PrecisionBuild
Visual building grid with surface snap for all pieces, corner/center toggle, custom rotation angles, and HUD hints.PrecisionBuild
A lightweight client-side building helper for Valheim. It projects an aligned visual grid directly onto surfaces (floors, walls, ground), lets any piece snap cleanly to grid corners or cell centers, and adds quick rotation angle switching.
Supports both English and Russian (automatically adapts to your game language).
Features
- Surface-Projected Grid: Renders a clean, semi-transparent white grid that conforms to terrain, wood, stone, and vertical walls.
- Universal Snapping: Snaps all building pieces, chests, crafting stations, and furniture to grid nodes.
- Snap Target Toggle (Corners / Cell Centers): Press
Jto switch between snapping to grid intersections (corners) or directly into the geometric center of each grid cell. - Smart Rotation Steps: Cycle through
90В°,45В°,22.5В°, and5В°rotation increments with a single key. Align chests flush with walls or make fine-tuned angular adjustments. - Surface Elevation Protection: Pieces won't sink into floors or clip into walls.
- Compact HUD Hints: Unobtrusive one-line hotkey reminder above the building HUD.
- Full Color Customization: White by default (
#FFFFFF), with support for any custom HEX color in config.
