ShipConfig
Configure every ship: health, sail and paddle force, turning, drag, damage taken, weather wear and build cost per ship, plus global multipliers. Server synced, live config reload.ShipConfig
Configure every ship in Valheim: health, sail and paddle force, steering, drag, weather wear, damage taken, build cost and more, with server sync and live config reloading.
Features
- One entry per ship and setting in the
Shipsection, named after the prefab (VikingShip.Healthis the Longship): Raft, Karve, Longship, Drakkar, and any modded ship that has both aShipand aWearNTearcomponent - Per ship:
Health,SailForce,PaddleForce,RudderSpeed,TurnForceSailing,TurnForcePaddling,ForwardDrag,SidewaysDrag,AngularDamping,WaterImpactDamage,UpsideDownDamage,WeatherWear,AshlandsOceanDamage,DamageTaken,InvulnerableandBuildCost. Every default is the ship's vanilla value - Global multipliers on top of the per-ship values: health, sail force, paddle force, turning, damage taken, build cost
- Values apply to newly built ships and to ships already loaded in the world
- Health changes only the maximum: a loaded ship keeps its current health, so raising the max shows more damage until the ship is repaired, and lowering it leaves the ship above max until it takes damage
AshlandsOceanDamageoff lets a ship sail the burning Ashlands ocean unharmed. WARNING: that removes the progression gate that makes the Drakkar necessary, and the ocean effects and world key it triggers- Config changes apply immediately without restarting the game
- Server enforces its settings for all connected players; "Lock Configuration" prevents clients from overriding them
How to Install
- Install BepInEx for Valheim.
- Install this mod.
For manual install, drag ShipConfig.dll into the BepInEx/plugins folder.
The ship entries are added to the config file when a world is loaded for the first time, because the ship prefabs only exist in a loaded world.
Server settings
Gameplay settings come from the server. With Lock Configuration on (the default), every player uses the server's
values and cannot change them locally; server admins can still edit them in game. With it off, each player uses
their own file. In the console (F5), charter status shows whether the server binds your settings, charter diff
lists where the server's values differ from your own file, and charter versions lists the mods on both sides.
Joining with a missing or mismatched version of the mod shows one screen naming the mod and both versions, with a
refusal code that is also written to the server's and your own log.
Building
Requirements: .NET SDK 8, Valheim installed with BepInEx, and the ValheimModLibs repository checked out next to this
one. pack.ps1 builds the mod and creates a Thunderstore zip in thunderstore/.
