**You are trying to avoid automatic farms (which is a bad idea) but you are instead killing the game itself.

Looking at pnj harvesting, planting/sowing seeds, throwing potatoes etc was fun.

My PNJ now are just sitting in front of their tool. Nothing pleasant to look at.

Our ~40 saved worlds with PNJ are now dead (pnj (peasants) are not doing their job).

Our new world .... same, this is very hard to make a pnj work. So hard that waiting for hours is unpleasant and kills the game.

You are killing the interest of playing with PNJ, which is also a big part of the gameplay when not using servers. Too bad. I quit

In the latest version 1.16.40 my pnj are alsmost not harvesting carrot or potatoes in my old worlds.

This time, your attempt to kill the game is a success for me, I will no longer play minecraft, Thank you for that !

You have forgotten that creating factories was a GREAT thing to do under minecraft. As this is no longer possible, you have destroyed this way of playing the game.

• I tried to create a new world : same
• In creative mode : same !!!
• New pnj just spawned with an egg: same
• Pnj with inventory full of seed : same

This lazy pnj update is bad.

The 1.16.40 has made my One thousand hours world : OUT OF SERVICE, THIS WORLD IS NOT WORKING ANY MORE. TONS OF HOURS FOR NOTHING ! THANK YOU

-----------------

In this word, i had

• A automatic farm with pnj : Was VERY fun to create
• This farm (potatoes) was feeding a bone powder factory
• The bone factory was feeding a flower factor and a sugar cane factory
• etc etc...

I made tons of hours building of that, you made all that work going to the trash (and this is not the first time).

 Factories are not game killers, at the opposite, factories make use of creativity, REDSTONE, hours of playing.

Instead you should fix real games killers bugs such as duplicate glitches (very bad), or maybe worst, problems with local networks (this is really a pain in the a.. to try to play in local network).

Regards, this is probably the first and last bug report from us (me an my son) both of us were fan of automatic factories. As this is no longer possible we are quitting.
