Dynamic Villager Trades
With Dynamic Villager Trades, villagers change their offers based on how players have traded with them before.
What it does
Villagers adjust their trades according to earlier player interactions, so a villager can become specialized over time through deliberate trading. The aim is to replace large trading halls full of mostly useless offers with a smaller set of trades that matches what a player needs. Server-side only: players join without installing it, and only the server runs the mod. Released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so the code is not open source. Files exist for Fabric and Forge across game versions 1.20 – 1.21.1.
