Advanced Worker Companions

Turn ordinary villagers into useful Iron Golem Worker Companions and give them jobs that help you survive and manage your world.

Hire a nearby villager, assign a role, and let your worker help you while you explore, mine, gather resources, or defend yourself.

🤖 Worker Companion System

Hire an unassigned villager and transform them into your personal Iron Golem Worker.

Hire Cost: 250 coins

The addon uses the existing Advanced Eco-Economy coin system.

🛡️ Guard

Assign your worker as a Guard.

The Guard:

• Protects you from nearby hostile mobs

• Attacks hostile creatures around its owner

• Automatically follows/returns to its owner when too far away

• Gains XP from completed work

⛏️ Miner

Give your worker the Miner job.

The Miner can:

• Search nearby areas for ores

• Mine supported ore blocks

• Collect the resulting resources

• Store resources inside its worker storage

• Gain XP from successful work

Supported resources include ores such as:

• Coal

• Iron

• Copper

• Gold

• Redstone

• Lapis Lazuli

• Diamond

• Emerald

• Nether Quartz

• Nether Gold

🌿 Gatherer

Assign the Gatherer job to collect nearby dropped items.

The worker automatically:

• Detects nearby dropped items

• Collects supported item stacks

• Stores them inside its personal storage

• Prevents the items from being lost while the worker is working

📦 Worker Storage

Every worker has its own storage bag.

Maximum capacity: 576 items

Open the Worker Companion menu to:

• View stored resources

• Withdraw items

• Check storage capacity

• Manage your worker

If the worker is dismissed, stored resources are returned to the owner.

⭐ XP & Levels

Workers gain XP from successfully completing their assigned tasks.

Workers can progress through multiple levels:

• Level 1

• Level 2

• Level 3

• Level 4

• Level 5

The worker's level is displayed in its name tag.

Higher levels can make the worker more effective during its assigned tasks.

🪄 Worker Whistle

The addon includes a custom Companion Whistle.

Use the whistle to open the Worker Companion management menu.

The whistle allows you to:

• Hire a worker

• Recall your worker

• Assign jobs

• Open worker storage

• Talk to your worker

• Dismiss your worker

The addon automatically restores the whistle to the player's inventory when needed.

🧑‍🌾 Hire Nearby Villagers

To hire a villager:

1. Use the Worker Companion menu.

2. Stand near an unassigned villager.

3. Select the villager.

4. Pay the required coin cost.

5. The villager becomes your Iron Golem Worker.

The hiring system has a limited interaction range to prevent accidentally selecting distant villagers.

💰 Economy Integration

This addon integrates with the Advanced Eco-Economy system.

The worker hiring cost is paid using the existing economy balance rather than creating a separate currency.

If the worker cannot be created successfully, the hiring cost is safely refunded.

🔄 Recall System

Workers automatically remain connected to their owner.

If a worker becomes too far away or enters another dimension, the system can safely return it to its owner.

You can also manually use the Recall option from the Worker Companion menu.

🗣️ Worker Interaction

Talk to your worker through the management UI.

Workers provide different messages depending on their current job.

For example:

Guard:
“I am guarding you.”

Miner:
“I will look for nearby ore.”

Gatherer:
“I will collect nearby dropped items.”

🧹 Dismiss Worker

You can release your worker whenever you want.

When dismissed:

• Stored items are returned to the owner.

• The Iron Golem Worker is removed.

• A villager is restored at the worker's location.

🎮 Multiplayer Friendly

The addon identifies workers by their owner and keeps workers associated with the correct player.

Each player can have their own Worker Companion.

A player cannot hire another worker while already owning one.

⚙️ Performance

Workers do not perform their jobs every game tick.

Their work cycle is controlled by an interval system to reduce unnecessary server workload.

This helps keep the addon suitable for multiplayer worlds and servers.
