Where To Install

Happy Ghast Controls uses the same file for servers, clients, and singleplayer.

Install location	What you get
Server	Happy Ghast storage, Cargo Harness crafting, speed settings, permissions, and update notices.
Client	Riding controls, Cargo Harness texture, clearer visuals, and the inventory-key storage shortcut.
Singleplayer	Both server and client features.

Permissions are always checked by the server. Installing the mod on your client does not bypass server permissions.
