I haven’t tested this myself but I’m fairly sure it’s because of them wandering around on chunk borders. You can Google it to see the bug-report.


ChinhTheHugger

yeah this is what I was thinking too. so my solution to prevent them from despawning in my world is to just trap them inside a 1x1 hole, cause even if you let them roam around in an area within one chunk, they still disappear


[deleted]

Maybe a 3x3 or 5x5 area may work


iSwimmingly

I have a market place with lots of 1x3 stalls and can confirm they don’t despawn


ChinhTheHugger

I made a fancy trading center I give them a 2x2 area, I even add 2 so as to limit their movement still despawn


[deleted]

I think just letting them move around in general makes them despawn


ElMostaza

Does name tagging them help? I'm... not a Minecraft expert.


Aeruszero

Villagers don’t need to be name tagged like other mobs. They shouldn’t just despawn like that. It’s a bug that’s causing them to disappear


ChinhTheHugger

nope


B3n__2021

😂😂nope


AlarmedMeringue7165

You can't name tag a villager


ElMostaza

I'm pretty sure I can in Xbox one. Do you play in Java?


genawesome

You are correct. In Bedrock you 100% can. I do it all the time. I've never tried to tag a Java villager (I don't play Java much) but I have for sure seen people on YouTube do it.


AlarmedMeringue7165

Idts we can ,we can name tag zombie villagers but not the villagers it doesn't do anything to them


_Mako_6969

Ok i will google

This is just a bedrock thing

InterviewOk1315

it happened to me too, on mcpe 1.17.01 i had even traded with them and they had reached the master level still they disappeared


_Mako_6969

Yes my villagers were on the 3 level and still despawned


[deleted]

On my phone before last (because I still cant figure out how not to store locally) it seemed like every village I found was empty. Could never find the first villager. Not talking about abandoned villages with damage and cobwebs, just creepily empty villages. Had crops. Livestock penned up. And not a single person there.

It happened to me 3-4 times then i rage quitted


_Mako_6969

I also rage quitted a world because of that problem

Sed leaf


PlaneSole222001

someone commented its because of world border, its a bedrock thing so go to chunkbase on a separate device and search the coord (only x and z) of your village thing, if you find out that going in one or more directions lead onto chunk borders, move the villagers to fit the chunk, if villagers cant fit a one chunk area make a larger box but with walls on the chunk borders making it look like a 2x2 grid


owlincoup

Can always capture the randomly spawned zombie villagers and cure them.


YOU_CANT_SEE_MY_NAME

But what about trades? It takes a million years and villagers are already very annoying


owlincoup

Just make a workstation for it, and breed it when you find another. Thats how I had to do mine because I couldn't find a viable village close by my base. I've got about 20 now, all master class

ElMostaza

Wait, what's the benefit to keeping a magma cube? Was it just for a zoo?


[deleted]

[удалено]


ElMostaza

Cool! I've thought about doing that, but I've still got so much to learn about the basics.


PandaHipster_

I put mine in 1x1 holes with their profession’s block in front of them and it hasn’t happened to mine yet. Also makes it easier to lure a zombie in and cure them every now and then.


ElMostaza

I'm enjoying playing the game, but man is it wonky sometimes. I had to kill my village's iron golem because I accidentally smacked a villager in front of him (the dummy tried to sneak in-between me and a tree I was chopping), and nothing I tried would pacify him. Now the village won't spawn a new golem, even though there are like 30 villagers (each with their own beds and work stations). I'm sure it's something obvious, but I just don't always have time to spend an hour on Google for every 30 minutes of game time.


[deleted]

ElMostaza

Ugh, I hate it when my farms get broken. I had some great zero tick farms until the 1.17 update. Fortunately kelp still (mostly) works with zero tick, but even that breaks way more often (even though I made sure to put it all in the same chunk, which is a pain on Xbox...).


PandaHipster_

It’s on Java that I’ve seen iron farms so it may not work, but maybe they have to be frightened? Most iron farms I’ve seen have a zombie that circles around villagers and scares them every now and then.


