Description
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

priorityfield (higher wins) - Remove trades: Point to an empty loot table
