About this project
What does Ghast Direction add?

Fixes a bug where ghasts always face the same direction while not moving. In vanilla Minecraft, ghasts will always face the direction they are "moving", even when completely still, which always turns them to face South. This adds a check to prevent turning them when they are not moving!
