Updating from a legacy version - Clickism/ClickVillagers GitHub Wiki

In ClickVillagers version 1.1 for Spigot/Paper, the plugin has been completely rewritten from scratch. This comes with various performance improvements, especially regarding saving picked up villagers. The way villager hoppers are handled is also different from the legacy versions.

---

This makes the legacy version not directly compatible with the newer version. The new version will however try to convert as much as possible from the legacy version.

This includes:

• Picked up villagers
• Villager hoppers

Doesn't include:

• Trading partner data

Keep in mind, that the villager hopper conversion can fail (albeit unlikely) and you may lose your villager hopper previous data.

Legacy picked up villagers are not directly converted, meaning they will still stay under the world and can cause lag issues. They are however supported by the pick-up system, so placing a picked up legacy villager will automatically convert it to the newer version.

If you previously were struggling with lag, it is possible to kill all the villagers under the bedrock at around coordinates x=0, z=0. However, this might not be necessary depending on your previous lag situation. If you DO kill the villagers, they will be lost and placing their items back will not bring them back, so proceed with caution.
