  • Works even on leveled/traded villagers
  • Resets their trade progression completely

5\. Villager Instant Upgrade

alt text

+ Increases villager's profession level immediately + Consumes 1 Emerald Block or 9 Emerald by default. Block will be consumed first. + Items and counts costs can be modified in serverconfig/tradetweaks-server.toml freely. it's convenient for some modpacks, to modify it to other mods' or custom items.

6\. Trade Selection

alt text

> This sounds rule-breaking, but I believe that repeatedly refreshing villager trades to get desired offers is a complete waste of the player's time – requiring no real cost except hours of grinding. > > Therefore, I don't consider this feature to break Minecraft's balance or gameplay integrity. As players, we should value our limited playtime and spend it on actually fun experiences.

+ Allows players to manually select available trades from villager's potential offer pool + Any trade with the same profession and profession level required, will be considered as an available trade. + Randomized category trades from mods are expanded into distinct item variants, so tag-like choices such as different logs or signs are all shown instead of one random example. + The replacement column has a live JEI-style search field.@ for mod names, # for tooltips, $ for tags, % for creative tabs, ^ for colors, and & for resource IDs. Spaces combine terms, | separates alternatives, - excludes a term, and quotes preserve phrases. Press Tab to focus the field and Enter or Esc to leave it. + Allow duplicated trades + Compatible with multiplayers + A Nether Star is required to upgrade your wand to use this mode. + Specially for librarian, if you select a trade of enchanted book, you will be allowed to choose all the max-level enchantments, with a higher chance of lower trade prices. This feature can be disabled in the server config.
