Villager Enhanced

Half a minute's warning, and a way to find the last one.

Added

You are warned before a raid, not during it

• A raid does not simply begin. Carrying Bad Omen into a village starts a thirty second countdown, and only then does the raid break. Nothing in the game tells you this is happening. Now it does.

  An omen hangs over the village. It breaks in 30 seconds.

• You are also told when the raid starts, and whether the village held.

• Deliberately three messages and no more. A raid runs for minutes, and a line per wave turns a warning into a running commentary.

Villagers react to it

• Walk into a village carrying an omen and they are afraid of you.
• They say something different while a raid is coming, while it is happening, and once it is won.
• This does not depend on the notification setting. Turning off chat messages asks for less noise, not for villagers to ignore an attack.

Ringing the bell lights up the raiders

• The last raider spawning badly and getting stuck out of sight is the thing that drags a raid out. Ring a bell during one and every raider in it glows for thirty seconds — at any distance, through walls and rock.
• Vanilla technically does this already, for three seconds, within 48 blocks, and only if a raider is already within 32 — which is the raider you had already found.
• The bell also tells you how many are left, which is the part that still helps when a raider is too far away to be drawn at all.
• Adjustable, or off, under Raids in the settings.

Notes

• No protocol change; 0.13.0 talks to 0.12.0 clients and servers.
• Requires Minecraft 26.2 and NeoForge 26.2.0.48-beta, as before.
• Zombie sieges are deliberately not announced. The game gives no signal until a second or two before the zombies arrive, and a warning that lands with the thing it warns about is not one.
• Existing worlds need nothing.
