The happy ghast will not be slow af anymore.
About this Mod

Faster Happy Ghast is a Mod / Data Pack that dynamically adjusts the flying speed of Happy Ghasts based on whether a player is riding them.


When a player mounts a Happy Ghast, the entity becomes faster and more responsive, providing a smoother and more thrilling flying experience. Once the player dismounts, the Ghast returns to its normal speed.
The behavior relies on modifying the entity’s flying_speed attribute:
- With a player riding: flying_speed = 0.1
- Without a rider: flying_speed = 0.05
The speed is updated in real time, ensuring a seamless transition between states and an immersive gameplay experience.
Configurable speed
The speed is now configurable by a scoreboard (only op players can change that).
The option has 3 level of speed:
- 1: 0.075
- 2: 0.1
- 3: 0.125
The option is configurable through this command
/scoreboard players set &speed fgh.config <1,2,3>
