    Basically allows you to set minecart speeds to three separate faster modes (Or normal... lol), pre-vanilla ruleset update. Enjoy!
    Minecarts used to suck before this data pack ;)

    ~~ SUPER FAST MINECARTS WITH FLAMES! ~~

    ================================================================================


    HEY THERE, MINECART RACER!
    --------------------------

    Ever wished your minecart could go SUPER FAST like a rocket?
    Well now it can! This datapack makes your minecarts zoom across the rails
    with awesome flame trails shooting out the back!

    ___________
    | |
    | ( o o ) | <-- You in your speedy minecart!
    | __ |
    |_____||____|
    O O ~~**FLAMES**~~


    ================================================================================
    WHAT DOES THIS DO?
    ================================================================================

    [​SPEED BOOST]
    When you ride over a POWERED RAIL (the gold ones with redstone),
    your minecart gets a speed boost! You'll zoom forward super fast!

    [​FLAME TRAILS]
    While you're boosting, cool flame particles shoot out the back
    of your minecart - just like a rocket ship!

    [​SMART SLOWING]
    Don't worry about crashing! The minecart automatically slows down
    when you go around corners or up/down hills so you don't fly off!

    [​CHOOSE YOUR SPEED]
    Pick how fast you want to go - from a little boost to SUPER SONIC!


    ================================================================================
    HOW TO USE - IT'S EASY!
    ================================================================================


    STEP 1: GET IN A MINECART
    -------------------------

    Just place a minecart on some rails and hop in!
    (Right-click the minecart to get in)


    STEP 2: HIT A POWERED RAIL
    --------------------------

    When your minecart touches a powered rail (make sure it has redstone
    power!), you'll get a speed boost with flames!

    ____
    |CART|
    |____|~~~~** WHOOOOSH! **
    OO
    =======P======= <-- P = Powered Rail (gold colored)


    STEP 3: ENJOY THE RIDE!
    -----------------------

    Zoom around your rail systems super fast! The boost lasts for a
    short time, then you go back to normal speed until you hit another
    powered rail!


    ================================================================================
    CHANGING YOUR SPEED
    ================================================================================

    Want to go faster? Or maybe slower? You can change speeds using commands!

    Just open chat (press T) and type one of these:


    +--------------------------------------------------+
    | |
    | /trigger mcfix_speed_normal |
    | ^ Turn OFF the speed boost (regular minecraft) |
    | |
    +--------------------------------------------------+

    +--------------------------------------------------+
    | |
    | /trigger mcfix_speed_fast |
    | ^ A little faster! (2 flames) - 20 tick boost |
    | |
    +--------------------------------------------------+

    +--------------------------------------------------+
    | |
    | /trigger mcfix_speed_faster |
    | ^ Pretty fast!! (4 flames) - 15 tick boost |
    | |
    +--------------------------------------------------+

    +--------------------------------------------------+
    | |
    | /trigger mcfix_speed_fastest |
    | ^ SUPER FAST!!! (6 flames) - 10 tick boost |
    | |
    +--------------------------------------------------+


    SPEED COMPARISON:

    Normal: o------>
    Fast: o------------>
    Faster: o-------------------->
    Fastest: o------------------------------>


    ================================================================================
    HIDE CHAT MESSAGES
    ================================================================================

    Tired of seeing "[​Minecart Fix] Loaded!" messages?
    You can turn them off!

    Type in chat:

    /trigger mcfix_hide_msg

    To turn messages back on, type:

    /trigger mcfix_hide_msg set 2


    ================================================================================
    TIPS AND TRICKS!
    ================================================================================


    TIP #1: MAKE A BOOST STATION!
    -----------------------------
    Put a few powered rails in a row to keep your boost topped up!

    ===P===P===P=== (P = Powered Rails)


    TIP #2: CORNERS AND HILLS
    -------------------------
    The minecart automatically slows down for corners and hills,
    so don't worry - you won't crash! It's smart!


    TIP #3: WORKS WITH ALL MINECARTS!
    ---------------------------------
    This works with:
    - Regular minecarts (for riding!)
    - Chest minecarts (for moving items!)
    - Hopper minecarts (for collecting items!)
    - Furnace minecarts
    - TNT minecarts (watch out!)


    TIP #4: FASTEST ISN'T ALWAYS BEST
    ---------------------------------
    Super fast is fun, but the boost doesn't last as long!
    Sometimes "Fast" or "Faster" is better for long trips!

    Fast: Slower speed BUT longer boost (20 ticks)
    Fastest: Super speed BUT shorter boost (10 ticks)


    ================================================================================
    TROUBLESHOOTING
    ================================================================================


    PROBLEM: "My minecart isn't going fast!"
    ----------------------------------------
    SOLUTION: Make sure you're hitting POWERED rails (the gold ones),
    and make sure they have redstone power (lever, torch, etc.)!


    PROBLEM: "I don't see any flames!"
    ----------------------------------
    SOLUTION: You might have particles turned off in your settings!
    Go to Options > Video Settings > Particles > All


    PROBLEM: "The commands don't work!"
    -----------------------------------
    SOLUTION: Make sure you type them exactly right, starting with /trigger
    If it says "unknown command", the datapack might not be loaded.
    Try typing: /reload


    PROBLEM: "It's too fast and I keep crashing!"
    ---------------------------------------------
    SOLUTION: Try a slower speed! Type: /trigger mcfix_speed_fast
    Or turn it off with: /trigger mcfix_speed_normal


    ================================================================================
    FOR SERVER ADMINS
    ================================================================================

    This datapack is very lightweight and won't cause lag!

    - Only runs checks on minecarts
    - Particles are rendered client-side
    - Automatically slows on corners (no flying off rails)
    - Players can control their own speed settings


    CHANGING THE DEFAULT SPEED
    --------------------------

    Default speed is set to FASTEST (3). To change the default, edit:
    data/minecart_fix/function/load.mcfunction

    Change the line:
    scoreboard players set #speed mcfix 3

    To 0 (off), 1 (fast), 2 (faster), or 3 (fastest)


    ADMIN-ONLY MODE (Restrict Speed Changes to OPs)
    -----------------------------------------------

    Want to prevent regular players from changing the speed?
    You can lock it so only server operators can change it!

    METHOD 1: In-game command (temporary, resets on reload)
    -------------------------------------------------------
    Run this command as an OP:

    /scoreboard players set #admin_only mcfix 1

    To allow players again:

    /scoreboard players set #admin_only mcfix 0


    METHOD 2: Edit the file (permanent)
    -----------------------------------
    Edit: data/minecart_fix/function/load.mcfunction

    Find this line:
    scoreboard players add #admin_only mcfix 0

    Change the 0 to 1:
    scoreboard players set #admin_only mcfix 1
    ^^^
    (also change 'add' to 'set' to force it)

    When admin_only is ON:
    - Players CANNOT use /trigger to change speed
    - Only OPs can change speed using scoreboard commands
    - The message hide trigger still works for everyone

    OPs can still change speed with:
    /scoreboard players set #speed mcfix 1 (fast)
    /scoreboard players set #speed mcfix 2 (faster)
    /scoreboard players set #speed mcfix 3 (fastest)
    /scoreboard players set #speed mcfix 0 (normal/off)
