What it does

Players who run the Villager Recruits add-on in a big modpack can hit a crash when they try to open the Recruits Debug GUI, and the cause is not always clear. This mod is a tiny patch aimed at that bug, so the debug screen opens without the crash. It is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and it runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it. Villager Recruits must be installed alongside it.

Key features

  1. Debug screen crash fix

    Stops the game from crashing when the Recruits Debug GUI is opened in a modpack.

  2. Targets a known Recruits bug

    Addresses a recruits problem that appears mainly in large modpacks, where the fault is hard to trace.

  3. Minimal footprint

    Covers one screen only, so it changes nothing else in the Villager Recruits behavior.

What the author says

What does this mod do? This tiny mod fixes a bug in the recruits mod that sometimes occurs in bigger modpacks that causes the game to crash unexplainably when trying to open the Recruits' Debug GUI with a recruit spawn egg. As you can imagine, spawning loads of troops becomes very annoying very quickly without this…
