This mod introduces a variety of new wandering traders to Minecraft, each with unique trades and mechanics. Below is a comprehensive guide to the features and functionalities of the mod.<\/p>\n<p>## Overview<\/p>\n<p>The Wandering Traders mod adds the following traders:<\/p>\n<p>1. **End Trader**<br \/>\n2. **Forest Trader**<br \/>\n3. **Animal Trader**<br \/>\n4. **Book Trader**<br \/>\n5. **Decoration Trader**<br \/>\n6. **Potion Trader**<br \/>\n7. **Exclusive Trader**<\/p>\n<p>### End Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: The End Trader allows players to recover lost loot (items that have been lost, destroyed, or despawned).<br \/>\n&#8211; **Invocation**: He can be summoned using an **End Bell**, which is a rare drop from Endermen.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Dynamic Pricing**: The price for recovering items is dynamic and based on the type of item lost.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Mechanics**:<br \/>\n    &#8211; Does not spawn naturally and cannot be found in the End.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Stays for **48,000 ticks** (approximately 2 Minecraft weeks) after being summoned.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Cannot be killed; if damaged by a player, he will teleport away. If damaged by a player linked to him, he will return to the End, destroying any untraded loot.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Linking**: Each End Trader is linked to a single player, preventing multiple players from recovering loot with one End Bell.<\/p>\n<p>### Forest Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades various seeds and saplings, including Nether saplings, as well as potatoes and carrots.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Appears in forests in the Overworld.<\/p>\n<p>### Animal Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades animal spawn eggs.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Found in plains biomes.<\/p>\n<p>### Book Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades enchanted books. Requires 1 book and emeralds, with dynamic pricing based on the number and level of enchantments.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Limitations**: Each item can only be purchased once.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Appears in snowy biomes, including:<br \/>\n    &#8211; Snowy Beach<br \/>\n    &#8211; Snowy Plains<br \/>\n    &#8211; Snowy Slopes<br \/>\n    &#8211; Snowy Taiga<br \/>\n    &#8211; Frozen Peaks<\/p>\n<p>### Decoration Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades decorative blocks, including colored wools, glass, bricks, terracottas, concrete, banners, paintings, and item frames.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Found in deserts.<\/p>\n<p>### Potion Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades uncraftable potions with random effects. Potions have a longer-lasting effect (1.5 times the normal duration).<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Appears near swamp huts.<\/p>\n<p>### Exclusive Trader<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Functionality**: Trades high-value exclusive items such as wither skulls, totems of undying, nametags, horse armor, and saddles.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Spawn Location**: Found in the Nether, specifically in the Crimson Forest biome.<\/p>\n<p>## Lost Loot Command<\/p>\n<p>The mod includes a **\/lostloot** command that allows players to manage their lost loot:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **View Lost Loot**: Players can use this command to view their lost loot.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Clear Lost Loot**: If you have operator (OP) permissions, you can clear lost loot for yourself or for other players.<\/p>\n<p>## Configuration Options<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; All trader spawns can be disabled in the configuration settings.<br \/>\n&#8211; Players can also configure the availability of End Bells, loot recovery, and trader despawn times (default is 48,000 ticks).<\/p>\n<p>## End Trader Bell<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; **Item Description**: The End Bell functions like a spawn egg. Right-clicking it will summon the End Trader and produce a bell sound.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Usage Restrictions**:<br \/>\n    &#8211; The bell can only be used if there is no End Trader currently assigned to the player.<br \/>\n    &#8211; After the End Trader leaves, players can summon him again with another bell.<br \/>\n    &#8211; If a player attempts to use a bell while a trader is nearby, they will receive a notification indicating the presence of a trader and, if close enough, the coordinates of the trader.<\/p>\n<p>## License<\/p>\n<p>This mod is licensed under the LGPL.
