☁️ ClickGhasts
Claim, protect, and manage your very own Happy Ghast!
ClickGhasts is a lightweight plugin for Paper 1.21.11 that lets players claim Minecraft's native Happy Ghasts, control who can ride them, and protect them from damage.
Whether you want a personal flying companion or a shared mount for your friends, ClickGhasts gives you control over your Happy Ghasts with simple interactions, convenient GUIs, and configurable server settings.
✨ Features
- Claim Happy Ghasts — Shift + right-click an unclaimed Happy Ghast with an empty main hand to claim it through a simple GUI.
- Ownership protection — Protect claimed Happy Ghasts from damage, with administrative exceptions.
- Control who can ride — Owners can ride their ghasts and share access with trusted players.
- Trusted players — Add, remove, and list trusted players using commands or the in-game management GUI.
- Easy management — Shift + right-click your claimed Happy Ghast with an empty main hand to open its management menu.
- Movement lock — Claimed Happy Ghasts remain stationary when no authorized rider is controlling them.
- Optional pickup and placement — Store a Happy Ghast in a special spawn egg and place it again later. Disabled by default.
- Configurable limits and cooldowns — Adjust claiming rules, pickup settings, movement behavior, messages, and more.
- Persistent ownership — Claim information is stored on the entity, while trusted-player data is saved separately.
