BoatTracking
Hold E to name boats and track them on the map. Required on dedicated server AND all clients.BoatTracking
Name your boats with hold E, then find them on the map from anywhere - even across the ocean, even when nobody is near them.
This is a server + client mod. The dedicated server and every player need the same BoatTracking install. Client-only will not sync map pins.
Install (multiplayer / dedicated)
- Open r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager → Valheim.
- Install BepInExPack_Valheim if you do not already have it.
- Online → search
DevDonkey-BoatTracking→ Install on your client profile. - Install the same package on your dedicated server profile (or copy
BoatTracking.dllinto the serverBepInEx/plugins/folder). - Restart the server, then launch the game through the mod manager.
If client and server builds get out of sync, you will see an in-game warning asking you (or the host) to update.
Install (singleplayer)
Same package via r2modman is enough - the local host acts as the server.
Manual: put BoatTracking.dll in BepInEx/plugins/ (needs BepInExPack_Valheim).
How to use
- Look at a ship and hold E to open rename (tap E still boards / steers as normal).
- Names show on the minimap and full world map.
- Unnamed ships still appear as Raft, Karve, Longship, or Drakkar (config can hide unnamed ones).
Ships tracked
Raft, Karve, Longship, and Drakkar (Ashlands).
Notes
- Does not track carts.
