Faster Happy Ghast
by Diesse
Faster Happy Ghast changes how quickly a Happy Ghast flies once a player is riding it, and returns it to normal speed after dismounting.
What it does
When a player mounts a Happy Ghast, its flying speed attribute rises 0.05 – 0.1, so the mount responds faster and flies more smoothly. Once the player dismounts, the speed drops back to the default. The change is applied in real time, so the switch between the two states happens without a pause.
The mod is a data pack, so it works on servers that load data packs and is also offered for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.3, with the latest file for 26.3. The server must run it, while players may leave it out. The mod is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and is not open source. A configuration option is available through a command.
Key features
Rider-based speed
Flying speed is raised while a player rides a Happy Ghast and lowered again after dismounting.
Attribute modification
The behavior works by changing the entity's flying speed attribute rather than adding a new mount type.
Command option
A setting can be adjusted through a command, so server owners can tune the behavior without editing files.
