Caravans & Convoys Automatic Trade Mod (1.21.1, 1.20.1)

Caravans & Convoys Automatic Trade Mod turns chests across your world into active overland trade routes. Players set what goods to send and receive at a Caravan Dock, and horse-drawn wagons haul the items automatically. Nothing teleports across the world, which means trades travel physical paths and face real risks along the road. The system works with standard containers without breaking existing storage setups.

Features:

• Adds the Caravan Dock block that connects to adjacent storage containers like chests and barrels.
• Lets players set export items and import requirements through a simple terminal interface.
• Features horse-drawn wagons driven by coach drivers to carry cargo physically across land routes.
• Calculates paths that follow player-made roads and avoid steep hills or hazardous drops.
• Provides escrow protection so players only lose goods if their own caravan gets raided.
• Caravans meet at route midpoints to swap cargo side by side before returning home.
• Carries small chunk tickets while moving so wagons travel smoothly without requiring nearby players.
• Supports guard escorts to protect wagons from hostile threats along travel paths.
• Keeps a default surplus floor in storage chests so active supplies never drop to zero.
• Includes failsafes that free wagons if they ever get stuck on rough terrain.

Configuration:

• roadSurfaceMult: sets how strongly wagons prefer paved surfaces over wild terrain.
• elevationPenalty: adjusts how much the pathfinding avoids steep hills.
• meetSwapSeconds: controls how long paired wagons pause together to exchange cargo.
• rendezvousEnabled: toggles the live midpoint cargo swap for paired trade routes.

How to Use:

1. Place a Caravan Dock directly next to a storage chest containing your export goods.
2. Right-click the dock terminal to set the items you want to send and the items you want back.
3. Set up a matching dock at your destination with mirrored trade offers.
4. Add your partner to the whitelist or enable self-trading if you own both docks.
5. Supply a wagon and press Start Operation to send your caravan onto the road.
