Pillagers
by Darkhax
Pillagers changes which villagers drop trade items when killed, giving a Forge-only way to collect them from a mob that players usually avoid.
What it does
With the mod installed, killed villagers can drop items from their trades. By default a player has a 5% chance to receive 1 to 3 trade items from a villager killed directly by the player. Items normally drop only when the player kills the villager directly, and the mod changes that rule so the drop chance is set by the configuration. Looting raises the chance per level, and a villager killed during a raid has an additional 15% chance to drop items.
Pillagers runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The mod is published for Forge only, with files for 1.12.2, 1.16.4 and 1.16.5, and its latest file, 3.0.2 for 1.16.5, was published on 2023-06-08 on the alpha channel. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker. The mod is configurable, and several of its values can be changed to suit a server.
