Change minecart speed using blocks under rails

FastMinecarts

GitHub Release Modrinth Downloads

Simple plugin for Paper servers that changes the speed of minecarts depending on the block beneath the rails.

I haven't tested on Spigot... might work.

Features

  • Configure which blocks affect speed.
  • Choose the minecart speed for each block.
  • Slow minecarts back to vanilla speed when player disembarks.

Installation

To install FastMinecarts, follow these steps:

  1. Download the plugin JAR file from Modrinth or the Releases page.
  2. Place the JAR file in the plugins folder of your Paper (or Paper fork) server.
  3. Start the server and verify that the plugin loaded successfully.

Configuration

The plugin can be configured via the config.yml file located in plugins/FastMinecarts.

The following configuration options are available:

  • blocks - List of blocks and their corresponding modified speed.

Default Config:

# List of blocks and their corresponding maximum minecart speeds
# Blocks must be from https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/Material.html
# The default minecart speed is 0.4
blocks:
  GRAVEL: 0.8
  SOUL_SAND: 0.2

Usage

FastMinecarts plugin does not yet have any commands or permissions. Simply install and configure the plugin on your server to start using it.

When a player enters a minecart on rails above configured blocks, the speed is modified.
