Why would you like the mod added?

I run a small server of about 10 people on at any time, on average, 40 villagers are loaded at any given time and take up anywhere from 10-85ms due to their attempt at pathfinding. Easy villagers allows you to pickup and store villagers inside the trader block, so they do not have a pathfinding qi anymore, I would love a way to keep our villagers on the server without having Massive Tps drops from villagers.

I saw issue #640, maybe leave only the trader and breeder blocks enabled and put them as a midgame item, say mekanism diamond alloy or something simular?

I'm sympathetic to the issue, but I still don't want to add the mod.

Perhaps we can find a way to allow players to disable villager AI, what do you think?

[TemperedFool]

Would Create Seats or IF Stasis Chamber serve that function?

[Discomanco]

That could maybe cause issues with interacting with workstations.
A vanilla method is to put magma blocks under their workstations (assuming 1x1 holding chambers), which would block their pathfinding further than 1 block

[TemperedFool]

Yeah but once their profession is locked in, they don't need their workstations right?

[Discomanco]

They need their workstations to restock

[TemperedFool]

This is why I don't run a villager farm 🤣

I tried using commands to disable Ai and that also removes their ability to restock unfortunately.

I can confirm that they restock fine while seated in a Create seat, and this disables their pathfinding AI as well.

Personally recommend the server getting together and creating a public trading hall, and have them set on create seats which disables their pathfinding, but they are still able to restock with adjacent workstations

[MuteTiefling]

Absolutely. Servers are the best place to share resources like that... Same goes for things like Mek Fission/fusion. Why do you need 1 per player?

It's a perfect excuse to go have fun building a big building together that you can all enjoy.

If I may, there are also servers like the ones I play with my friends where the whole server is about PVP, raiding, etc.

If you’re going to go the route of recommending the create seats you should add it as a loading screen tip.

[tyler489]

we setup a trading hall, I was unaware create seats would allow them to still restock, unfortunately they can't breed while seated, so still going to have them moving while trying to get more

[ghost]

I personally think create seats should be disable because they allow you to cheese bosses. Plus Easy Villagers just allows for compact less laggy villagers. If you don't want the other stuff like iron farms just disable them. Breeders and traders are all we need since they help reduce lag a ton. It's a pretty small QoL mod

[jlfree12]

can’t you also cheese bosses with minecarts/boats etc.

[tyler489]

Yep, thats all I wanted, but oh well.

[MuteTiefling]

You're always free to add it yourself.
