Are your villagers not spreading out? Here's an idea.

So you built a massive city and you want every nook and cranny to be populated by villagers. The way things work now, it is very difficult to have a village radius grow much farther than the minimum radius.

 

I've found that the following two changes to the core code can make this more feasible.

 

1.) Find the line in Villager.java that sets the object's home area. Remove the '0.6' so that the villager will explore the entire radius of the city, and not just 60% of it. This ensures that new doors farther away will be noticed.

 

2.) In Village.java, look for the function that removes dead and out-of-range doors. Find the line that tests to see if the door is still a door block. That test also checks to see if the door's internal timer has reached a certain number of ticks. You could remove that timer test, or make the doors last longer. Up to you.

 

Yes, this is a kludgy suggestion. No, it does not address all of the ways that this behaviour can be achieved. But it's the simplest change I've found.

If anyone is interested, I will type up a full explanation of how the village code works.

Yes, my ideas can be naive. But I'm hoping that speaking my mind will inspire those who know what they are doing!

I'd say one vote is enough! ;D

 

I'll start working on it immediately, and will link it here. I'm absolutely tired of people saying things like,

 

Oh hey, villagers are attracted to jack-o-lanterns/animals/paintings...

If you stalk them with a door they are more apt to spread into new buildings...

Forcing them into new buildings with rain will make the village radius expand...

    • So I saw that mixin is shipped as a library with forge, but is it available for 1.7.10 ?  
    • So I've read the EULA, and lets be straight...     If I split my modpack(of my mods, yeah I'm nuts) into several(many) individual mods(like just one boss) with minor additions(plus not working together), then have a complete/modpack version on patreon/onlyfans having each addon work together... Would people buy my idea?

    • Done, it still crashed. New log https://paste.ee/p/kYv6e
    • I am migrating a mod from 1.16.5 to 1.20.2 The version for 1.16.5 can be found here https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft For the block called automata_start, it uses TileEntities and has blockstates, model/block and textures on json files. This is currently working fine on 1.16.5 https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft/tree/master/src/main/resources/assets/automata For 1.20.2 I migrated the logic from TileEntities to BlockEntity. The mod is working fine. All blocks and Items are working with the correct textures except for the textures for each state of the automata_start block. No changes where made to the json files. This is the branch I am working on (there were some refactorings, but all is basically the same): https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft/tree/1_20/src/main/resources/assets/automata The only difference I can think that may be related is that i had to implement createBlockStateDefinition on the BaseEntityBlock: https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft/blob/1_20/src/main/java/br/com/isageek/automata/automata/AutomataStartBlock.java#L43 This is driving me crazy. I know the jsons are being loaded as I put a breakpoint at `net.minecraft.client.resources.model.ModelBakery#loadModel` and I can see BlockModelDefinition.fromJsonElement being called with automata_start. I also printed the state from the arguments of the tick function call and they look correct (https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft/blob/1_20/src/main/java/br/com/isageek/automata/automata/Ticker.java#L32 ): blockState Block{automata:automata_start}[state=loadreplaceables] In game, all I see is the no textures. I think it is weird it is not the "missing texture" texture so I think it may be related to the material, but I had no success tweaking it (https://github.com/beothorn/automataCraft/blob/1_20/src/main/java/br/com/isageek/automata/automata/AutomataStartBlock.java#L37).   public static final Property<AutomataStartState> state = EnumProperty.create("state", AutomataStartState.class); private final AtomicReference<RegistryObject<BlockEntityType<?>>> blockEntityType; private final Map<String, RegistryObject<Block>> registeredBlocks; public AutomataStartBlock( final AtomicReference<RegistryObject<BlockEntityType<?>>> blockEntityType, final Map<String, RegistryObject<Block>> registeredBlocks ) { super(BlockBehaviour.Properties.of().mapColor(MapColor.STONE).strength(1.5F, 6.0F)); this.blockEntityType = blockEntityType; this.registeredBlocks = registeredBlocks; this.registerDefaultState(this.getStateDefinition().any().setValue(state, AutomataStartState.LOAD_REPLACEABLES)); } @Override protected void createBlockStateDefinition(StateDefinition.Builder<Block, BlockState> stateBuilder) { stateBuilder.add(state); }     So my cry for help is, anyone has any ideas? Is there a way to easily debug this, for example somewhere where I can list the textures for a given state, or make sure this is loaded?   Thanks in advance for the hints
