Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. 🤔
I'd like to make it so you need to level up the npc to unlock new items like you can do with villagers, I tried the wiki but there was nothing that mentioned it, and in-game I tried playing with some of the values in advanced trading but none of them changed anything related to my issue

Describe the solution you'd like 💭
I'd like there to be a similar system to how villagers work, giving you basic items at their lowest level, needing you to buy things from them to level them up and unlock better equipment

Describe alternatives you've considered 🔄
I've tried making the items needed for the better equipment harder to find but I'd prefer just using emeralds

Thank you for the feedback; I like the idea.

Currently, this feature is not implemented. Technically, NPCs cannot gain experience to ensure they don't collect XP meant for players.

However, the progression system for Villagers is more of a custom implementation. Here's how it works: trades are defined for each profession and level of the villager. Depending on the profession and level, you get specific trades.

Implementing this would require the following steps:

• Adding configurable levels and experience to the NPCs.
• Creating custom trading data with level requirements.
• Building the corresponding trading screens.

Technically, this is feasible and doable, but it will take some time to implement all the necessary steps.
