Features

Better Piglin Trades transforms piglin bartering into a fully data-driven system that modpack makers can customize without writing any code.

Tiered Trading System

The mod includes three default trade tiers:

Trade Item Reward Quality
Gold Nugget Basic rewards - iron nuggets, soul sand, fire charges
Gold Ingot Standard rewards - ender pearls, potions, obsidian (vanilla-like)
Gold Block Premium rewards - netherite scrap, diamonds, enchanted books

Fully Customizable

Create your own trades by adding JSON files to your datapack:

Trade Definition (data/mypack/piglin_trades/emerald.json):

{
  "item": "minecraft:emerald",
  "loot_table": "mypack:gameplay/piglin_bartering/emerald",
  "priority": 0
}

Then create a matching loot table with your desired rewards!

JEI Integration

When JEI is installed, press "U" on any trade item to see all possible barter rewards. The display shows:

  • The input item required
  • All possible output items with average quantities

For Modpack Makers

  • Add new trades: Create trade definitions for any item
  • Override existing trades: Use the priority field (higher wins)
  • Remove trades: Point to an empty loot table
  • Balance rewards: Full control over loot table weights and quantities

Requirements

  • Minecraft 1.21.1
  • NeoForge 21.1+

Optional

  • JEI (Just Enough Items) - For viewing possible barter outputs
