HappyGhastFixer

​Fixes the issue where players connecting via ViaVersion / ViaBackwards (e.g., Minecraft 1.21 clients joining a 1.21.x+ / 26.2 server) are stuck and unable to control or fly the Happy Ghast. ​Due to missing or translated movement input packets across cross-version setups, clients riding Happy Ghasts often freeze in place. This lightweight, performance-friendly plugin overrides native vehicle handling and directly applies velocity based on the rider's look direction.

​🌟 Features ​Cross-Version Fly Control: Restores smooth Happy Ghast flying for players on older client versions. ​Lightweight & Fast: Uses efficient tick-based vector positioning without lag or heavy overhead. ​Plug & Play: Zero configuration needed—just drag, drop, and restart!

​📋 Requirements ​Paper / Purpur / Spigot server (Java 17+). ​ViaVersion & ViaBackwards (required to enable cross-version player connections). ​

🛠️ How to Install ​Make sure ViaVersion and ViaBackwards are installed on your server. ​Download HappyGhastFixer.jar and drop it into your server's /plugins directory. ​Restart your server.
