Stonecutter Range Extender

Adjust the Stonecutter building radius from 5 to 200 metres, with the original Valheim dashed circle showing the configured radius.

Features

• Default radius: 40 m; configurable from 5 to 200 m.
• Existing loaded Stonecutters update without rebuilding them.
• The vanilla dashed range circle follows configuration changes.
• Disabling the mod restores the game's building radius and range circle.
• Other crafting stations are left unchanged.
• Circle visibility and terrain projection follow the game's normal behaviour.

Installation

Install with Gale or another Thunderstore-compatible manager. BepInExPack Valheim is installed automatically as a package dependency.

For a manual installation, install BepInExPack Valheim first, then copy the plugins/StonecutterRangeExtender folder into Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/. Keep only one copy of StonecutterRangeExtender.dll when updating.

Configuration

After the first launch, settings are saved to:

BepInEx/config/cz.valheim.stonecutterrange.cfg

[General]
Enabled = true
Range = 40

Range is the absolute radius in metres, not a multiplier or diameter. Existing configuration values are preserved on update.

For live in-game changes, use a compatible BepInEx ConfigurationManager (its menu is commonly opened with F1). It is optional and not bundled or installed automatically. Without it, close the game before editing the config. Gale's configuration editor can also be used while the game is closed.

Multiplayer and compatibility

Settings are local; this mod does not synchronise or enforce settings from a server. Players should use matching versions and settings. It does not load distant Stonecutters, change the station's interaction distance, or modify other stations. Other mods patching building range or range markers may affect the result; compatibility with every mod is not guaranteed.

Testing

Version 1.0.2 was reported working in-game by the author, including the range circle. Version 1.0.3 increases the configuration maximum to 200 m; it compiled successfully and passed isolated logic checks including the 200 m range and marker. The new 200 m setting has not yet been verified in-game.

Source

C# source, project and build script are included in the plugin's Source folder. Build with .NET SDK 8 or later against the DLLs from your Valheim installation:

.\build.ps1 -ValheimDir 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim'

No game or BepInEx assemblies are redistributed in this package. Icon artwork was generated with AI assistance.
