EasyAutoHarvest
Automatically harvest nearby supported resources within normal interaction reach, with a synchronized server blacklist and local preferences. For Valheim 1.0.16.Easy Auto Harvest
Harvest nearby resources as you explore, without aiming at each one or pressing Use. Gather berries, mushrooms, crops, loose materials, and supported modded resources while walking or running.
Automatic harvesting skips the picking animation while preserving normal harvest credit and skill rewards. Your pickup distance, drops, and resource regrowth stay the same. Manual harvesting and held Use actions work as usual.
Getting started
Requires Valheim 1.0.16 and BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2351.
Install with Gale, or import the downloaded ZIP as a local mod. For manual
installation, copy its BepInEx/plugins/EasyAutoHarvest/ folder into your game's
matching folder. Start the game once to create the configuration file.
Walk near a resource within your normal interaction reach to harvest it. By default, turning off the game's auto-pickup toggle also pauses automatic harvesting. You can assign a separate pause shortcut in the configuration.
Your preferences
Edit BepInEx/config/com.loon.easyautoharvest.cfg, or use a compatible in-game
configuration manager. Saved file changes reload automatically.
The Local section controls your character's preferences. These settings stay
your own when you join a server, even if the server locks its shared settings.
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
AutoHarvestEnabled |
On | Enable or pause your automatic harvesting. |
ExcludedPrefabs |
Empty | Resources you want to skip. |
RespectAutoPickupToggle |
On | Pause harvesting when the game's auto-pickup is off. |
SkipWhenInventoryFull |
On | Skip resources when there is not enough inventory space or carry capacity. |
ToggleShortcut |
Unassigned | An optional shortcut to pause or resume harvesting. |
DebugLogging |
Off | Log reasons resources are being skipped, to help troubleshoot. |
Resource lists use exact, case-sensitive prefab identifiers separated by commas
or semicolons. These may differ from the names shown in-game. With the game
console enabled, eah catalog lists known identifiers and whether each is
allowed or skipped. eah status shows whether harvesting is active;
eah pause and eah resume control your personal harvesting.
Multiplayer and server settings
Install the mod on the server and on each player who wants automatic harvesting. Both sides must use 0.2.0 or newer; 0.1.0 cannot be mixed with these versions. Players without the mod can still join and harvest manually. If the server does not have the mod, automatic harvesting stays inactive for connected clients.
The server's Server section controls shared rules:
| Setting | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Enabled |
On | Allow automatic harvesting. |
BlacklistedPrefabs |
Empty | Resources nobody using this mod may automatically harvest. |
LockConfiguration |
On | Restrict shared-setting changes to server administrators. |
ScanIntervalSeconds |
0.25 |
Time between checks for nearby resources, from 0.1 to 2 seconds. |
The server blacklist always takes priority over personal preferences. Blacklisted resources can still be harvested manually. In single-player, both sections of your own configuration apply.
Things to know
- Harvesting pauses during menus, combat, building, and other actions that prevent normal interaction. Resources must be reachable and accessible to your player.
- Inventory checks estimate available space and weight. Unusual or modified drops can still exceed that estimate.
- Crops are harvested but not replanted. Mining, logging, beehives, containers, and machines are outside this mod's scope.
- Disable other automatic harvesters to avoid overlap.
