Permanent Villager-Bed BindingVillagers can be permanently bound to a bed
Protected WorkstationsOther villagers cannot gain a profession from a bound workstation

HOW TO USE

Binding a villager to a workstation:

  • Hold a stack of workstation items in your main hand (e.g. a composter, lectern, blast furnace, etc.).
  • Right-click an unemployed villager. A brief ritual begins, shown by happy particles around them.
  • One item from your stack is now bound to that villager (the rest remain unbound).
  • Place the bound item as a block anywhere in the world.
  • The villager will navigate to their workstation and gain the corresponding profession.

Binding a villager to a bed:

  • Hold any bed in your main hand.
  • Right-click any villager (employed or unemployed). A brief ritual begins, shown by happy particles around them.
  • Place the bound bed anywhere in the world.
  • The villager will navigate to and sleep in that bed.

Finding the villager or workstation/bed:

  • Look directly at the villager or the placed workstation/bed.
  • Press V, a particle effect will be applied.
CONFIGURATION

If you have Mod Menu installed, you can customize your experience:

Particle Duration (seconds)Determines how long the `happy_villager` particles play around the villager during the binding ritual
Glow Duration (seconds)Determines how long the assigned villager remains highlighted with the glowing effect when the V key is pressed
REQUIREMENTS
  • Fabric Loader
  • Fabric API
  • Cloth Config API (1.21.x)
  • YetAnotherConfigLib (26.x)
  • Mod Menu (recommended for easy in-game configuration)
CLIENT & SERVER

Some functionality exists on both the client and the server, making the mod required for the server but optional for the client.

FREE & OPEN SOURCE

This is a completely free project. I'm not asking for donations or "buy me a coffee" contributions. If you enjoy the mod, the best way to support it is by:

  • Leaving a rating/review
  • Sharing it with friends
  • Reporting any bugs you find
