Build Resource Requirements (Updated for Valheim 1.0)

> This is a fork of Jammerbam's Build Resource Requirements (original Thunderstore listing), rebuilt for Valheim 1.0 (Unity 6). All credit for the mod itself goes to Jammerbam; this fork only updates it for the current game version. Source: https://github.com/eoger/BuildResourceRequirements

Build Resources Requirements is a mod that allows control over whether resources are required for specific build categories, tools, and pieces. This includes support for vanilla and modded categories, and configuration syncing. I wrote this mod because I didn't really like how the world modifier for disabling resources turned off everything, including the cultivator.

Features

• Category-Based Resource Requirements: Configure resource requirements for specific build categories (e.g., Crafting, Furniture, Misc.).
• Tool-Specific Configurations: Enable or disable resource requirements for tools such as the Cultivator and Hoe.
• Piece Exceptions: Specify individual pieces that should never require resources, regardless of their category.
• Modded Category Support: Automatically detects and configures newly added modded categories.
• Skill Based Resource Requirements: Configurable option to reduce resource requirements depending on the players crafting skill level.
• Multiplayer Synchronization: Ensures all players share the same configuration when connected to a multiplayer server.

Requirements

• Valheim 1.0.x (Unity 6). Older game versions (0.22x and earlier) need mod version 1.1.0.
• BepInExPack_Valheim 5.4.2350 or newer (BepInEx 5.4.23.5, Unity 6 aware).

Installation

1. Install BepInEx (BepInExPack_Valheim 5.4.2350+).
2. Extract the BuildResourcesMod.dll into the BepInEx/plugins folder.
3. Launch Valheim to generate the configuration file.

Building from source

The project is an SDK-style csproj and builds with the .NET 8 SDK (no Visual Studio needed). ServerSync is pulled in as a git submodule and compiled straight into the plugin, so clone with submodules:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/eoger/BuildResourceRequirements.git

or, in an existing checkout, git submodule update --init. Then:

dotnet build -c Release -p:GamePath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim"

GamePath defaults to the standard Steam location. BepInExCore defaults to <GamePath>\BepInEx\core and can be overridden the same way. The output is a single bin/Release/BuildResourcesMod.dll.

Configuration

The configuration file is generated in BepInEx/config/Jammerbam.buildresourcesmod.cfg.

Categories

These are the available categories and their defaults:

[Categories]
MiscRequiresResources = true
CraftingRequiresResources = true
FurnitureRequiresResources = false
BuildingWorkbenchRequiresResources = false   (Build)
BuildingStonecutterRequiresResources = false (Heavy Building)
DeepNorthRequiresResources = false           (new in Valheim 1.0: the 67-degree steep roof/wall pieces)
CultivatorRequiresResources = true
HoeRequiresResources = true

Exceptions

Individual pieces can be added to the exceptions list:

[Exceptions]
## Comma-separated list of pieces that are always buildable.
# Setting type: String
# Default value: 
PieceExceptions = darkwood_wolf,darkwood_raven,wood_dragon1

Add piece names as a comma-separated list. Exceptions override category-based settings and never require resources.

Skill Based Resource Reduction

The mod has an option to enable a feature to reduce resource requirements depending on the players crafting sill level.
This works as a percentage, so if the player has a crafting skill of 50, the required resources will be 50% less.
There is also another option to completly disable resource requirements if the player has a crafting skill of 100. If this option is disabled, all pieces will require at least 1 of each required item.

Modded Categories

The mod will detect modded categories and add them to the config file. These categories are usually added when you load a world. If you want to configure a modded category, load a world, then close the game.
Currently, the way that modded categories are displayed in the config file is by a numerical value, which is assigned when it is loaded in the game.

## Require resources for modded category: <label from the piece table>
# Setting type: Boolean
# Default value: true
9RequiresResources = true

If you need to find the category, enable the debugging option, and select a piece from the category. In the log it should show something like this:

[Info   : Unity Log] [BuildResourcesMod] Piece 'Armory_TW' in category '9' requires resources: True

You can also use this same method to find the name of a piece to add it to exceptions.

Disclaimer

This is my very first mod, and my first time coding in C#. There are things that will inevitably be broken as I haven't been able to test for all scenarios. Please report if anything goes wrong so I can fix it.

Changelog

1.2.1

• Resource-consumption and requirement hooks now run at the highest Harmony priority. Fixes free pieces still being charged (including from nearby chests) when AzuCraftyBoxes is installed.
