About this project
What does Named Traders add?

Naming wandering traders or their llamas prevents them from despawning.
It's as simple as that! In vanilla Minecraft, wandering traders and their llamas will despawn. Taming the llamas can keep them around, but name tags don't actually do anything, until now! Simply name that trader and their llamas to give yourself a permanent friend!
