About NoAutoPickup
From ThunderstoreTurns auto-pickup off near campfires, hearths, tames, and Item Drawers so tossed loot stays on the ground.
NoAutoPickup
Client-side Valheim mod. Turns auto-pickup off near player-built campfires and hearths, tamed animals, and Item Drawers so tossed items stay on the ground (drawers can vacuum them, tames can eat). Walking out of range restores auto-pickup to whatever it was before. World-generated fires (Ashlands ruins, enemy camps) are ignored.
The vanilla AutoPickup hotkey (default V, or the controller JoyAutoPickup combo) can turn it back on while you are still in a zone. When the mod changes the flag, it shows the same AutoPickup: On / AutoPickup: Off HUD message as the game.
Why
In co-op, people dump loot for Item Drawers to swallow. With auto-pickup on, the nearest player becomes the vacuum instead. Same problem when you toss food for a tame and walk back.
Range
Uses the largest of:
- Valheim default auto-pickup range (2)
- Live
Player.m_autoPickupRange(BiggerPickupRadius and similar) - Item Drawers
DrawerPickupRangefromkg.ItemDrawers.cfg
On the current pack that is typically 20 m because drawers are set to 20.
Install
Client only. Requires BepInExPack Valheim. Does nothing useful on a dedicated server.
Install with a Thunderstore mod manager, or drop NoAutoPickup.dll into BepInEx/plugins (a subfolder is fine).
Config
Generated at BepInEx/config/Ageous.NoAutoPickup.cfg after first launch.
Fires.Only Player Built (default on) ignores world-placed fire_pit / hearth objects so Ashlands ruin fires do not suppress auto-pickup.
