WealthyAndGrowth
by baguchi
WealthyAndGrowth gives villagers farming, fishing and eating routines, and changes how illager patrols spawn around villages.
What it does
Villagers in the mod take on jobs beyond their usual trades. A Farmer villager harvests pumpkins and watermelons, and can turn pumpkins into pumpkin pie. A Fisher villager goes fishing and picks up the fish it catches. Villagers can eat watermelon and pumpkin pie, and a villager with low health will eat food to recover, with which foods count set in the config.
Illager patrols are also reworked. Patrols come out more often, and the chance of a patrol spawning near a village can be raised or lowered in the config. The mod exposes its features as toggles, so server owners can keep the parts they want. It runs on Forge and NeoForge, and both the server and every player need it. Files are published for 13 release versions 1.18.2 – 1.21.10, with the latest Forge file for 1.20.1 and the latest NeoForge file for 1.21.10. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source is public.
