VillagersB
by notenlish
VillagersB is a Fabric quality-of-life mod for villagers that changes how breeding starts, how nitwit villagers are handled and how carrying and converting look.
What it does
Breeding is the main change. The mod removes the timer that normally applies before villagers can breed, so a villager breeder can be started with only two villagers. Players who build breeding setups no longer have to wait between attempts, and villagers are generally less of a chore to manage.
Nitwit villagers are converted into normal villagers in place of their usual lack of profession. Converting a nitwit drops an emerald on the ground, which players can pick up. Particle effects also appear while villagers are carried and while they convert, so those moments are visible in play.
VillagersB runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. It is published for Fabric only, as a single build for 26.1.1, and requires Fabric API 0.145.3+26.1.1 alongside Fabric Loader 0.18.6. The code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so the project is open source, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
