Minecart with Command Block (item).png

The Minecart with command block item is normally only obtainable through commands. The Minecart with command block item was obtainable in 2 April Fools snapshots. The Minecart with command block can be placed on rails to create the Minecart with Command Block (Entity), but it will not be created with commands unless the player has cheats enabled or level 2 operator status.

Warning: April Fools' 
This feature requires April Fools' versions which may require file renaming or file deletion to load. See the Loading April Fools' Versions tutorial for more information.

In the April Fools' version 22w13oneBlockAtATime, Endermen spawn with random blocks and random block states. The Minecart with command block item cannot be directly spawned because it is an item, not a block. However, the generic_item_block that exists exclusively in this version has a block state for every single item in the game, including the Minecart with command block item.

This means that the chance for an Enderman spawning with the Minecart with command block item is very rare. There are 902 equally likely blocks, and generic_item_block is just a 1/902 chance. Then, there are 1105 different values that the generic_item_block can be set to. So, for the Minecart with command block item, the chance is a 1/902 * 1/1105 = 1/996710 (≈0.0001%) chance of it spawning.

The April Fool's snapshot 23w13a_or_b introduces a plethora of ways to obtain every block and item in the game, including the minecart with command block item. These include:

  1. The egg_free vote, when applied, will allow chickens to lay any block or item in the game (without NBT). This means all chickens have the chance of laying the minecart with command block item.
  2. The fish_anything vote, when applied, will allow any item from the creative menu (not the operator tab, with NBT) to be fished (combine with the buff_fishing vote to greatly increase fishing speed). What this means is that there is a chance that the minecart with command block item can be randomly fished.
  3. The give_item vote, when applied, will give every online player a random amount of any block or item in the game (without NBT), meaning that you could have the minecart with command block item randomly given to you.
  4. The replace_items vote, when applied, will replace all items in online players' inventories with any block or item in the game (NBT of the original replaced item is preserved). This allows for the minecart with command block item with Any NBT.
  5. The replace_loot_drop vote, when applied, will replace all loot drops of a random block or item with any block or item in the game (if the original item that is being dropped has NBT, it will be preserved). This is also another method for the minecart with command block item with Any NBT.
  6. The replace_recipe_output vote, when applied, will replace all recipes for the given item with any block or item in the game (NBT is preserved if the original output item is supposed to have NBT.) This is yet another method for the minecart with command block item with Any NBT.
  7. The villager_gem vote, when applied, will replace all emeralds in all loaded villager's trades with any block or item in the game (without NBT). This means that you can get a villager that trades the minecart with command block item, allowing for infinite amounts of the minecart with command block item.
  8. The basalt_gen_replace, cobblestone_gen_replace, obsidian_gen_replace, and stone_gen_replace votes, when applied, replace the block of their respective fluid interaction with any block in the game, allowing for blocks in invalid positions and the placement of operator-only blocks such as the Command Block.
