 ### Features
 - Any spawner can be pushed into a Minecart buy pushing it with a piston
-- Spawner Minecarts have a max number of spawns and need to be re-charged by consuming nearby tall grass and flowers
-- Each world has a different set of good/bad flowers for recharging which need to discovered by particles emitted during the charging process
+- Spawner Minecarts have a reduced spawn rate for each nearby spawner minecart
