About Backported Minecarts
From ModrinthBackports 1.21.2 minecart mechanics
A mod that backports the minecart changes added in 1.21.2
It adds:
-The ability for minecarts to jump from slopes.
-A smoother looking animation when mid-air.
-A fix to minecarts rotating incorrectly when the rail they are resting on are destroyed.
-A fix to minecarts rotating their server-side yaw incorrectly. (mostly affects commands and datapacks)
NOTE: 1.21 version works with Sinytra Connector (which is why it is labeled as a Neo/Forge mod) but not the 1.20.1 version for some strange reason
Also, version 1.2.0 is in beta, I lost the original source code but I try to make it more accurate to the 1.21.2+ minecarts with its rebuild.
