Crying Ghasts Mod FAQ

6 questions players actually ask, answered.

What does the Crying Ghasts Mod do?
It makes ghasts periodically cry and drop ghast tears when a player is nearby, letting you farm tears sustainably. This means you can collect tears without fighting the ghasts.
How close do I need to be for a ghast to start crying?
By default, players must be within 32 blocks of a ghast for it to cry. This distance is controlled by the maxDistanceToGhastBlocks config setting.
How often do ghasts drop tears with this mod?
The default delay between tear drops is 1200 ticks, which equals 60 seconds. You can change this with the ghastTearDelayTicks config setting.
Can I farm ghast tears without killing ghasts?
Yes, the mod is designed for collecting tears through proximity rather than combat. This makes it ideal for peaceful or resource-focused gameplay.
Are the mod's settings configurable?
Yes, both maxDistanceToGhastBlocks and ghastTearDelayTicks can be tweaked via config files. This allows you to customize balance and behavior.
Is the Crying Ghasts Mod part of a larger collection?
Yes, it is part of The Vanilla Experience. It is also described as a minimalistic mod.
