Fast Barter
by Team Kyt
Fast Barter makes piglin bartering resolve instantly, so a trade completes right after a piglin receives gold, with no waiting time.
What it does
Piglins normally hold gold for a while before giving their loot. Fast Barter removes that delay, so each trade resolves at once and bartering farms produce items much faster. The vanilla bartering table and loot itself stay unchanged; only the waiting is removed.
The mod is a lightweight datapack rather than a loader mod, so it can be used on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt alike. It is built for servers and survival worlds, including speedrunning and resource farming. Players who prefer the standard pace can simply leave the datapack out.
Installation is a datapack placed in the world's datapacks folder, followed by the reload and confirmation steps listed in the instructions. Removal is the same process in reverse. Files are published for 1.21 – 26.3 on 17 release versions, and the latest file targets 26.3.
Key features
Instant piglin trades
A trade finishes as soon as a piglin receives gold, so no time is spent waiting for the piglin to drop its loot.
Vanilla bartering kept intact
The trade table, odds and loot stay the same as in vanilla; only the delay between giving gold and receiving items is removed.
Faster large-scale trading
Bartering farms that need many trades run far quicker, which suits resource gathering on survival servers.
Datapack installation
The mod is added through the world's datapacks folder and enabled with a reload, and it can be removed the same way.
