Mod for Valheim that displays an on-screen banner as soon as a creature with n stars appears near the player, so a two star moose never goes unnoticed.

Example

Features

• Alerts when a creature with n stars or more appears (n is configurable, default 2).
• The creatures to watch are configurable: a comma separated list with * wildcard.
• Tamed creatures are ignored by default (Ignore tamed), so a farm full of starred animals stays quiet. Turn the setting off to be alerted about them as well.
• Configurable detection radius (default 100 m, 0 = no distance filter: the game itself unloads zones and their creatures beyond its simulation distance, about 200 m with the default settings).
• The banner shows the localised name, the stars and the live distance and disappears as soon as the creature is unloaded, dead or out of the detection radius.
• The closest detected creature wins the banner: a nearer one takes it over, and only the best alerts are kept waiting behind it. With the Prefer most stars setting enabled, the creature with the most stars wins instead, ties being broken by distance.
