            <title>[MC-714] Empty minecarts lose momentum too fast.</title>
                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-714</link>
                <project id="10400" key="MC">Minecraft: Java Edition</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Empty minecarts and storage minecarts currently lose 4% of their momentum every tick, or 56% every second. They&apos;ve always done this, but before 1.6 it was easy enough to compensate by using a stronger booster. However, powered rails always apply a constant acceleration of 1.2 m/s/tick.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With this level of drag, an empty minecart can never move at maximum speed for more than 1.6 seconds after leaving a stretch of powered rails of any length (and it will stop completely after a few more seconds). This makes powered rails impractical for boosting empty carts and storage carts, unless you&apos;re in creative as one powered rail is required every 4 blocks to maintain maximum speed. (compare to 1 every 36 for players)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The only alternatives I&apos;ve found for empty cart propulsion are powered carts (which are very slow and must be fueled manually) and spin boosters (which are very unreliable and likely to be removed).&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;PS. I would have made this issue an Improvement, but the issue creation form won&apos;t let me select any type other than Bug.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;That&apos;s because they are not accepting suggestions through the bug tracker. Just bug reports. Currently, the correct place for suggestions is the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum/1-suggestions/&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;Minecraft Forums suggestions board&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
