Ghast Direction Mod (1.21.7, 1.20.1) is a simple yet effective client-side mod that tweaks how Ghasts behave when stationary. In the vanilla game, Ghasts always turn to face south when not moving, which can look awkward or unnatural especially in custom builds, maps, or cinematic scenes. This mod corrects that behavior by allowing Ghasts to retain their facing direction when idle, resulting in more consistent and immersive visuals.
Features:
- Fixes the vanilla behavior where Ghasts automatically face south when not moving.
- Ghasts now maintain their last facing direction, even when stationary.
- Useful for custom maps, mob showcases, or improving immersion in the Nether.
- Lightweight and client-side only does not affect server compatibility.

Why use Ghast Direction Mod?
This mod is perfect for builders, map creators, or anyone who values visual consistency in their Minecraft world. The forced south-facing behavior of stationary Ghasts in vanilla can break immersion or ruin the aesthetics of a carefully designed scene. With Ghast Direction Mod, you maintain full control over how Ghasts appear, without altering any of their other behaviors or game mechanics.
