ShipToShoreCam

Automatically change the game camera's zoom level when entering and exiting a ship. Ever been in the situation where you've zoomed all the way out on a ship to see as much as possible, but then you go ashore and try to fight mobs forgetting to change the camera back to a better zoom level on land? I have. This mod fixes that.

Both zoom levels (enterShipZoom and exitShipZoom) are user-configurable. When you enter a ship, the camera's zoom is changed to the enterShipZoom value and when you exit a ship it goes to the exitShipZoom value. Or use the useZoomLevelBeforeEntry to automatically revert to your pre-entering zoom level.

Code can be found on github. Issues or change/feature requests can be sent via github or to @FixingDeer at the Valheim Modding Discord.

Installation (manual)

To install manually:

1. Move ShipToShoreCam.dll from the archive into <GameDirectory>\BepInEx\plugins.
2. Run the game.

Upgrading from 1.0.0

Recommend deleting the ShipToShoreCam.dll from <GameDirectory>\BepInEx\plugins and fixingdeer.ShipToShoreCam.cfg from <GameDirectory>\BepInEx\config. It doesn't seem to cause any issues, but it'll be cleaner since some of the variable names have changed and the older ones don't seem to get cleared out of the .cfg file.
