VillagerBoost

🌾 VillagerBoost

Tired of vanilla villager mechanics ruining your server economy or annoying your players? Make the tedious villager management into something satisfying and fun! VillagerBoost is a modular plugin that gives server administrators full control over trading, breeding, and custom progression systems without the usual Minecraft headaches.

VillagerBoost works fully server-side, so all vanilla clients are supported automatically!

📦 Pocket Villagers

Sneak + Right-click with an empty hand to pick up any villager! They instantly turn into a custom spawn egg while securely saving all of their trades, levels, custom roles, and exact data into the item format.

🛑 Anti-Inflation & Infinite Trades

• Stable Prices: Lock trading prices permanently. This completely disables the annoying vanilla "demand" system so prices won't skyrocket no matter how frequently a trade is used.
• Anti-Trade Limit: Bypass the annoying vanilla trade locks! Players no longer have to wait until the next day to trade again after a villager locks their items.

⚙️ Customization & Settings

VillagerBoost comes with a highly lightweight and preconfigured config.yml setup. Read below how to customize it.

Note: By default, players need the villagerboost.pickup permission to lift villagers. You can disable this restriction in the config so everyone can do it!

⚡ Turbo Breeding

Speed up the villager breeding process significantly!

• Reset Cooldown: Parents can breed again right away without the vanilla cooldown (they still require valid food and nearby beds).
• Instant Adults: Customize the baby age directly. Set it to 0 for instant adults, or -1200 to make them grow up in just 1 minute!

Some Advice

• To pick up a villager, make sure your hand is completely empty to prevent conflicts with other block actions.
• While VillagerBoost is highly optimized, enabling infinite trades on massive economy servers is recommended to be paired with proper price balance tweaks!
