists in the latest snapshots, i want to add that it is direction dependent. In East-West direction the cart doesn't turn and falls straight off a rail. In north-south orientation it turns to the left.

Still a concern in 14w08a.

still an issue in 14w11b: http://youtu.be/do9Czzk15Y8 (may still be uploading, my internet sucks)

And in 14w21b.

Sonicwave

Confirmed for 1.8, only happens with North/South rails and turns to the west.

migrated

Confirmed for 1.9-pre1. As said previously, it only affects minecarts travelling North or South, and in both cases they turn towards West. It also affects all minecart variants. After waiting a while, or reloading the world/chunks, the minecarts correct themselves, and face the correct direction.

The issue in the MC-82647  bug report is a slightly different scenario, although similar. This report shows that the cart rolls off of the rail and turns slightly. In the MC-82647 report and also my issue (1.16.1), we remove the rail beneath (that person used a piston and I mined the rail) and the cart instantly (no actual turning viewed) changes direction (90 degrees). So I do not see how this is considered as a duplicate or that the MC-82647 report as being resolved.

Cannot reproduce either. Seems to have been fixed at some point between 23w12a and 1.20.2.
