Server-authoritative Valheim marathon races with checkpoints, gear rules, HUD, and live standings.RunningMan
Server-authoritative marathon races for Valheim: checkpoints, gear rules, live standings, WR/RULES Signs, and an F6 race panel.
Install on the dedicated server and on every player's client. Everyone who races needs the mod — otherwise they won't get the HUD, yellow announcements, sounds, or join UI.
Want some great fun with your friends? Spice up Valheim with a fair race: shared gear rules, and Running skill normalized to 50 for the event only. Add your Steam ID to the server adminlist.txt, open the menu with F6, and place a start line, checkpoints, and a finish line.
Custom race sounds (start, countdown, checkpoint, finish, false_start) ship in the Sounds folder next to the DLL.