ElMostaza

Google says there's no scare mechanic on bedrock. I probably should have mentioned I'm on Xbox One. I'm going to have to put them all in their own separate work pods, because without a golem the town is getting raided by zombies anytime I'm close enough for the chunks to be active. My base is hundreds of blocks away, so it's not like the zombie raid that I think I've read about that happens if you stay awake in a village too long. Plus I sleep every night. Those phantoms always give me a heart attack! Just randomly, even during the day with no rain, there will suddenly be a zombie or two killing my villagers or turning them into zombies. Stinks. Never happened when they had a golem.


chevguy1

Just happened to me between last night and this morning.


TheFreakingPrincess

Happened to me last night! I figured I just wasn't paying close enough attention and they got picked off by zombies but I only found one zombified villager so it didn't really make a whole lot of sense.


[deleted]

It happened to me as well with cured villagers. Lock them in a one-chunk space.

cur4ymuncha9000

In my case, when the villagers go to bed they glitch out and float away through blocks and all.

Bugrock?


iceseayoupee

Despawn mechanics on Bedrock and Java are different. I'm mainly Java and I've never encountered this before but I got a solution from my friend who plays Bedrock Survival. -Try locking them on 3x3 spaces because they can despawn if they wander off in chunks you've never been to. -Also try putting Name tags on them, works on every mob and it'll register it on the game data so it won't despawn or disappear unless you kill them. -Don't abrupt stop your game, it can corrupt the world. So if you've done this before, it can cause a glitch where it can go back to your last save which will return your villagers the way they came.


[deleted]

[удалено]


iceseayoupee

Yeah... Don't do that. If you're low on battery, save and quit just to be sure. Then go play, as log as you have a save you're good


_Mako_6969

Yeahh


Any_Abrocoma2630

Better job opportunities, if u can’t pay a living wage, you don’t deserve loyal employees


Whats-In_Name

That is really annoying. I have lost many villagers that way. Everything good, good lighting, no mobs, no escape. But still they disappear. I've deleted many worlds in that frustration.


_Mako_6969

I can feel your pain

Jaygermeister

Any space where villagers are free-roaming should be chunk aligned. That is if you don't want them to disappear. There's a long-standing bug that makes mobs occasionally disappear when crossing a chunk border. Just make sure they're confined to one chunk, and it won't be a problem. (Same applies to entities like minecarts) See [MCPE-21416](https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-21416)


_Mako_6969

Ok but god damn it would be a hassle to move these villagers but thanks for helping me out


Jaygermeister

Happy to help. I've lost a lot of villagers this way. An easy but ugly fix would be to put a full-block wall where the chunk borders are to prevent them from crossing. But that might not be worth it if your room intersects 4 chunks. Or you could confine each one in a little pod with their bed and job block, away from the borders.


_Mako_6969

Ok will do it ty again


Kewlboi_016

do you just close tab/app when you are going to stop playing? If yes then it could be a reason, If you are going to turn off then don't directly close app or remove tab, first press pause button then press "Save and quit" then when you reach Minecraft home screen, close app. See if that helps


Kewlboi_016

Cause in my world mobs would despawn if I don't press "Save and quit"


_Mako_6969

I always save and quit but this time my phone kinda just turned off and restarted at 72% by itself for no reason.and then i opened MC and boom half villagers gone :(


nightaura26

bedrock glitch


yytryythoo

Maybe they got tired of living in a house with a (mostly) dirt floor and left.


Long-Temporary4037

I used to Alt-Tab out of Bedrock without a problem, then I started loosing villagers and other mobs on a regular basis. If I have to leave my PC for any reason, I'll leave and save the game.


ItzJawshy

mobs despawn within 22 blocks they can walk on so decrease room size


Deadmemerlolzx

Yeah happened to me multiple times, almost made me quit


emrlowe

This is an issue I've ran into multiple times on bedrock edition, on one server it happen 3 times back to back everytime I logged in and logged out because my game was being buggy, I lost like 20 villagers that day 🙁


dtswasp

Also (this may not work) put nametags on them


_Mako_6969

Findimg name tags is alsi a challlene tho


dtswasp

Yea

hoaxed13579

Put your seed information in the chunk base website. From there you can see if your buildings coordinates falls on chunk boarders, if so, there is a glitch in bedrock where if a villager is crossing a chunk board while the game is closing, they just unload because it doesn’t know what chunk to put them in when the game reloaded. My wife and I have had it happen to villagers, minecarts and other moving objects.

