README
ZenUseItem
Instead of needing to put an item on your hot bar and then using 1-8 to interact with something you can use the item directly from your inventory on the target.
Works great with ZenSign
as it makes assignment of items very intuitive since you can do it directly from your inventory.
Full gamepad and keyboard support.
Example: Using Finewood On a Sign
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.

Sample Config File
## Settings file was created by plugin ZenUseItem v0.2.6
## Plugin GUID: ZenDragon.ZenUseItem
[General]
## Hide the hotbar 1-8 numbers until the modifier key is held down while the player is standing still.
## If the modifier key is "None" then this option will simply show/hide the numbers.
# Setting type: Boolean
# Default value: true
Hotbar - Hide Numbers = true
## In addition to using items directly from your inventory you can also use items from the hotbar keys 1-8.
## Keyboard: Hold down this modifier key and press the hotbar number.
## Gamepad: Hold down the alt interact button while pressing up on D-pad to use a the hotbar item.
## Alt interact is either LB, LT, RB, or RT depending on how you have configured your gamepad layout.
## Note: If you set this to "None" it will revert to vanilla 1-8 hotbar behavior and you will not need to hold a modifier button.
## Caution: Without a modifier it's quite easy to attach your hammer to an item stand or launch your sword with a catapult!
