Spawn That!

This is an advanced tool for configuring all world spawners.

With this, it is possible to change almost all of the default settings for the way spawners work in Valheim. Want to have a world without trolls? Possible! (probably) Want to have a world with ONLY trolls? Possible! (almost) Want to have a world where greydwarves only spawn at night? Possible! Just want to have more/less of a mob type? Simple modifiers exist!

Features

  • Change spawning rates of specific mobs
  • Replace existing spawn configurations throughout the world
  • Set almost any of the default parameters the game uses
  • Add your own spawn configuration to the world
  • Modify the localized spawners by mob type and location
  • Dump existing game templates as files using the same format as the mod configs.
    • Easy to copy-paste and change the parts you want.
    • Investigate what the world throws at you.
  • Server-side configs
  • Modify the spawners in camps, villages and dungeons
  • Conditions and settings specific to integrated mods:

  • v1.1.0:
    • Added support for new SpawnArea spawner type (eg., greydwarf nests).
    • Added custom config file reader. This should hopefully make things more intuitive and less volatile. It does however mean that comments are longer added automatically.

    • Added datamining for locations, as an option in general config.
    • Removed setting "StopTouchingMyConfigs" from general config, as it has become irrellevant.

    • Fixed potential error when adding a new world spawner without specifying a prefab name.
    • A LOT of boring internal changes, logging and documentation that noone will probably ever see or care about.

    • Fixed world spawner cfg load adding unnecessary option.
    • Fixed faction, biome and cllc setting parsing being case-sensitive. Eg., setting biome as Blackforest would fail to parse as biome BlackForest.
    • Added installation check for YamlDotNet dll, to ensure it is present.
  • v1.0.4:
    • Fixed dungeon room names not being cleaned before registration, causing issues with local spawners matching.

    • Fixed error when printing world spawners with missing prefab to debug file.
    • Fixed error when having file-configurations with integrations not installed.

    • Moved documentation to https://asharppen.github.io/Valheim.SpawnThat/. Documentation will be updated here from now on.
  • v0.11.6:
    • It's the season of bugs! World spawner templates are now instantiated on entering world, meaning changes applied are no longer carried between worlds / re-entering. This is hopefully getting changed by IG in the future.
    • Fixed local spawners not honouring "Enabled=false". Configs were still attempted applied.
    • Fixed leftover optimizations causing spawners to get disabled in biomes outside the one player logged into.
  • v0.11.5:
    • More v0.205.5 fixes. World spawners were changed from no longer being per zone, but properly global, meaning Spawn That was reapplying its changes more than once.
