This mod brings Cartographer villagers more in line with their Bedrock counterparts by making it so all purchased explorer maps lead to a unique structure. This makes individual Cartographers more useful as, for example, you can get infinite Trial Chamber maps from one Villager, instead of having to buy from a different villager each time.
Known Issues
- The first map bought from a villager after loading into a world freezes the world for a bit of time.
- Subsequent maps purchases may freeze the world for a few seconds.
- Explorer Maps currently ignore Villager discounts, meaning you will always pay full price for the map no matter what the UI shows.
This mod was built off BluSunrize's code used in their Villa La Revolution mod, so go check them out. https://modrinth.com/mod/villa-la-revolution (You don't need that mod for this mod to work.)
