About

Description

Ghaster is a small data pack that makes named happy ghasts fly faster while a player is riding them. Give a happy ghast a name with a name tag, hop on, and it flies at a multiple of its normal speed. Hop off and it goes back to normal.

What it does

  • Name a happy ghast one of the names below, using a name tag.
  • While someone rides it, the ghast's flying and movement speed are multiplied.
  • The boost ends as soon as the rider dismounts. Unridden ghasts are never affected.
  • Only the ghast is changed. Nothing is applied to the player, and there are no new items, blocks or commands.

Speeds

Pick a tempo:

Name Tempo Speed
Adagio slow 2x
Allegro medium 3x
Presto fast 4x

Or name your ghast after a famous flyer:

Name Speed
Pegasus 2x
Toothless 3x
Falkor 4x

Names are case-sensitive and must match exactly. A ghast with any other name is not boosted.

Install

  1. Download the zip and put it in your world's datapacks folder. On a server, use the world folder on the server.
  2. Run /reload in game, or reopen the world.
  3. Name a happy ghast and ride it.

Tested on Minecraft: Java Edition 1.21.11 through 26.3.

Good to know

  • This is a data pack, so it works in singleplayer and on servers, with nothing to install on the client.
  • Want to add your own ghast name? Edit data/ghaster/function/tick.mcfunction. The README explains how.
