Pet Protection for v1.0
An updated version of Selective Pet Protection by MagnusMagnuson, adapted for Valheim 1.0.
Original author: MagnusMagnuson Original project: https://github.com/MagnusMagnuson/SelectivePetProtection
Features
- Blue shield / Stun Recovery: prevents a protected tamed pet from dying and places it into a recovery state.
- While a pet is recovering, incoming damage is ignored before the normal damage/AI reaction is processed, preventing attacks from waking it early.
- Gold shield / Immortal: provides immortal protection.
- Changing the protection mode while a pet is recovering immediately finishes recovery and wakes the pet, providing a manual recovery/reset option.
- The normal recovery timer remains responsible for waking the pet automatically.
