Do you think Ice Boats are ridiculous? Do you wish minecarts were a viable form of transportation? Then this is the mod for you!
Just build your rails on gravel blocks and your minecarts will go the same speed as ice boats.
- Fast Minecarts. Why settle for 8 blocks-per-second? Go 40, 50, 60 bps or more!
- Fully customizable. Configure different speed boosts for different blocks.
- No derailing. Minecarts automatically reduce to normal speed on curves.
- Serverside-only. Clients do not need to install the mod.
- Vanilla-friendly. Does not add new blocks to your world.
- Optional minecart speedometer
- Optional nerf for ice boats (boats on ice move the same as on land)
- The speed-up does not work on any curved tracks, including 'diagonal' sections.
- Top speed is increased but not acceleration. Use more powered rails to go faster.
- Speed is capped at 78 blocks-per-minute.
- The speedometer and ice boat nerf can be turned off in the config file.
- I will not be doing a Forge port of High-Speed Rail.
- High-Speed Rail was inspired by this Reddit post
- And also Gravel Carts which is great mod that implements the same idea a bit differently
- Idea for disabling ice boats borrowed from Ice Boat Nerf
- Idea for speedometer borrowed from Speedometer
