If none is set, the train is spawned based on what side is powered by redstone.  <\/p>\n<p>If you use `[cart]` instead of `[train]`, a train will be spawned at the exit cart by cart.  <\/p>\n<p>###

sign represents a portal entrance.<br \/>A portal of this type requires a `portal-out`-sign that has the same channel name.<br \/>Any number of `portal-in`-signs can be created for one channel. |<br

whether items and mobs are transported.<br \/>\nYou can use them at the entrance as well as at the exit or both.<br \/>\n&#8211; `!mobs` means mobs are killed<br \/>\n&#8211; `!items` means items are killed<br \/>\n&#8211; `-mobs` means mobs are ejected<br \/>\n&#8211; `-items` means items are dropped<\/p>\n<p>## Pathfinding across servers (BungeeCord)<br \/>\nWith a little extra work, it is possible to reach destinations on another server.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you want to drive from server1 to a destination on server2,<br \/>\nyou need to create a destination on server1 that leads to the portal, which leads to server2.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s name it server2 as well.  <\/p>\n<p>Now you create a route for the train, which first contain the destination: `server2` and then afterwards,<br \/>\nthe destination you want to reach.<\/p>\n<p>Thats it!<\/p>\n<p>If you use TC-Destinations to manage your destinations, it will do the routing part for you.<\/p>\n<p>## Libraries used<br
