Cobblemon Villager overhaul - [ADDON]

CobbleDollars Villagers Overhaul — what’s new

This update focuses on smoother trading, better multiplayer behaviour, RCT trainer support, and quality-of-life around the custom shop UI.

---

Shop UI — smoother and more stable

• Less flicker and “screen reset” when buying or selling (including single-player and multiplayer). The shop is built to stay open while you trade; balance updates without tearing the whole UI down every click.
• Buy tab always shows in the category list, even when there are no buy offers yet, so the layout stays consistent.
• Trades tab polish
  • Tweaked the arrow between items so barters read more clearly.
  • “Trade” on the action button uses a slightly smaller label so longer translations don’t spill past the button (Buy / Sell stay full size).
• When the shop does get a full data refresh (for example after cycling trades), the client tries to keep your scroll position when you’re still on the same tab, so it feels less jumpy.

---

Villager trading — how it feels in-game

• Trade XP is still granted, but experience orbs are not spawned for these trades (XP is applied directly), so trading stays tidy.
• Trade XP scales with stack size when you buy/sell multiple at once (where applicable).
• Quantity in the shop is no longer forced back to 1 after every action — it stays where you set it until you change it.

---

Multiplayer & dedicated servers

• Important shop options (custom shop UI, villagers use CobbleDollars, datapack trades, RCT overhaul) are synced from the server when you join, so the client matches the world you’re playing on — no more “it works in single-player but not on my server” from mismatched local config alone.

---

RCT (Radical Cobblemon Trainers) — trainer association UI

• Improved handling when trading with RCT trainer association NPCs using the CobbleDollars-style shop, including series / card flows and tooltips where supported.
• Behaviour is aligned so RCT-only paths don’t fight the normal villager shop logic.

---

Fabric notes

• Extra client-side handling so the custom shop and vanilla merchant screen don’t fight each other right after opening (overlap / recovery), especially on multiplayer.
• C key (when the shop is open) still works with cycle trades when supported and when Trade Cycling–compatible behaviour is available.

---

For modpack authors & server owners

• Project build targets Java 21 via Gradle toolchain (same game requirement you’re already on for current Minecraft versions).

---

Small print

• After many trades without closing the shop, offer uses / “out of stock” on the list might lag visually until you close and reopen the shop or get another full refresh — this is the trade-off for keeping the UI stable instead of reloading the whole panel every trade.

Thanks for playing — if something feels off on Fabric vs NeoForge or on a specific server setup, report it with your loader, MC version, and whether you’re on single-player or multiplayer.
