Per Player Wandering Traders Mod Guide

How Per Player Wandering Traders Works

In vanilla Minecraft, the wandering trader spawns as a world-level event, so on a multiplayer server only one trader appears at a time regardless of how many players are online. This mod changes that logic so the spawn is tracked per player instead of globally.

Each player now gets their own wandering trader independently. The mod stores each player's trader spawn data in their NBT under the per_player_wandering_traders tag, which keeps behavior consistent across sessions and server restarts.

The mod only touches spawning logic. Trades, trader behavior, and despawning work exactly as they do in vanilla. Performance impact is minimal, making it suitable for servers where players spread out across the world.
