Minecart Player Comparator Detection

If a player is in a minecart, a comparator on a detector rail should give an output, if there is a player in the cart.

    You can already detect if a minecart is empty. It's slower. So make a ramp that the minecart doesn't reach when it's empty, but does when someone is inside. It's like 1 powered rail at the bottom and like 4 or 5 blocks up. Used it a ton myself. Could move the powered rail a tile back if it's not perfect

    Actually, that's a good idea. Definitely voting for this.

    It could give off different redstone signals depending on what is in the minecart
