Description
Who has Mending?
A client-side utility mod that visualizes villager trades (only enchanted books) as nameplates above their heads. No more signs, no more manual naming, and no more forgetting "Who has Mending?".
Key Features
- Auto-Detection: Automatically records trade information just by opening the trade screen.
- Virtual Nameplates: Displays what matters most (e.g., [10]Mending) directly above the villager's head.
- Smart Filtering:
- First Book Only: Only displays the first (topmost) enchanted book in the trade list.
- Enchanted Books Only: Ignores junk trades like paper or glass.
- Librarians Only: Only tracks Librarians, ignoring farmers or clerics.
- Empty Trade Hiding: If a Librarian has no enchanted books, no nameplate is shown.
- Data Persistence: Trade data is saved per world/server. Your records won't disappear!
- Customizable: Toggle display with a keybind (Default: 'H', customizable in Controls).
