Dedicated server devcommands

Deprecated: Use Server devcommands instead.

This client side mod allows devcommands and utilities for server admins.

Some features and commands require also installing the mod on the server (event, randomevent, resetkeys, skiptime, sleep, stopevent).

Manual Installation:

1. Install the BepInExPack Valheim
2. Download the latest zip.
3. Extract it in the <GameDirectory>\BepInEx\plugins\ folder.
4. Add your steamID64 to adminlist.txt (if not already).

Check wiki for available commands and how to use them.

Features

• Console is enabled without having to set the start parameter.
• Cheat commands can also be used from the chat window (with autocomplete).
• Autocomplete works for every parameter, always providing some information.
• Multiple commands can be executed at the same time (when separated with ;).
• New commands can be created with alias command.
• Modifier keys work when binding commands to keys.
• devcommands is used automatically (if the admin check passes).
• debugmode, fly, ghost, god and nocost can be configured to be used automatically.
• God mode removes stamina usage and staggering.
• Minor tweaks to existing commands and other useful admin features.

Improved key bindings

Keybindings now work with modifier keys (key codes).

• bind [keycode] [value] [keys=]: Adds a new key binding with modifier keys.
  • bind j god: Toggles god mode when pressing J.
  • bind j god keys=leftalt: Toggles god mode when pressing J while left alt is down.
  • bind j god keys=-leftalt: Toggles god mode when pressing J while left alt is not down.
  • bind j god keys=leftalt,h: Toggles god mode when pressing J while both left alt and h are down.

After removing this mod, these binds very likely stop working or lead to unexpected behavior. Recommended to clear all binds with the resetbinds command.

Command aliasing

New commands can be created to shorten command names or to set parameter values.

This is intended to be used with other mods that add more complex commands than in the base game.

• alias [name] [value]: Adds a new command alias.
• alias: Prints all aliases.
• alias [name]: Removes the given alias.

Examples:

• alias dm debugmode: Adds a new command dm as a shorter version of debugmode.
• alias spawn5 spawn $ 5 $: Adds a new command spawn5 with the spawn amount fixed at 5.
• alias maxskill raiseskill $ 100: Adds a new command skill_max that raises the given skill to max level.
• alias resetskill raiseskill $ -100: Adds a new command skill_reset that resets the given skill.
• alias cheat debugmode;nocost;fly: Adds a new command cheat to quickly toggle cheats (if you don't want to use the config).

Enhanced commands

• pos [player name] allows getting the position of any player.
  • pos: Returns your position.
  • pos jay: Returns the position of a player named Jay,Heyjay or whatever is the closest match.
• event [event] [x] [z] allows setting the event coordinates.
  • event army_eikthyr: Starts an event at your position.
  • event army_eikthyr 100 -100: Starts an event at coordinates 100,-100.
• devcommands includes an admin check to allow using on servers.
• dev_config [value] toggles settings.
• dev_server_config [value] toggles settings on the server.
• search [term] [max_lines=5] allows searching the object ID list.
  • search wolf: Prints all object IDs that contain word "wolf".
  • search fx_ 10: Prints all object IDs that contain word "fx_" on up to 10 lines.

Enhanced map

The large map shows coordinates of the cursor when hovered. This can be useful for any commands that require coordinates.

If this mod is also installed on the server, admins can also receive position of players who have set their position as private (disabled by default).

These players are shown on the map with a ticked off icon and will also be available for the pos command.

Configuration

Three ways to edit the settings:

• Use dev_config and dev_server_config commands to instantly toggle values.
• Use the Configuration manager if installed to instantly toggle values for the client.
• Manually edit the valheim.jerekuusela.dev.cfg in the config folder (requires restarting the client / server).

Recommended way is to use the commands since you can configure the server and also bind them to keys.
