About FireflyOfTheDeath

From Thunderstore

Adds a blood-red firefly that guides you toward your last remaining tomb in Valheim.

Firefly of the Death

A Valheim mod that adds a blood-red firefly designed to guide you toward your last remaining tomb.

The mod is built to interoperate with shudnal's Firefly, which is a hard dependency.

Features

  • Adds a separate Firefly of the Death consumable.
  • Uses a dark red light distinct from the normal Firefly.
  • Guides the player toward their last remaining tomb.
  • Normal Firefly and Firefly of the Death are mutually exclusive: only one firefly type remains active at a time.
  • Reusing the currently active firefly refreshes/reapplies its effect.
  • Configurable item recipe, stack size, weight, crafting station, crafting-station level, and duration.
  • Configurable indoor/outdoor light intensity, range, shadow strength, and light color.
  • Optional visible light source and flare.

Default Item Configuration

| Setting | Default | |---|---:| | Stack size | 20 | | Crafting station | Workbench | | Crafting station level | 3 | | Duration | 300 seconds | | Recipe | Dandelion x1, Greydwarf Eye x1, Resin x2 | | Weight | 0.5 |

Default Light Configuration

The default light is intentionally red and dimmer than the normal Firefly.

| Setting | Outdoors | Indoors | |---|---:|---:| | Intensity | 0.65 | 0.50 | | Range | 18 | 12 | | Shadow strength | 0.80 | 0.90 |

Default light color: dark blood-red.

Installation

Thunderstore / r2modman

Install Firefly of the Death through your mod manager. Required dependencies should be installed automatically.

Manual

  1. Install BepInExPack Valheim.
  2. Install Firefly by shudnal.
  3. Place the Firefly of the Death DLL in BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch Valheim once to generate the configuration file.

Dependencies

  • BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2350

Configuration

The configuration is generated after the first launch. The mod exposes settings for:

  • recipe
  • effect duration
  • light color
  • indoor/outdoor intensity
  • indoor/outdoor range

Compatibility

The mod intentionally integrates with the normal Firefly mod. Normal Firefly and Firefly of the Death are mutually exclusive so that only one follower effect is active at a time.
