Biome Tag Villagers

by TheEnderCore

Biome Tag Villagers changes how villagers pick their look, so their type follows biome tags a server owner sets instead of the fixed biome list in the game.

What it does

Villager types in vanilla are hard coded to biomes. This server-side mod replaces that with tag lists read from configuration, so a villager's variant is decided by which tags its biome carries. A biome can be given several tag lists, and the villager then picks randomly between the lists. The mod requires Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and it is open source under the MIT License, for 1.20 – 1.21.10 on Fabric and Quilt.

Key features

  1. Tag-based villager types

    Villager types are chosen from biome tags rather than the built-in biome assignments.

  2. Configurable tag lists

    Server owners set which tags map to which villager variant through configuration lists.

  3. Random choice between lists

    When a biome has several tag lists, the villager randomly selects one of them.
