Hold To Command

GitHub Repository

A small quality-of-life mod that separates petting and commanding tamed creatures.

In vanilla Valheim, interacting with a commandable tameable will immediately issue a command instead of allowing you to pet it.

This mod changes that behavior to:

Tap → Pet creature
Hold → Command creature
Shift + Use → Rename (unchanged vanilla behavior)

Features

Restores the ability to pet commandable creatures
Adds intentional hold-to-command interaction
Adjusted hover text to reflect new controls
Fully localized (community language support)
Uses external translation file (editable)
Lightweight and fully standalone (no dependencies)

Configuration

HoldToCommand provides the configurable option HoldThreshold
to define how long the Use key must be held before a command is issued.
Adjust the value to match your preferred hold duration.

Installation

Install BepInEx for Valheim
Place the contents of the zip into:

Valheim/

This will install:

BepInEx/plugins/HoldToCommand/HoldToCommand.dll
BepInEx/plugins/HoldToCommand/HoldToCommand.Translations.txt

Launch the game

Translations

HoldToCommand uses an external file:

HoldToCommand.Translations.txt

You can edit or extend this file to customize translations.

Format:

Language|Hold $1|Command

Example:

English|Hold $1|Command
German|$1 halten|Befehlen

$1 will automatically be replaced with the Use key (e.g. E).
If a language is missing, English is used as fallback.

Community translations are welcome.
