Take control of villager profession and sleep assignment. Bind any villager to any workstation or bed permanently.<\/p>\n
| **FEATURES** |
\n|-|<\/p>\n
* Permanent villager-workstation binding: Right-click an unemployed villager while holding a workstation item to bind them together. Place the block and it belongs to them exclusively.
\n* Permanent villager-bed binding: Right-click any villager while holding a bed to bind them to it. Place the bed and it belongs to them exclusively. Works on employed and unemployed villagers alike.
\n* Protected workstations: Other villagers cannot gain a profession from a bound workstation or show any claiming behavior.
\n* Protected beds: Other villagers cannot claim a bound bed or walk toward it.
\n* Villager locator: Press V while looking at a bound workstation or bed to apply a glowing effect to its villager, making them easy to find in a crowded trading hall.
\n* Auto-cleanup on break: Breaking a bound workstation or a bound bed automatically releases the binding, freeing both the block and the villager.<\/p>\n

Binding a villager to a workstation:<\/u><\/p>\n
– Hold a stack of workstation items in your main hand (e.g. a composter, lectern, blast furnace, etc.).
\n– Right-click an unemployed villager. A brief ritual begins, shown by happy particles around them.
\n– One item from your stack is now bound to that villager (the rest remain unbound).
\n– Place the bound item as a block anywhere in the world.
\n– The villager will navigate to their workstation and gain the corresponding profession.<\/p>\n
Binding a villager to a bed:<\/u><\/p>\n
– Hold any bed in your main hand.
\n– Right-click any villager (employed or unemployed). A brief ritual begins, shown by happy particles around them.
\n– One bed from your stack is now bound to that villager.
\n– Place the bound bed anywhere in the world.
\n– The villager will navigate to and sleep in that bed.<\/p>\n
Finding a bound block’s villager:<\/u><\/p>\n
– Look directly at a placed workstation or bed block.
\n– Press V (default key). The bound villager will glow for a configurable duration, making them visible through walls.<\/p>\n
Releasing a binding:<\/u><\/p>\n
– Simply break the workstation block or either half of the bed. The binding is removed automatically and the villager is freed.<\/p>\n
