About DiscoveryRadius

From Thunderstore

Dynamic discovery radius depending on environmental conditions.

Discovery Radius

This mod will change the way how your discovery radius of Valheim will reveal your map.

Features

  • ServerSynced
  • Configurable base radius for travelling on land and sea
  • Configurable absolute min / max radius that will be applied after all multiplicators were applied
  • Configurable multipliers that will be applied based on in-game environmental conditions:
  • Altitude: higher altitude will reveal more
  • Forest: inside a forest the radius is reduced
  • Daylight: depending on light available the radius varies
  • Weather: weather conditions with less visibility will also lower the radius
  • Configurable display options that will add additional information to your HUD
