About Skal

From Thunderstore

Tavern artifacts: map bottles to mead effects with cooldowns, plus a drunkenness system - camera sway, wobbly walk, and puking when you overdo it.

Skal

Skal turns decorative drink bottles into tavern artifacts, and gives Valheim a proper drunkenness system.

Features

Bottle effects

Map any drinkable bottle (from mods like Happy Hour) to a mead effect:

  • Drink the bottle → the mapped mead's status effect applies (icon + timer, top right).
  • Nothing is consumed from your inventory, the bottle IS the potion.
  • Balanced by a per-bottle cooldown.
  • Map a bottle to random for tavern roulette.

Drunkenness

Every sip adds drunkenness points. It wears off over time, unless you keep going:

| Level | Effect | |---|---| | 30+ | The camera starts to sway | | 60+ | Your walk drifts sideways | | 90 | You puke (vanilla Pukeberries effect: eaten food is lost) and sober up to 40 |

All thresholds, points per drink, sober-up rate and sway strength are configurable.

Configuration (r2modman Config Editor)

Each known bottle has its own entry:

Toro Red Wine = MeadHealthMinor:120:15
                 ^mead effect    ^cooldown s  ^drunk points

Set a bottle to none to disable it. Add unknown bottles via Extra Mappings:

German Bier=MeadStaminaMedium:120:18, House Ale=MeadTasty:90:12

Tip: drop an item and use object info (World Edit Commands) to read its exact prefab name.

Install

BepInEx plugin, client-side: BepInEx/plugins/Skal.dll, or via r2modman. Each player who wants the effects needs the mod.

Credits

  • Built for the "Les Fous du Bus" server.
