Happy Ghast Overdrive
by makson4986
Happy Ghast Overdrive raises how fast a happy ghast flies through a new harness enchantment and a higher top speed, and the changes take effect on any Fabric server that runs the mod.
What it does
The mod adds a new enchantment called Aerial Swiftness that can be applied to a happy ghast's harness. Each level raises the mob's flight speed, with the highest level reaching the maximum speed listed by the mod. Average speed sits near 14 to 15 blocks per second, and the top speed reaches 17.5 blocks per second once the enchantment is at its maximum level.
The mob slows down when it is tired, so the enchantment matters most on long flights. Trading with piglins and exploring bastion treasuries are described as ways to obtain the enchanted items that make the faster harness possible. The server applies the speed rules, so one install covers every player who rides a happy ghast there, and neither players nor servers need anything extra.
Installation is needed on the server, while players may add the mod for extra features. The mod is released under the MIT License as open source. Files cover 1.21.6, 1.21.7, 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, with 1.1.5+26.3 for 26.3 as the latest build.
Key features
Aerial Swiftness enchantment
A new enchantment for the happy ghast harness raises flight speed, with several levels that stack the effect.
Higher top speed
At the maximum level the mob reaches 17.5 blocks per second, faster than the vanilla happy ghast.
Tired state slowdown
When the happy ghast becomes tired it slows down, so the enchantment changes how long flights feel.
Piglin and bastion sources
Enchanted items can come from trading with piglins or from bastion treasuries, so players have more than one route to the upgrade.
