The area around a villager breeder must be carefully scoured to ensure the breeder works correctly. The village must be small, so the player must ensure that no other villages exist within an 80-block spherical radius.
How close does a villager have to be to get a job?
A villager can detect job sites as far as 48 blocks.
Will villagers run away?
Villagers will run away from zombies, illagers and vexes within 8 blocks. If a villager finds itself outside the village boundary, or a villager without a village detects a village boundary within 32 blocks, it will move quickly back within the boundary.
How many blocks away does the villager have to be?
The villager must be at least 64 blocks away from your village (radius + distance to forget the village) to have it forget the village. I wouldn’t give the potato farmer its own doors, which was suggested by Denislav Karagiozov.
Why does the villager keep trying to go back?
UPDATE: We can assume that the “village boundary” is not the doors them selves but an area around them, which makes the distance less than 32 blocks and therefore the villager is right to keep trying to go back. Solved by giving the potato farm its own doors to simulate a closer village.
How far does a farm need to be from the village?
The farm needs to be either entirely inside or entirely outside the boundaries of your village. The radius is the greater distance of either 32 blocks or the distance to the furthest door in the village.
How do you get villagers to become willing in Minecraft?
Villagers can also become willing by having 12 “food” in their inventory. Bread counts as 4 food, while carrots, potatoes, and beetroots count as only 1. Farmer villagers occasionally throw harvested crops at villagers, allowing them to pick them up to obtain enough food to become willing.