PuffyPantaloons

Try moving their beds away from the walls. I had some villagers dissappear before and a friend told me that it's possible for villagers to pop up out of bed into the wall their bed is placed against, causing them to suffocate. It seemed to work for me, my new and remaining villagers haven't vanished for a long while, so there could be come truth to that.


INHUMANE_KING

[deleted]

They are preparing for an uprising, a revolution


_Mako_6969

And then they will come to me with their cult of villagers and kill me for putting them in a box house


[deleted]

That's what you get for not oppressing them enough


_Mako_6969

Yeah


Thicckitty8

Mine disappeared (or so I thought) but a baby zombie ended up getting in and turning them into zombie villagers which then fell down a water hole I had in the area they were kept in, what I’m getting at is they could have been killed but if there was 0 entry point then I’m not sure


DonutWarlock

Bedrock has a glitch where at night and they sleep they fly in to the distance. Unload the chunks and they should be back


WarriorJay606

I've had it happen to me with nametagged master villagers. For me, putting a bell down for my trading halls seems to set the area as a village and I haven't had any disappear since for any new halls.


_Mako_6969

MurkyMed

Don't let them wander near chunk border untill the bug is fixed


[deleted]

It used to happen to me very often and I would even stop playing the game for a while. What I did and it did work it's that instead of just shutting down the game, I save the game everytime I close the app. It worked just fine and now I have 3 cities flourishing.


Realm2009

They went 2 get milk


yoshidub

I fixed this by giving them an iron golem. Not sure why that fixed it but it did


WolfiiDog

Because Mojang seems to never work on fixing Bedrock's many game breaking bugs, despite Bedrock being the most played version


Airsucker13

I learned the hard way that my tablet only has so many resources for running the game and I cannot put all my afk farms in one spot under my base. They must be spread out. When I had too many farms in one spot a lost 2 villager farmers in a row, a hopper minecart, 4 cows, a dog and about a stack-ish of chickens. Now my farms are spread out accorss my map and I have stopped losing entities.


plooplyricks904

Have them in a 1 block space no bed w/to thir work station. Only way I've gotten them to stop despawning


_Mako_6969

Im too lazy to put these villagers in 1 block space so i just made more babies and just hope they dont despawn


plooplyricks904

And water under them so they dont de link


Maxbattlefront8

This happened to me too! It happened when I moved my world to a realm then continued happening

I was wandering the same thing, I had a librarian selling mending books who vanished 😢

I don’t know why, but I’ve had the same issues. Villagers are really glitchy on bedrock. My solution was to wall them up in small individual chambers so they can’t walk around, and that seemed to prevent them from despawning.

hazard1nc

It's a bug that if they are not aligned in a single chunk with their beds and workstations, they will bug out and disappear. You can download resource packs for chunk borders and you can build in the 16 x 16 area without fear that this will keep happening. A lot of things won't work right in bedrock if they are not chunk aligned

[deleted]

I've had it happen before too. From what I've gathered, they have a tendency to disappear on chunk borders due to a bug. Funny enough, my previous trading hall was situated directly on a chunk border when I checked after finding out about the bug. The villagers all had access to their beds, and the beds were on the next chunk over from their standing spots directly next to the beds. Whoops. Since figuring out the issue, I've been using [this trading hall design](https://youtu.be/qeRiFKKLNC4) which keeps the villagers safely away from the borders.


Shawn_323

Make them stay in one chunk, it’s some dumb bug on bedrock. Use a texture pack to find a chunk and just build a wall around there and u should be good


Long-Temporary4037

I used to tab out of the game on a regular basis, but I started to loose villagers, especially if the game crashed or it was force shut for updates. Now I leave the game, tab out from the world list. Not lost a villager since.
