Changelog

1.4.0

Eggs. Asksvin and chicken eggs appear in the list. ★ is the level of the animal that will hatch, and STATUS reads warm · 62% · 18 min (in your chosen progress format), or the reason it is cold: no fire, no roof, or roof 45% < 70%, from the same checks the game runs. nearby_filter egg shows only eggs. Read-only as always. Eggs on the floor count toward a hen's or asksvin's crowd exactly when the game counts them.

nearby_find. nearby_find <text> lists the chests within 50 m holding an item whose name contains the text, nearest first with the panel's DIST / DIR / ALT columns, and drops a temporary map pin on each (gone at logout; nearby_find alone removes them). It also names any saddled animal in range. Read-only: chest contents come from what the game already replicates to your client, no chest is opened or claimed. It reads private, warded and still-unopened chests too, so look at the Scope section before using it on a shared server.

Fish. Fish now appear in the list with the creatures, nearest first. Their size shows in the ★ column the way creature levels do (the game's [2] hover is one star), and STATUS lists the baits the species bites on, with a percentage only when the chance is under 100 %. nearby_filter fish shows only fish. Read-only like the rest: no fish is ever made visible or claimed, only its position and prefab data are read.

Names with colour tags. The Hildir quest bosses (Brenna, Geirrhafa, Zil, Thungr) and Lord Reto are localized by the game as <color=orange>…</color>. The panel, which draws without rich text, showed the tag cut by the column width. Tags are now removed from names and status text before display.

Built around watching a breeding pen.

Breeding. A tamed adult that breeds shows why it is or is not: Pregnant 25% · 45 s, Crowded 5/4 · Lox Calf 18.4 m with the nearest animal in the way, Partner pregnant, Partner hungry, No partner, or Love 2/4. Love points and pregnancy are read from the game's record; crowding and the partner check are recomputed with the game's own rule and each species' own ranges (a lox counts within 20 m, not 10)
Growth. A young animal shows how far it has grown: 62% grown
Time left. Taming, growth and pregnancy can read as a percentage, a time left, or both (62% grown · 12 min, the new default). Taming time says fed, since it only runs down while the animal has eaten, and counts Brew of Animal Whispers on players near the animal
Arrows. A fourth direction format, eight arrows from where you are looking, now the default
Named animals first, each group nearest first, so the parents are never pushed off the bottom of the list. A setting, on by default
Column widths are settings, in pixels; STATUS takes the rest. The panel now defaults to the bottom-right corner
The awareness column is headed ALERT, and no stars is blank rather than -
The list counts every creature in range; it used to stop at 25
nearby_dump lists, under each breeding animal, every animal the checks counted and how far away it is

Existing settings are kept: new defaults only apply to a fresh config.

First public release.

A panel listing every creature within 50 m, nearest first, toggled with N
Ground distance, altitude, star rating, and direction in one of three formats: degrees from where you are looking, relative letters, or world compass points
What each creature has noticed, and a red row for anything hostile that has been alerted
Live taming progress, read from the same record the game uses, so an animal a friend is taming reports its progress too
Text filter by name: nearby_filter boar
nearby_dump writes the current list to the log
Settings for the toggle key, the screen corner, the size and the direction format, editable in game with Configuration Manager
Client-side only: no RPC, no Harmony patches, and nothing written to the world

Tested against Valheim 1.0.16 with BepInEx 5.4.2351, including joining a dedicated server that does not have the mod.

Two things are deliberately not configurable: the 50 m radius, and the exclusion of other players from the list.
