Certain blocks that can be powered do not launch minecarts on powered rails

Updated description by @unknown

When an opaque block is next to a connectable side of a powered rail, and the powered rail is activated by redstone power, a minecart on the powered rail should be propelled away from that block. This does not work with:

  • sea lantern

  • barrel

  • redstone block

Steps to reproduce

  1. Place a line of powered rails.

  2. Place one of the affected blocks at one end of the line.

  3. Place a minecart on the powered rail next to the affected block.

  4. Activate the powered rails with redstone power.

Expected result

The minecart is launched down the line.

Actual result

The minecart does not move.

demonstrates how most blocks that can be powered will also launch minecarts, but the affected blocks mentioned above fail. Simply open the world and flip the lever. For the barrel, due to MCPE-46742 you will have to break and replace to see this bug in 1.14.60. Note that the world is only desinged to only be run once, it does not have a simple reset.

Confirmed in 1.14.20. If you press a button that is on a sea lantern that is next to a powered rail with a minecart on it, the rail lights up as if it is powered, but it does not cause the minecart to move. If you replace the sea lantern with a solid block such as stone or a redstone lamp, the minecart will move.

Updated ticket for 1.14.60.

My minecart works, but it works without people in it.  everytime i try to get in, it goes for like two sec., then it kicks me off the minecart.

@@unknown Being kicked out of a minecart is not what this ticket is about. It sounds like you are using activator rails instead of powered rails.

I opened the world on 1.18.0.27 beta, and can confirm this is still an issue.
