#2. Trade Settings Configuration
Firstly you can change your trade name. In the example above, it's changeable in
'tradeName' part. Change this tradeName to anything else, e.g. villagerTrade6. Under trade settings, you can configure:
chance- change the chance of this trade appearing in villager tradesrequiredVillagerLevel- level required for trades to appear, read more at https://trades.advancedplugins.net/trades/levelsrequiredProfession- required profession, read more at https://trades.advancedplugins.net/trades/professionsrequiredBiome- required biome for villager to spawn in, for this trade to appear. Read more at https://trades.advancedplugins.net/trades/biomesmaxTradeUses- max uses for this trade on a villager, read more at https://trades.advancedplugins.net/trades/limits
#3. Trade Ingredients Configuration
Under trade ingredients, you can configure items required for a trade. In vanilla minecraft, it's usually emeralds + another item which turns into traded item. E.g. emeralds and a book, which then can be traded for an enchanted book. You do not need to follow this format.
You are not required to have 2 items either. Maximum is 2, minimum is 1.
Follow this guide on how to configure required items: https://trades.advancedplugins.net/configuration/items
#4. Trade Result Configuration
Trade can result either in item being awarded upon a trade or a command. Alongside this, you can also give the villager experience, which may level the villager up.
experience - apply this experience to level up the villager, read more at: https://trades.advancedplugins.net/trades/levelsConfiguration for awarding items:
Edit the
item part in tradeResult block. You need to follow this guide on how to edit this item: https://trades.advancedplugins.net/configuration/itemsConfiguration for commands:
With AdvancedTrades, you can trade custom commands instead of items. Though, the rewarded item will still be displayed just as a display only, won't be traded. You can use this item to explain the reward to user as they won't be able to see what command they are trading for.
The actual commands can be configured following this guide: https://trades.advancedplugins.net/configuration/commands
