Minecolonies - Stop Complaining
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20–1.21. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
Disables only the MineColonies citizen complaint about walking a long way home from work, without changing happiness, pathfinding, or AI behavior.

No Colonies Long Commute
Tired of MineColonies citizens complaining that they have to walk a long way home from work? This lightweight compatibility mod removes only that notification — nothing else.
What it does
MineColonies workers can complain when their home is far from their workplace and they cannot reach it before night ends:
"I have to walk a long way home from work every day. It would be nice if I could live somewhere closer."
No Colonies Long Commute suppresses that complaint via a targeted Mixin patch. Citizens still go to sleep, work, and pathfind normally — they simply stop nagging about the commute.
What it does not change
- Happiness system (hunger, housing, safety, unemployment, etc.)
- Pathfinding or travel behavior
- Citizen AI, jobs, or work routines
- Colony mechanics, raids, or guards
- Any other citizen chat or notifications
How it works
This is a standalone patch mod. It does not modify, fork, or recompile MineColonies. At runtime, it intercepts the single notification trigger inside CitizenSleepHandler.shouldGoSleep() — the method responsible for this specific complaint.
