Expanded Trade
A simple mod adding more offers to settlers.
About this Mod
The purpose of this simple mod is to add more variety to trading with villagers. The mod adds more offers for villagers at both beginner and higher levels, also based on offers from the base version of the game. This mod only adds new offers and does not remove old ones. All offers are tailored to the villager type (a Farmer sells what a farmer would, and not, for example, diamonds). Most of the new offers are completely new, but some are modeled on offers from the "Bedrock Edition", e.g., a Farmer sells bottles of honey, or from newer versions, e.g., you can buy a "name tag" from villagers.
Villagers with new offers:
- armorer
- librarian
- farmer
- cartographer
Sample offers:
Farmer:
- Emeralds --> Bottles of honey
- Emeralds --> Bone meal
- Wheat seeds --> Emeralds
Librarian:
- Emeralds --> Book with a feather
Armorer:
- Emeralds --> Armor for a horse (two variants)
- Emeralds --> Golden armor (full set)
and other offers...
Future versions:
- 1.20.1 forge - Unfortunately, I couldn't make the 1.20.1 Forge version, although that was the initial intention. If, however, I manage to fix it (unlikely), this version will appear here.
- 1.21.1 Neoforge
- 1.21.4 NeoForge
- 1.21.1 fabric - Perhaps (I'm not sure)

Server lagging with Expanded Trade – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Expanded Trade consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
