📜 Overview
MrDayNight is a simple yet powerful mod that lets you control the duration of day and night in Valheim. Customize how long the sun shines or how long the shadows last — whether you want endless daylight or a world trapped in eternal night.
Perfect for both server administrators and solo adventurers, it provides fine-grained control over the day/night cycle while staying fully synced across multiplayer worlds.
⚙️ Features
- ✅ Customize day length and night length individually (in seconds).
- ✅ Fully synchronized across clients when used on a server with Jötunn.
- ✅ Automatically enforces server settings — players cannot override them.
- ✅ Works in single player (local settings) and multiplayer (server-synced).
- ✅ Clean logs and 100% compatible with all environment mods.
🔧 Configuration
After launching the game once, the config file will be created at:
BepInEx/config/genesisproj.mrdaynight.cfg
Example:
[Tempo]
## Duração do dia em segundos (default = 1200)
# Setting type: Single
# Default value: 1200
DayLength = 1200
## Duração da noite em segundos (default = 600)
# Setting type: Single
# Default value: 600
NightLength = 600

🧠 How It Works
- When a world starts, MrDayNight hooks into the EnvMan initialization.
- The mod sets
EnvMan.m_dayLengthSecbased on your chosen values. - On servers, these values are propagated to all connected players automatically.
- In single player, your local config values are used.
🏰 Server Behavior
| Environment | Behavior | |--------------|-----------| | Dedicated server with Jötunn | Server config is enforced on all clients. | | Single player | Local configuration applies. | | Vanilla server (without Jötunn) | Each client uses local config independently. |
