šŸ„– Villager Linker šŸ„–

Tired of villagers linking to the wrong beds? Sick of trying to figure out which brewing stand or lectern a cleric or librarian has actually claimed? Villager Linker is a lightweight, highly intuitive, and powerful Fabric mod that gives you full, manual control over your villagers' beds and workstations using just a simple Stick!

No more convoluted setups or breaking blocks repeatedly. Take charge of your trading halls, iron farms, and custom villages with precision and beautiful visual feedback.

šŸš€ Key Features

  • šŸ” Detailed Villager Inspection: Sneak (Crouch) + Right-Click any villager with a stick to open a clean, custom GUI screen showing their current profession, active Bed, and active Workstation (along with exact coordinates!).
  • šŸ”— Manual Job & Bed Assignment: Manually link a villager to any bed or workstation of your choice. The mod instantly overrides and releases any previous occupant, locks the trade station profession, and paths the villager directly to their new station.
  • āŒ Instant Unlinking: Free up occupied beds and workstations in a single click from the UI, or by sneak-right-clicking blocks with a stick when not in linking mode.
  • šŸŽØ Spectacular Visual Highlighting & Trails: Need to find where a villager's bed or job site is? Trigger a beautiful, high-density particle beam and glowing block outline that guides you directly to the target through walls!
  • šŸ”’ Anti-Decay Manual Lock: Manually linked workstations are automatically locked on the server to prevent villagers from randomly losing their profession or claiming another workstation.
  • āš™ļø Fully Configurable: Easily customize highlight styles (HIGHLIGHT, PATH_PARTICLE, or BOTH) and toggle whether crouching is required for linking in-game or via ModMenu.

šŸ“– How to Use

1. Inspecting a Villager

  • Hold a Stick in your hand.
  • Sneak (Crouch) + Right-Click on any villager.
  • This opens the Villager Linker GUI, displaying their active connections and coordinates!

2. Linking a Villager to a Bed or Workstation

  • Open the villager's GUI by crouching and right-clicking them with a stick.
  • Click the Link button. The screen will close, and you will enter Linking Mode.
  • Walk to the bed or workstation block you want to link them to.
  • Sneak + Right-Click the block with your stick.
    • Beds: Dynamically links the villager to the bed (automatically targeting the head block).
    • Workstations: Dynamically assigns the corresponding profession to the villager and locks it, clearing any existing owner from that block.
  • You will see a beautiful particle beam trail connecting the villager to the block as confirmation!

3. Finding and Highlighting Linked Blocks

  • Open the villager's GUI using the stick.
  • Click Show Linked Blocks.
  • For the next few seconds:
    • The villager will glow (visible through blocks!).
    • A high-density particle beam will connect the villager to their bed and job site.
    • The targeted bed/workstation will be outlined in a glowing wireframe of magical particles!
    • Note: Beds display a mystical purple Witch/Soul particle theme, while Workstations display a vibrant green/yellow Wax/Composter theme.

4. Unlinking & Clearing Blocks

  • From the GUI: Open the villager screen and click Unlink Bed or Unlink Workstation to instantly clear their memory and release the POIs.
  • Directly in World: If you aren't currently linking a villager, Sneak + Right-Click any bed or workstation block with a stick to instantly release it (clear its Point of Interest reservation), making it instantly available for other villagers!

šŸŽØ Visual Themes

The mod provides three distinct visual types, which can be configured inside the settings:

  1. HIGHLIGHT: Outlines the bed/workstation block in a stunning, high-density particle wireframe cage and highlights the villager with a glowing outline.
  2. PATH_PARTICLE: Spawns a thick, bright beam of color-coded particle streams directly between the villager and their block.
  3. BOTH (Default):** The ultimate diagnostic tool. Shows both the particle pathing beam and the block wireframe highlighting simultaneously!

āš™ļø Configuration Options

Configure your experience in-game using the Settings button in the main GUI or via the ModMenu screen:

  • Visuals: Cycle between HIGHLIGHT, PATH_PARTICLE, and BOTH.
  • Require Crouch: Toggle whether crouching is required to perform linking interactions in the world (Default: True to prevent accidental clicks while holding sticks).

šŸ”§ Requirements & Installation

  • Platform: Fabric Loader
  • Dependencies:
  • Installation: Simply drop the .jar file into your Minecraft mods folder along with the Fabric API. Works beautifully on both singleplayer worlds and dedicated multiplayer servers!
