Faster Minecarts

This mod aims to balance the speed of vanilla minecarts compared to the other means of transportation available.

If you like the thought of building long railways interconnecting your world, but feel that you are hampering yourself because the fastest horse can reach almost double the speed a vanilla minecart can while requiring close to no resources at the same time, then hopefully this mod can remedy that.

This mod adds the option to increase the speed of vanilla minecarts from 8 m/s up to 30m/s.

To prevent minecarts from derailing at high speeds they will be slowed down automatically when a corner is detected ahead. You can also slow them down manually by placing soul sand beneath the rails (thanks to SFort for the idea!).

The maximum speed and the automatic slow down is configurable in the options (Mod Menu recommended).

This mod now requires Fabric API and Auto Config.
