Auto Lectern Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start using Auto Lectern?
Place a lectern next to a librarian villager, then use the mod's command to begin the auto-refresh process. The mod will handle breaking and replacing the lectern automatically to cycle through the villager's trades.
Can I search for multiple enchantments at once?
Yes, you can set up multiple Auto Lectern instances on different librarians, each searching for different enchantments. Each librarian works independently with their own goal settings.
What happens if my tool breaks while the mod is running?
Enable the durability protection setting to make the mod stop automatically when your tool's durability gets low, preventing it from breaking. You can then repair your tool and resume the search.
How do I make the mod automatically buy the enchanted book once it finds the right trade?
Enable the auto-trade feature in the mod settings, and it will automatically complete the transaction with the villager once a matching trade appears.
Why is the mod waiting before placing a new lectern?
The mod waits for the broken lectern item to be picked up before placing a new one to ensure the lectern drops properly and doesn't cause placement issues.
Can I set a price limit for the enchanted books I'm looking for?
Yes, you can specify a price range as part of your goal settings, so the mod will only accept trades within your desired emerald cost.
Does the mod work with enchantments that have multiple levels?
Yes, you can set a specific enchantment level as part of your goal, so the mod will only stop when it finds that exact level or higher, depending on your settings.
Why does the mod start breaking the lectern before the new trades appear?
The mod breaks the lectern early while waiting for new trades to refresh, which speeds up the overall cycle time and makes the search faster.
Can I use this mod on a multiplayer server?
Compatibility depends on your server's mod setup and rules; check with your server administrator whether client-side automation mods are allowed.
What should I do if the mod keeps cycling past the trade I want?
Double-check your goal settings—verify the enchantment name, level, and price range are correct. If settings are right, the trade may not exist in that villager's pool, so try a different librarian.
