Minecraft player hones their own creative skills with the game’s newly added Happy Ghast mob and builds a fully functional train. In this design, players are able to ride on Happy Ghasts placed in minecarts and arranged like a train. Using these friendly mobs to their advantage, the creator successfully created a working transportation system in vanilla Minecraft that works flawlessly, showing just how you can repurpose the most unusual mobs for unique builds. According to the creators, the process took seven hours to perfect, but the resulting train could hypothetically be replicated simply by having patience and the resources in survival mode.

The builder had to use the NoAI console command while summoning Happy Ghasts to prevent them from moving randomly, thus making them neatly aligned. The train’s small but critical tweak made it look more cohesive and attractive, as these little technical tweaks can increase aesthetic outputs in complex builds. The Minecraft community has quickly adopted the Happy Ghast and has begun brainstorming even more ways to make use of the mob, such as floating building platforms and multiplayer transportation. In fact, it has grown to the extent that some have designed LEGO models of the creature.
