Serverside QoL

This mod adds some QoL features as a serverside-only mod.

It's designed and tested for dedicated servers with vanilla/console clients (e.g. XBox/PS/Switch users).

If you'd like to support me, subscribe as a test user. You can help by testing the beta versions on hexium.

Features

Configure mob drop tables.

On startup, a template configuration file will be generated.

Field	Description
Prefab	The name of the item to drop. This is the name of the prefab in the game files, not the display name. Technically non-item prefabs (like creatures) should also work, but that's not tested. See https://valheim-modding.github.io/Jotunn/data/objects/item-list.html
AmountMin	The minimum amount to drop. The actual amount is chosen randomly between `AmountMin` and `AmountMax`.
AmountMax	The maximum amount to drop.
Chance	The probability of dropping the item. 0 = 0%, 1 = 100%
OnePerPlayer	If true, exactly one item per player is dropped, other fields which influence the dropped amount are ignored.
DoubleAmountAndChancePerLevel	If true, `AmountMin`,`AmountMax` and `Chance` are doubled for each additional level (star) of the killed creature.
IgnoreWorldResourceRate	If true, world modifiers that change the amount of resources dropped have no effect for this drop.
MinLevel	If set, the minimum level the killed creature needs to have for this drop.
MaxLevel	If set, the maximum level the killed creature needs to have for this drop.
RequiredGlobalKey	If set, the global key that needs to be set for this drop.
ForbiddenGlobalKey	If set, the global key must not be set for this drop.
QualityIncreaseChance	The probability for the dropped item to gain an additional quality level (upgrade level of gear/level of fish/level of eggs). 0 = 0%, 1 = 100%
DoubleQualityIncreaseChancePerLevel	If true, `QualityIncreaseChance` is doubled for each additional level (star) of the killed creature.
MaxQuality	The maximum quality the drop can be.
MultiplyMaxQualityByLevel	If true, `MaxQuality` is multiplied by the level of the killed creature. `QualityIncreaseChance` is adjusted so that the chance to get a max quality item stays the same across creature levels.
