Drop That!

This mod enables configuration of any mob loot table.

This solution is set up to easily (well, somewhat) configure any "character" drop table in the game. It can either add or replace existing drops.

See the Valheim wiki to get a list of item names which can be used.

A pretty comprehensive guide for prefabs can be found here

Features

• Override any existing potential drop of a mob, by specifying the index (0 based) of the item you want changed.
• Add as many additional drops with their own drop chance or drop range as you want
• Discard all existing drop tables
• Discard all existing drop tables for entities modified.
• Configuration templates, for easy extension.
• Add conditions for when a mob should drop an item
• Server-side configs
• Adds mod specific options for:
  • Creature Level and Loot Control
  • Epic Loot (Experimental as it is in beta. Tested against v0.7.10)
• Performance improvements
  • Drop stacks instead of individual items. Want to have a stack of coins, that isn't a massive lag tower of individual coins?
  • Limit max amount to avoid those pesky world-crashing level 10 trolls.

Manual Installation:

1. Install the BepInExPack Valheim
2. Download the latest zip
3. Extract it in the <GameDirectory>\Bepinex\plugins\folder.

Client / Server

Drop That needs to be installed on all clients and on server to work.

From v1.4.0 clients will request the configurations currently loaded by the server, and use those without affecting the clients config files. This means you should be able to have server-specific configurations, and the client can have its own setup for singleplayer.

Configuration

Attempting to work with the BepInEx configuration system, but is set up to manage "arrays" of drops. The configuration file 'drop_that.tables.cfg' is expected (and generated if not present) in the BepInEx config folder. It will be empty by default, and the user is expected to add in the changes desired.

If files are not present, start the game and they will be generated. Restart to apply changes.

Default drop tables and other helper info, can be generated by setting toggles in the main configuration file 'drop_that.cfg'. Pre-generated version can be found here:

• Drop tables
• Creature items

General

'drop_that.cfg'

General configurations. Contains predefined configurations, which includes rules for how the 'drop_that.tables.cfg' entries will be applied.

[General]

## Enable debug logging.
EnableDebug = false

## Loads drop table configurations from supplemental files.
## Eg. drop_that.supplemental.my_drops.cfg will be included on load.
LoadSupplementalDropTables = true

[DropTables]

## When enabled, all existing items in drop tables gets removed.
ClearAllExisting = false

## When enabled, all existing items in drop tables are removed when a configuration for that entity exist. 
## Eg. if "Deer" is present in configuration table, the configured drops will be the only drops for "Deer".
ClearAllExistingWhenModified = false

## When enabled, drop configurations will not override existing items if their indexes match.
AlwaysAppend = false

## When enabled, drop conditions are checked at time of death, instead of at time of spawn.
ApplyConditionsOnDeath = false

[Debug]

## Enables in-depth logging. Note, this might generate a LOT of log entries.
EnableTraceLogging = false

## When enabled, creates a file on world start, in the plugin folder containing the default mob drop tables.
WriteDefaultDropTableToFile = false

## When enabled, creates a file on world start, in the plugin folder containing items of mobs that have drop tables.
WriteCreatureItemsToFile = false

## When enables, creates a file on world start in the plugin folder, containing the name of each location in the game.
WriteLocationsToFile = false

[Performance]

## When enabled, will always attempt to create stacks of items when dropping, instead of creating items one by one.
## Eg. 35 coin stack, instead of 35 individual 1 coin drops.
AlwaysAutoStack = false

## When greater than 0, will limit the maximum number of items dropped at a time. This is intended for guarding against multipliers.
## Eg. if limit is 100, and attempting to drop 200 coins, only 100 will be dropped.
DropLimit = -1

Drop Tables

'drop_that.tables.cfg'

Main file for inserting drop configurations. Drop tables are configured by creating a section as follows:

[<EntityPrepfabName>.<DropIndex>]
ItemName = <ItemPrefabName>
AmountMin = <integer>
AmountMax = <integer>
Chance = <DropChance> //0 disables it, 0.5 is 50% chance, 1 is 100% chance.
OnePerPlayer = <bool>
LevelMultiplier = <bool>
Enabled = <bool> //Disables this entry from being applied.

The DropIndex is used to either override an existing item drop, or simply to add to the list. Multiple drops for a mob can be modified by copying the above multiple times, using the same entity name and a different index.

Conditions can be added to each index as follows:

Example

[Draugr.0]
ItemName = Entrails
AmountMin = 1
AmountMax = 1
Chance = 1
OnePerPlayer = false
LevelMultiplier = true
Enabled = true

[Draugr.1]
ItemName = IronScrap
AmountMin = 1
AmountMax = 1
Chance = 1
OnePerPlayer = false
LevelMultiplier = true
Enabled = true

[Deer.5]
ItemName = Coins
AmountMin = 1
AmountMax = 100
Chance = 0.5
OnePerPlayer = false
LevelMultiplier = false
Enabled = true
ConditionMinLevel=1
ConditionMaxLevel=2
ConditionNotDay=false
ConditionNotNight=false
ConditionNotAfternoon=false
ConditionEnvironments=Misty
ConditionGlobalKeys=defeated_bonemass
ConditionBiomes=Blackforest,Meadows

Supplemental

By default, Drop That will load additional configurations from configs with names prefixed with "drop_that.supplemental.".

This allows for adding your own custom templates to Drop That. Eg. "drop_that.supplemental.my_custom_configuration.cfg"

The supplemental configuration expects the same structure as "drop_that.tables.cfg".

Mod specific configuration

Mod-specific configs can be added to each configuration entry as [<EntityPrepfabName>.<DropIndex>.<ModName>] These are implemented soft-dependant, meaning if the mod is not present, the configuration will do nothing.

Spawn That

Integrates features based on Spawn That.

Example of Eikthyr dropping ore only when spawned by an existing spawn that template with an assigned template id.

[Eikthyr.10]
ItemName = CopperOre

[Eikthyr.10.SpawnThat]
ConditionTemplateId=SomeTemplateIdForEikthyr

Example files for setting up a loot goblin can be found in the github example here.

Epic Loot

Integrates to magic item roll system from Epic Loot. Allows for making items magic. See the mod page for more in-depth description of the magic system.

The items are first given a rarity level, based on the configured options. The roll is done as a weighted distribution, meaning if you gave Magic 100 and Legendary 100, it would be 50% chance to become one of them. If you added Rare as 100, it would be 33% for any of them.

Example of bonemass set to always drop a pair of epic pants.

[Bonemass.10]
ItemName = ArmorBronzeLegs

[Bonemass.10.EpicLoot]
RarityWeightEpic = 1

Creature Level and Loot Control

Additional conditions for Creature Level and Loot Control. See the mod nexus page for more in-depth documentation for the options.

Example for boar which will drop iron scraps only when it has an Infusion.

[Boar.0]
ItemName = IronScrap
Enabled = true
AmountMin = 1
AmountMax = 1
Chance = 1

[Boar.0.CreatureLevelAndLootControl]
ConditionNotInfusion = None
