=========================================================================================

FehuNews

FehuNews is a server-side only Valheim BepInEx 5 event, notification, and announcement framework for the Forteca ecosystem.

Clients do not need the mod installed. In-game notifications use Valheim's vanilla ShowMessage routed RPC, so vanilla clients can display center-screen messages without FehuNews.

Installation

Install BepInEx 5 on the Valheim dedicated server.
Build FehuNews or use the generated DLL.
Install on the server only:

BepInEx/plugins/FehuNews/FehuNews.dll

Do not install FehuNews on clients unless they are also hosting a game.

Architecture

Event Source
  -> FehuEventManager
  -> InGameNotificationSink
  -> DiscordWebhookSink
  -> LoggingSink
  -> Anti-Spam

All internal features and external integrations publish FehuEvent objects into one centralized pipeline. The event manager performs duplicate suppression, main-thread marshaling, listener notification, in-game delivery, Discord delivery, and logging.

Supported Events

Server:

Server Started
Server Stopping
World Loaded
World Saved

Players:

Player Joined
Player Left
First Time Player Joined
Player Died

Announcements:

Scheduled Announcement

World:

Discord Webhooks

FehuNews sends Discord webhooks asynchronously. Delivery is non-blocking, serialized, retry protected, timeout protected, and failure safe. If Discord is offline, Valheim continues running.

Payload modes:

Plain text
Viking themed embeds titled Voice of Odin

Remote Announcements

Remote announcements let trusted automation send announcements without joining the server.

Enable:

[Remote Announcements]
EnableRemoteAnnouncements = true
RemoteBindAddress = 127.0.0.1
RemotePort = 8095
RemoteAuthToken = change-this-long-random-token
RemoteRateLimitSeconds = 5
RemoteMaxMessageLength = 240

Request:

curl -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:8095/announcement" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer change-this-long-random-token" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d "{\"message\":\"The market opens in ten minutes.\"}"

The endpoint also accepts plain text bodies. Remote announcements use the same event pipeline, so they display in game, send to Discord, log, and pass duplicate cooldowns.

Production note: keep RemoteBindAddress on 127.0.0.1 and expose it only through a VPN, firewall rule, or trusted reverse proxy. Binding public interfaces may require an HTTP URL ACL on Windows.

Admin Commands

Admin-only commands:

fehunews help
fehunews send <message>
fehunews reload
fehunews status
fehunews testwebhook

reload reloads config, resets the scheduled announcement timer, and restarts the remote announcement listener.

Public API

External Forteca mods can reference FehuNews.dll and publish events without knowing the internal sinks or delivery details.

using FehuNews.Core;

FehuEventManager.Publish(new FehuEvent(
    FehuEventType.TerritoryCaptured,
    "Territory Captured",
    "Clan Ravenshield captured Black Forest Outpost.",
    dedupeKey: "territory-captured:black-forest-outpost",
    context: new FehuEventContext(
        source: "FortecaTerritories",
        actorName: "Ravenshield",
        targetName: "Black Forest Outpost")));

Listeners can subscribe:

public sealed class MyListener : IFehuEventListener
{
    public void OnFehuEvent(FehuEvent fehuEvent)
    {
        // Observe FehuNews events.
    }
}

FehuEventManager.RegisterListener(new MyListener());

Reliability Notes

Valheim APIs verified during build:

ZNet.Start
ZNet.WorldSetup
ZNet.OnDestroy
ZNet.UpdatePlayerList
ZNet.SaveWorld
Character.Start
Character.OnDeath
ZRoutedRpc.InvokeRoutedRPC
MessageHud.MessageType.Center
EnvMan.GetDay

Player death and boss events depend on the dedicated server executing the relevant Character lifecycle. They are kept because they compile against and hook valid Valheim APIs, but they should be watched carefully during public testing across dedicated-server and hosted-world scenarios.

Boss summoned currently means a boss Character started on the server. It does not prove an altar summon specifically; another mod spawning a boss can also trigger it.

Build

Update Directory.Build.props if Valheim is installed elsewhere, then run:

dotnet build -c Release

Output:

bin/Release/net472/FehuNews.dll
