📋 About This Mod
Allows you to pick up villagers and place them somewhere else

# Villager Pickup
Villager Pickup allows you to pick up villagers into spawn eggs by shift right-clicking on them. The villager spawn egg will retain all NBT data of the previous villager, meaning they stay exactly the same as before you picked them up.
## Features
- Easy Villager Management: Effortlessly manage your villagers by picking them up and placing them wherever you need them.
- NBT Data Retention: Villagers retain all their data, ensuring they remain unchanged after being picked up.
- Fully Server-Sided: The mod is fully server-side, and vanilla clients can use it when installed on the server.
## Compatibility
Due to the way this mod is coded, it works with all modded villagers by default if they are not a separate entity (for example, you can't pick up wandering traders).
## Installation
1. Download the mod from (https://modrinth.com/mod/villager-pickup) or (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/villagerpickup). 2. Place the downloaded mod file into the `mods` folder of your Minecraft server. 3. Restart the server to apply the changes.
## Configuration
Is there something you want to change about the mod? Check out the config file that is generated after the server has started. You will find it under `config/villager-pickup.json`.
After making changes, you don't have to restart! Just use the `/villager-pickup reload` Command.
Simply shift right-click on a Villager. The villager will be converted into a spawn egg. You can place them down again afterward.
