📖About WanderingTraderAlert

WanderingTraderAlert

A lightweight Paper plugin that broadcasts Wandering Trader spawns, shows live coordinates, adds a direct Teleport button, includes a configurable despawn ETA, and rates each trader's offers with a custom star rating.


Features

  • Global spawn broadcast when a Wandering Trader appears.
  • Despawn message as broadcast
  • Nearest player info (with distance in blocks).
  • [Show Coordinates] → prints current position (auto-updates while the trader moves).
  • [Teleport] button (runs immediately if you have permission).
  • Despawn ETA: shows (~MM:SS left) based on loaded time (configurable).
  • Custom rating (★) of offers via configurable item weights.
  • Config file (config.yml) for messages, timing, rating weights, etc.
  • Reload command: /traderalert reload

Commands

  • /tradercoords <uuid> — show live coordinates (+ ETA & rating).
  • /traderteleport <uuid> — teleport to the trader (instant).
  • /traderalert reload — reload the config.

Permissions

  • traderalert.use — use Show Coordinates (default: true)
  • traderalert.teleport — use Teleport button / command (default: op)
  • traderalert.admin — /traderalert reload (default: op)

FAQ

Q: Does the Wandering Trader have levels?
A: No — unlike villagers, Wandering Traders don't level up. The plugin provides a custom star rating based on the trades it spawns with.

Q: What if a trader unloads?
A: Despawn ETA counts loaded time only. When the entity unloads, the timer pauses.

Q: Can I change messages/timings?
A: Yes, everything lives in config.yml. Use /traderalert reload to apply changes.
