lestx’s Standable Striders

About

lestx’s Standable Striders lets you stand on top of vanilla Striders, giving them platform-like behavior inspired by the Happy Ghast.

Instead of only being used as a lava mount, Striders become more useful for positioning, movement, and general Nether traversal. The goal of this mod is to expand what Striders can do without changing their identity as a vanilla mob.

Features

• Stand on top of Striders
• Happy Ghast-inspired platform functionality
• Expands the utility of vanilla Striders
• Simple and focused gameplay change
• Keeps the Strider’s original role intact

Why use this mod?

Striders are already useful for crossing lava, but their normal interaction is limited. This mod gives them an extra purpose by turning them into a more practical moving platform.

It is meant to feel like a natural extension of vanilla gameplay: small in scope, easy to understand, and immediately useful in the Nether.

Notes

• This mod modifies vanilla Strider behavior
• It does not add a new mob
• It is focused on gameplay utility
