Carry Weight Skill

Adds a Carry Weight skill to Valheim. Train it by sprinting or swimming while your inventory is at least half full (relative to max carry weight). Heavier loads level you faster. Each level adds +3 max carry weight (up to +300 at level 100). No XP while over-encumbered (past max weight).

The skill is registered with Jotunn and appears in the normal skills menu with the rest of your skills.

Requirements

Valheim (modded)
BepInEx
Jotunn (hard dependency — install via Thunderstore dependencies or manually)

Installation

Thunderstore Mod Manager / r2modman

Install BepInEx and Jotunn if you have not already (your manager may pull them in automatically).
Install Carry Weight Skill from Thunderstore.
Launch the game through the mod profile.

The manager will place CarrySkill.dll under BepInEx/plugins/.

Manual

Install BepInEx for Valheim.
Install Jotunn into BepInEx/plugins/.
Copy CarrySkill.dll from this package into Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/ (optionally inside a subfolder).

How it works


Training	Sprinting on land (not swimming) or swimming with movement, while current weight ÷ max carry weight ≥ 50%.
Speed	Between 50% and 100% load
Encumbered	If you are over max weight (`IsEncumbered`), you do not gain Carry Weight XP from this mod (run or swim).
Reward	+3 max carry weight per skill level (+300 at level 100).

Configuration

Generated at first run (path depends on BepInEx):

BepInEx/config/shadymods.carryskill.carry_weight.cfg

Section	Key	Default	Description
Logging	`LogCarryXp`	`false`	Log carry skill XP gains to `LogOutput.log`.
Logging	`XpLogIntervalSeconds`	`1`	Seconds between XP log lines when logging is on. Use `0` for very verbose (per-frame style) logging.

Multiplayer

All players who should use the skill need compatible BepInEx, Jotunn, and this mod. The skill uses a stable Jotunn identifier for saves — do not change it between releases if you want existing characters to keep progress.

Compatibility

Mods that change max carry weight, inventory slots, or weight may interact with how “full” you are or how much you can carry. If numbers look wrong, test with conflicting mods disabled.

Troubleshooting

No XP: Ensure you are at ≥50% of max weight, actually running (land) or swimming with movement, not over-encumbered, and not blocked by other effects that stop skill XP.
Max weight not increasing: Confirm the mod loads and check BepInEx LogOutput.log for errors on startup.
