Happy Ghast Fireball
Happy Ghast Fireball lets a player riding a Happy Ghast fire ghast-style fireballs, aimed with a Blaze Rod.
What it does
A player riding a Happy Ghast can fire fireballs in the style of ghasts. A Blaze Rod is held and left-clicked to launch a fireball in the direction the player is facing, and the shots can be tuned on the server. The cooldown between shots, the fireball speed and the explosion power are all configurable, and a Nether-only mode is available as an option. Explosions can be set to deal no damage or knockback while still playing their effect, or to skip block destruction entirely, which suits servers that want combat without terrain damage. Fabric API is not needed; the mod is built for Fabric and NeoForge and runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything.
