Speed Happy Ghast

by kiwiKcz

Speed Happy Ghast makes the Speed effect change how fast a happy ghast moves, which vanilla Minecraft does not do.

What it does

In vanilla Minecraft a ghast stays at the same pace even under the Speed effect. This data pack changes that, so a ghast with the effect moves faster and becomes a more demanding target in a fight. The pack is distributed as a data pack, and it runs on the server, so a server running it needs it while players may leave it out. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the data pack is available as well; the latest file targets 26.2 and was released on 2025-09-22. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Faster ghast movement

    A happy ghast under the Speed effect moves at a higher speed than it does in vanilla.

  2. Livelier fights

    Ghasts that respond to Speed give players a more dynamic encounter when they engage one.

  3. Data pack delivery

    The change is shipped as a data pack, so it can be added to a world or server without a separate mod loader build.

What the author says

) # 📖 Description In vanilla Minecraft, the ghast does not get faster even when affected by Speed. This datapack fixes that by allowing ghasts to truly increase their movement speed with the effect, making them more challenging and dynamic to fight.
