QuickPing

ExploreTogether's ping feature remastered.

Compatible with Valheim 1.0.21 (Ashlands, Bog Witch, Deep North).

Install Instruction

Ping position and markers will always work but must be installed on all clients if you want everyone able to see pinged object's name display.

Features

• Use T (by default, see config) to ping what you point, name of pointed object/creature is displayed in the world and on the minimap to all players. Some objects automatically add a pin on map if a player ping them:
  • Ores and resources (hammer): copper, tin, obsidian, silver, Petrified Gammeltroll, muddy scrap piles, Mistlands giant remains, flametal, bog iron, sulfur rock, tar pits, guck sacks, Leviathans
  • Pickables (point): berries, mushrooms, thistle, dandelion, Jotun puffs, royal jelly, vineberries, fiddlehead, smoke puff, volture eggs, luminous larva, wild seeds...
  • Dungeons and points of interest (rune): Troll Caves, Burial Chambers, Bear Caves, Sunken Crypts, Frost Caves, Infested Mines and Citadel, Putrid Holes, Charred Fortress, Deep North dungeons, ruins, towers, lighthouses, shipwrecks, portals
  • Traders and settlements (house): Haldor, Hildir, the Bog Witch, villages, abandoned houses, swamp huts, farms, harbours
  • Hildir's quest dungeons use Hildir's map icons
  • Boss altars (boss icon): Eikthyr, The Elder, Bonemass, Moder, Yagluth, Fader
• (New) Ping whole structures: pointing at any part of a village, ruin or dungeon entrance (walls, roofs, doors...) pings and pins the whole location. Your own buildings and resources worth pinning on their own (ores, berries...) are kept.
• Use G (by default, see config) to force add a marker (exclamation point by default if not filtered) on map with pointed object's name.
• If a pinned object is destroyed, it will also destroy its attached marker.
• (New) Use Alt + Ping (by default, see config) for a Custom Name Ping: ping what you point at and choose the name and icon of its pin, even where there is no pin yet. Tick "Remember this name" to use it for every object of the same kind.
• (New) The distance to a ping can be shown under the ping text (see config).
• Change text colors (chat, ping, shout, whisper, names) in config
• Change already existing Portal pin by pinging the portal again, it will change the marker's name to portal tag.

What's Changed

• Fix: the mod didn't load (Could not load file or assembly 'MonoMod.Backports') (#125)
• No longer needs Jotunn: only BepInEx is required
• The pin editor is now called Custom Name Ping. Its key setting is renamed CustomNamePingInputKey; a binding changed under the old name (RenameInputKey) is kept
