📖 Description

This Project got archived and replaced by Nice Name Tags, which let's you change a Villager's type more intuitive.

With Nice Villager Type Changer players can change a Villagers type by handing it one of the listed items. The type changes based on the item which was given out. Handing one of the items has by default a 20% chance of changing the type (Can be changed in the config menu). A Villagers type can only be changed when the Villager has no profession. Regardless of whether the type has changed, the item gets consumed when used.

Command to open the Config Menu
/function villager_type_changer
Starting with v2.0 the Items used to change a type can be defined in the config menu.

Default Items used:

  • Dead Bush: Desert
  • Jungle Sapling: Jungle
  • Oak Sapling: Plains
  • Acacia Sapling: Savanna
  • Snow: Snow
  • Mangrove Propagule: Swamp
  • Spruce Sapling: Taiga
