Better Wandering Trader Spawning
by PaiShoFish49
Better Wandering Trader Spawning lets server owners change how often and how soon a Wandering Trader appears in a world, through a configuration file.
What it does
The mod is a Fabric server-side option for adjusting when Wandering Traders arrive. Its configuration file is created the first time a world starts with the mod installed, and the spawn rate, spawn frequency and spawn delay or timer can then be edited there. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. The code is open source under the MIT License, and files exist for 1.21.7 only, with 1.0.0 as the latest build from 2025-08-11 on the beta channel.
Key features

How often a trader attempts to spawn can be changed to suit the pace of a server.
