Description:
Villagers can now be lured by players holding an emerald — no more chasing them around the village.
Villagers can also pick up dropped emeralds and trade like piglins. After picking one up, they'll hold it for 1.5 seconds, then pick a trade entry based on their profession level and drop the result for you.
Features:
Lure with Emeralds: Hold an emerald in your main or off hand, and any villager within 10 blocks will follow you like a cow follows wheat. Switch items, drop the emerald, or run more than 10 blocks away, and they stop.
Pick Up Dropped Emeralds: Employed villagers will walk over to dropped emeralds, look down at them for 1.5 seconds, and pick them up.
Appraise and Reward: After picking up an emerald, a villager will hold it for 1.5 seconds, then pick a trade entry based on their profession level and drop the result for you. Higher levels mean better odds of getting something good.
Nitwit Easter Egg: Nitwits also pick up emeralds, but their reward is completely random — bone meal, string, feathers, sticks, bread, seeds, even pufferfish. Pure luck.
Trade Bonus: Every successful appraise-and-drop gives the villager 2 seconds of Regeneration I and 1 XP. Enough XP and they level up automatically.
Death Drop: When a villager dies, they drop 40%~100% of the emeralds they've collected over time. No more losing them to the void.
