0.3.0 — 2026-09-17

A newborn's stars are drawn around its parents', no longer inherited. Base = the parents' average (mother and the partner she conceived with; mother alone if none was near). One table row per parents' average (two fewer / one fewer / same / one more / two more, in %): 0★ 0/0/80/19/1 · 1★ 0/40/40/19/1 · 2★ 5/35/40/19/1 · 3★ 5/20/56/19/0 · 4★ 10/30/60/0/0. Never more than two stars above the best parent, never above Max stars (4). A 0-star litter from 3-star parents happens: cull and select. The wild is untouched.
Config [Breeding]: Species, Max stars, Draw from 0..4-star parents (server, synced). Replaces 0.2.0's Chances per offspring.

Newborns can gain a star. A tamed animal's offspring has a chance to be born one star above its parent (defaults: boar and hen 25 %, wolf 10 %, lox and asksvin 5 %), capped at 2 stars for breeding. The wild is not affected. One roll per birth, on the owning client, marked in the creature so it is never rolled twice. [Breeding] Enabled and Chances per offspring (name:percent:maxStars), server, synced.

First build. Star roll per world level on the owning client (CLLC Medium tables, Maximum stars cap), stars beyond two in the nameplate, size per star, elemental infusions (name, tint, on-hit conversion, Spirit heal, Poison/Chaos death burst). Health and damage per star vanilla. Reads CLLC's creature fields, never writes them. Valheim 1.0.x, Jötunn 2.30.0, NotEnforced.
Not yet proven on the bench (restart 74 planned, docs/reeflevels-v0.md §6).
