Merchants¶

The Merchant module is the “trading QoL + balance” part of Villager Overhaul.

It’s built around one idea:

You can get the trade you want, without breaking/placing a lectern 9000 times…
…but you pay for it, and the server can rebalance everything.

Features¶

Manual rerolls: reroll a villager’s offers for a cost.
Lock trades: protect specific offers so they never change.
Auto-search: request one or more items and let the villager reroll in the background.
Auto-trade: repeat certain trades automatically (quality of life).
Merchant stats: each villager gets 4 trading-related stats.

Quick start¶

Recruit a villager.
Open the trade screen.
Left-click the reroll button to reroll.
Right-click an offer row to lock/unlock it.
Right-click the reroll button to open the Auto-search catalog.

Ownership & server rules¶

Merchant controls are server-authoritative:

Only the recruiting player can use merchant controls on that villager.
Server config can rebalance costs, cooldowns, and limits.
Servers can disable the entire Merchant module.

See General - Server Config for global settings.
