Updated 21 June 2025. Works with 1.21.6; should work with all 1.21.x, but not guaranteed.

If specific versions are needed, please join the Discord and ask in the data-pack-suggestions forum.

Purpose

Villager nitwits currently have little purpose in-game. This data pack remedies that by making them a sustainable source of iron.

Directions for Use

1. Install data pack.
2. Get a nitwit to stand over a hopper.

Notes

Nitwits must be between 0 and 0.5 blocks above a hopper to drop iron. All nitwits over hoppers will drop iron at the same time.

Known Issues

• None known.
