BetterPaths 0.1.0

BetterPaths rewards travelling on Valheim's painted roads. It works from the ground surface under the player, so existing roads qualify too.

Cart relief follows the puller. The mass calculation includes the empty cart and its cargo contribution. Items retain their usual inventory weights. Stepping off the road or dropping the cart restores its normal physics mass.

Install and configure

1. Install BepInExPack Valheim in your Valheim mod profile. This build used version 5.4.2360.
2. Open the profile folder. In r2modman, use Settings → Browse profile folder.
3. Extract the ZIP. Copy BepInEx/plugins/BetterPaths/BetterPaths.dll into the equivalent folder in the profile. Create the BetterPaths folder if needed.
4. Launch the modded game once. Look for BetterPaths enabled movement and BetterPaths enabled cart in BepInEx/LogOutput.log.
5. To change the percentages, close the game and edit BepInEx/config/com.bananas4dragons.betterpaths.cfg. Enter whole percentages such as 50 for a 50% reduction. Set a bonus to 0 to disable it.

Settings are local to each player in this build. For multiplayer, install the DLL in each player's profile and copy the same config to each profile if everyone should have the same values. Cart relief is applied by the local puller while their client owns the cart.
