Turbo Ghasts
by Anxietie
Turbo Ghasts is a Fabric data pack that adds an Aerodynamic enchantment, which raises the flying speed of happy ghasts when a player rides one with an enchanted harness.
What it does
The Aerodynamic enchantment applies only to harnesses and has levels 1 to 3. A player can obtain the enchanted book from bastion treasure chests, trial chamber vaults or a librarian villager. The flying speed of a ridden happy ghast follows the formula 50 + m × n ÷ 1000, where n is the Aerodynamic level and m is a configurable multiplier whose default is 20. Speed only increases for the rider, so a ghast without a rider is unaffected.
The multiplier is set with a scoreboard command and is divided by 10 in the calculation, so a value of 20 gives twice the effect and 15 gives one and a half times. The pack also includes functions to disable and re-enable it without the vanilla datapack command, and a function to uninstall it, which should be run before the datapack folder is removed from a world. Turbo Ghasts requires Fabric API and runs on the server, while clients can install it optionally. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. Files target game versions 1.21.9 – 26.1.2.

How it compares
Speed Happy Ghast is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt option that is server required with client optional, and it is released under All rights reserved. Faster Happy Ghast covers 1.21 – 26.3 on the same four loaders with a CC0 1.0 Universal license. Turbo Ghasts is open source, but it is a data pack that adds an enchantment rather than a standalone speed mod.
