MCA Family Life

MCA Family Life is, well, you guessed it, a MCA addon mod that makes your family feel like family. Your kids call you mom or dad and bring you little treasures. Your spouse cooks for you, raids the pantry, stocks the chests after work, and expects you to remember your anniversary. Everyone in the village has a birthday, and they notice whether you remember it.

• A year is 100 days. The date ("Day 18, Year 2") appears every morning, or check it with /familylife date.

• Every villager has a birthday. Children born in your world have theirs on the day they were born.

• You have a birthday too. It's day 100 by default; change it with /familylife birthday set <day>.

• Ask anyone "When's your birthday?" from the Talk menu.

• Hover over a married villager's ring icon to see when they got married: "Married to Alex on Day 75, Year 1".

• New Talk options: Happy Birthday! and Happy Anniversary!

• They work like MCA's other interactions, with hearts, mood and a reply.

• Get it right for a big heart boost. Get it wrong or repeat yourself and it costs you.

• Forget someone's birthday after seeing them that day and they're sad the next day. Forget your anniversary and your spouse is depressed the next day, and it costs hearts.

• On your birthday, your spouse greets you with a cake and a "Happy Birthday!"

• They greet you every day with "Hi mom!", "Daddy! I missed you!" or "Oh, hey dad." There are lines for toddlers, kids, teens and grown-up children.

• Seeing you makes them happy, and the more they love you the happier they get.

• They run up to give you flowers and cool rocks they found.

• Stay-at-home spouses cook meals for you, and have food waiting when you come home after a long trip.

• Working spouses bring home bouquets, cookies and other sweets.

• Spouses snack from your chests and barrels: lids open, munching sounds, your bread goes missing.

• After a day at work they put things in the chests: crops from farmers, paper from librarians, arrows from fletchers, or a few emeralds.

• Your partner surprises you with sweets from time to time.

• Guards and other workers no longer greet their own wife or best friend like a stranger. Your spouse, partner, family and close friends speak to you as themselves, not in their job role.

• Healing gifts: give a golden apple or other healing food to an injured villager for bonus points, and they eat it right away. Healing potions work too.

• Protect them: kill a monster that's threatening a villager, while they watch, and they'll trust you more (up to 25 hearts per villager per day).

• Go for a walk: friendly and outgoing villagers love walks. Take them along for 100+ blocks and they'll thank you.

• Almost every number can be changed in the server config: the year length, heart rewards and penalties, how often gifts come, walk distance, the defence cap, and more.

• Wish rewards can be changed with a datapack.
