ZenItemStands
Make ArmorStands and ItemStands interactable containers.
- More natural and intuitive user interface.
- Quickly swap the gear from an Armor Stand onto your character with one button.
- Access an individual item from an Armor Stand without needing to drop the whole thing onto the ground.
- Easily place items into stands without needing to use the hot bar keys 1-8.
- Fully backwards compatible. If you remove the mod the items are not lost.
- Full gamepad support.

Client / Server Requirements
NOTE: Technically it is not required on the server. However, if it is installed on the server then it will force all clients to have it installed as well. This is to enable two modes of usage:
- Dedicated server admins can put the mod on the server to enforce all clients to have the mod installed and sync admin configs.
- Trusted friends can agree to run the same mods and connect through a vanilla dedicated server with no enforcement but with locked admin configs.
Client Only
This mod operates entirely client side. That means you can connect to any vanilla server with this mod installed. Other players do not need to have the mod installed.
NOTE: If you host a game session with this mod installed then it will be considered to be installed on the server since your session is the server. Therefor, all clients will be required to have it. If you don't want to require all players to have this mod then you will need to host your game in a dedicated server. You can easily download and run the Valheim Dedicated Server from Steam or host one in the cloud.

CHANGELOG
v0.5.2
- fixed config sync
v0.5.1
- removed BepInEx from dependency, Zen.ModLib handles it.
v0.5.0
- use Zen.ModLib
v0.4.2
- change log level for missing ObjectDB items to Warning instead of Error since it's not actually a critical error if you removed a mod that added items to a stand.
v0.4.1
- minor code cleanup.
v0.4.0
- refactor code: improved err handling for modded worlds.
- add config option to specify prefabs to be ItemStands and ArmorStands. NOTE: any prefab you list here must be designed like a vanilla stand, you can't just list any prefab you want. It has to be explicitly designed to use an ItemStand or ArmorStand component.
- improved support for modded and vanilla clients side by side.
v0.3.13
- bugfix: was not triggering event when stands were loading. ZenSigns would show 0 for items on armor stands or item stands.
v0.3.12
- maintenance: update internal logging format to be consistent with other ZenMODs, no major code changes.
v0.3.11
- added some error checking for items from mods that have been removed.
- code maintenance: refactor logging and config system.
v0.3.10
- UPDATE FOR VALHEIM v0.220.3
v0.3.9
- improvements to multiplayer experience when joining gaming sessions where some players do not have this mod.
v0.3.8
- should now function correctly even if not all clients have it installed. play with your friends on xbox.
v0.3.7
- bugfix: nullref when interacting with alters like fader's bells.
v0.3.6
- Rollback v0.3.5 requirements. You can use it without it being installed on the server, this is to allow players to use it on vanilla servers. It should still be on every client.
v0.3.5
- Require all clients and server to have the mod installed.
v0.3.4
- Updated README, no code changes.
