Changelog

[0.16.8-beta] - 2025-09-15

Added:

• #331 Config option ticksToDespawnIfUnseen (default 6000, 5 minutes): Despawn trainers if not seen by any player for the configured number of ticks

Changed:

• #330 (Non-persistent) trainers now despawn if unseen for more than 5 minutes (configurable)

• #328 Slightly adjusted trainer npc behaviour (small chance to hang out at a location for a few seconds)
• #327 Trainer Repel Rod can now be disabled by powering it with redstone
• #326 Trainer Repel Rod now additionally alters the behaviour of trainers in its area of effect causing them to wander away from it (now actually living up to its name)

Changelog

Fixed:

• #317 Waterlogging a Trainer Repel Rod causing a crash
