Installation

- Launch Valheim through your chosen manager to auto-install dependencies.
- Enjoy a wild yet cozy adventure!
Important Changes to Vanilla
- MarsarahTweaks reduces a lot of grinding and removes skill loss. It also adds a Fine Cape and Pocket Portals
- Portals allow processed metals through, but remove 40% of unprocessed ores when traveling. This provides an
alternative strategy to transporting ores that requires some minimal base building - MarsarahTweaks enables Automatic Progession Halt. This prevents players from easily advancing technology without first defeating the biome boss. This can be worked around, but generally encourages players to progress rather than exploit Trolls and hardness messages bosses in early game. They can be randomly more difficult than normal
