README

Stop Biting My Boat

Boars and Necks have been reminded that boats are not food.

Stop Biting My Boat is a lightweight Valheim mod that prevents shoreline wildlife from treating boats like prey. Boars and Necks will ignore boats as static targets, and their boat damage is blocked as a fallback.

Stop Biting My Boat

Features

  • Boars and Necks no longer select boats as static targets
  • Blocks Boar and Neck boat damage as a narrow fallback
  • Optional setting to only protect empty boats
  • Keeps real threats like skeletons, draugr, trolls, and serpents unchanged
  • Lightweight and vanilla-friendly
  • Optional debug logging for testing

Installation

Install with a mod manager, or manually place the DLL into your BepInEx plugins folder:

BepInEx/plugins/

Configuration

After launching the game once, the config file will be generated here:

BepInEx/config/petri.valheim.stopbitingmyboat.cfg

Setting Default Description
Enabled true Enables or disables the mod.
DebugLogging false Enables extra log output for testing. Leave disabled for normal play.
OnlyIgnoreEmptyBoats false If enabled, Boars and Necks only ignore boats when no player is onboard.
PreventBoatDamage true Prevents Boars and Necks from damaging boats if they still manage to attack.

Compatibility

This mod only changes Boar and Neck behavior toward boats. Other enemies and sea threats are intentionally left unchanged.
