ScrollHotbar

ScrollHotbar is a simple quality-of-life mod for Valheim that lets you cycle through your hotbar items using the mouse wheel. It also intelligently handles camera zooming — scroll the wheel freely to swap items, or hold Left Ctrl to adjust the zoom instead.

🧰 Features

• ✅ Scroll the mouse wheel to cycle through hotbar slots (1–8).
• ✅ Hotbar selection wraps around — no getting stuck at the end.
• ✅ Slots are switched even if they are empty (so you can prep items).
• ✅ Hold Left Ctrl to zoom the camera in/out, just like the default Valheim behavior.
• ✅ When Ctrl is not held, zoom stays fixed and is not affected by scrolling.
• ✅ Scroll position is preserved between switches — no unexpected zoom resets.

🎮 How It Works

• Scrolling up selects the next hotbar slot.
• Scrolling down selects the previous one.
• If Left Ctrl is held, the scroll wheel is redirected to control camera zoom.
• Zoom levels persist until manually changed.
• Scrolling through empty slots is allowed so that you can still prepare them.
