austin mahan: I'm not sure where you're getting your understanding of the mechanics from, but what you describe is pretty much guaranteed to make them release their workstations. If a villager is unable to reach a block beside its workstation 3 times in a row, it will release it and try to find another one.
The standard way to make a stable village is to add one villager at a time, giving it a bed and a workstation that it can reach (make sure both bed and workstation show green particles).
To repopulate your current village/farm, you'll first need to break all the beds and move the villagers farther than 64 blocks (96 is better) from where the nearest bed or workstation is going to be placed. Then you can bring in one villager at a time.
Same problem for me. I even put all villagers in a 1 by 1 cell with no work stations and locked professions with work stations out of reach and out of sight and still every morning they switched work stations
Thats what i was doing before. Hence why i started doing the 1 by 1 because, like you said, they have to be ale to reach their work stations. Which they obviously cannot yet they were still somehow doing. Ill try again later but as i said at 1 point i was 300 blocks away from the original village (i was doing 100 block increments) and was still getting villagers form the original village claiming the work stations from the new village.
Oops sorry. This thread popped up when i googled. Hadn't realized i was miss-using this forum. My apologies.
This has not been fixed for bedrock.
