Minecraft – MInecart Roller Coasters in Minecraft PE

minecraft-bedrock-edition

I am currently attempting to build a roller coaster in Minecraft PE, and I know how to place the blocks. I wanted to make a straight drop down into the ground. Is that possible?

Best Answer

No, minecraft rails can only be in a 45 degrees angle to the ground or completely flat. To make a straight drop, you need to literally make the minecart get off the tracks, and fall on another rail.

         <-
        _____
     |       \
 <-  V        \     <-
  _____/       \________

The arrows mark the direction of the minecart, the /, \ and the _ are the rails

The "landing" rail needs to be an angled one, or the minecart simply stops, when it lands on it.
