Villager In A Bucket
Now villagers can be caught in buckets! This mod solves the problem of transporting NPCs - simply right-click a villager with an empty bucket, and they'll go inside. No more tedious boat rides across the sea or chasing after runaway traders.
Key Features
- Easy to use: Empty bucket + right-click on villager = done!
- Data preservation: All villager information is saved in the bucket - name, profession, available trades, and other characteristics
- Informative tooltip: Hovering over a bucket with a villager displays details about their type and features
- Variety of types: Supports regular villagers, wandering traders, and even zombie villagers
- Biome-style textures: Depending on the villager's region of origin, the bucket gets unique decoration (snow, desert, swamp, or savanna)
This is what the "catching" process looks like
