About this Mod
Villager Inspector
Installation
This mod is for Minecraft 1.20.1.
Drop the .jar file in the mods folder, that's it! If you're planning to play on a server, the server must have the mod installed too.
Optional Dependency
Villager Comforts - Makes villagers more rewarding when giving proper living spaces.
Features
This mod allows players to right-click villagers with a Spyglass to open an inspection menu. In this menu, there are several tabs with the following information:
Info Tab
- Job type
- Villager type (what type of village they come from)
- Whether they're willing to have a baby
- Their inventory
- Their bed location
- Their job location
Standing Tab
- Their progression to the next tier.
- Your standing with that villager
Comforts Tab (if you have Villager Comforts installed)
- Their overall comfort score.
- Attributes that make up their comfort score.
- Problems that are detrimental to their comfort.
Can you backport to version X?
I'd love to, but not for every version. This is my first mod and I'm not quite sure how to best tackle multiple versions yet, so it may take a while when I eventually get to it. For now, it'll be available on 1.20.1.
I found a bug!
