Settlement Plaques

Settlement Plaques is a survival-focused progression mod that lets players establish a permanent settlement, expand it with specialized job plaques, and earn useful rewards as that settlement grows. The Settlement Plaque serves as the heart of the town and defines a 150-block settlement radius, while seven unique job plaques, which include Farmer, Miner, Blacksmith, Carpenter, Mechanic, Merchant, and Scientist, can be placed in any order as long as each has its own nearby bed and remains within the settlement area.

Every new job plaque raises the settlement level, unlocking one-time rewards without bypassing normal survival progression, and the mod permanently tracks settlement placement, job assignments, beds, levels, and rewards even after blocks are broken or the world is reloaded. Completing all seven jobs reaches the maximum settlement level, unlocks the final achievement, and rewards the player with a unique Special Cow Spawn Egg; the Special Cow cannot breed, uses its own custom appearance, and converts a Hay Block into 32 Cooked Beef when fed. 

The mod is designed to feel like a natural extension of Minecraft survival with a base-building twist, adding structure, long-term goals, and settlement-building progression specifically for RPG/MMO adventure type world maps and can be easily recoded and utilized with other mods for NPC’s, custom quests revolving around the plaques and or their creation/placement, and configureable milestone rewards if the user(s) wishes for different rewards.
