About HammerUpgrades

From Thunderstore

Upgrades Valheim's vanilla Hammer to quality 4 with exact durability, station-free Q3/Q4 area repair for all eligible player-built objects, and reduced Q4 building stamina.

Hammer Upgrades

English

Hammer Upgrades modifies only Valheim's existing normal Hammer. It does not register a new item or Hammer prefab.

Progression

| Quality | Upgrade | Workbench | Durability | Added behavior | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Vanilla recipe | none, as in vanilla | Vanilla | Vanilla behavior | | 2 | 5 Wood, 2 Stone | Level 2 | 300 | no area repair | | 3 | 2 Core Wood, 1 Fine Wood | Level 3 | 500 | 5 m area repair; repairs without a nearby crafting station | | 4 | 1 Ymir Flesh, 2 Yggdrasil Wood | Level 5 | 1000 | 15 m area repair; repairs without a nearby crafting station; 50% building and area-repair stamina |

Every Hammer quality remains repairable at a level-1 Workbench. Higher station levels apply only to upgrades. From Q3 onward, direct and area repairs of normal player-built pieces do not require a nearby Workbench, Forge, or Stonecutter. Building and removing pieces remain fully vanilla and still require their respective stations.

Area repair starts automatically after a successful normal repair. It works outward from the directly repaired target, skips full-health or ineligible objects, and stops when stamina runs out. All damaged player-built objects that the Hammer can repair are included, including carts and ships; natural and non-player-built objects remain excluded. Every additional repair uses Valheim's WearNTear RPC and therefore respects the network object's owner.

Configuration

  • AreaRepairRadiusQ3 = 5
  • AreaRepairRadiusQ4 = 15
  • AreaRepairStaminaCostPerPiece = 0 (0 uses Valheim's current Hammer cost)
  • Q4BuildStaminaMultiplier = 0.5
  • Q4RepairStaminaMultiplier = 0.5

Installation and multiplayer

Requires BepInEx 5. Copy HammerUpgrades.dll to BepInEx/plugins. Install the mod on the server/host and all participating clients for consistent behavior and configuration. The mod never claims piece ownership; actual repair health is still applied only by the vanilla ZNetView owner.

Limitations

The mod changes only Valheim's vanilla Hammer. Area-repair radius and stamina costs are configurable. Multiplayer and restart verification remain recommended before public use.

Deutsch

Hammer Upgrades erweitert ausschließlich Valheims vorhandenen normalen Hammer. Es wird kein neues Item oder Hammer-Prefab registriert.

Fortschritt

| Qualität | Upgrade | Werkbank | Haltbarkeit | Zusatzfunktion | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Vanilla-Rezept | keine, wie Vanilla | Vanilla | Vanilla-Verhalten | | 2 | 5 Holz, 2 Stein | Stufe 2 | 300 | keine Flächenreparatur | | 3 | 2 Kernholz, 1 Feinholz | Stufe 3 | 500 | Flächenreparatur, 5 m; Reparatur ohne nahe Werkstation | | 4 | 1 Ymir-Fleisch, 2 Yggdrasil-Holz | Stufe 5 | 1000 | Flächenreparatur, 15 m; Reparatur ohne nahe Werkstation; 50 % Bau- und Flächenreparatur-Ausdauer |

Alle Hammerqualitäten bleiben bereits an einer Werkbank der Stufe 1 reparierbar. Die höheren Werkbankstufen gelten nur für das jeweilige Upgrade. Ab Q3 umgehen direkte und Flächenreparaturen für normale, spielergebaute Bauteile die nahe Werkbank-, Schmiede- oder Steinmetz-Anforderung. Bauen und Entfernen bleiben vollständig Vanilla und benötigen weiterhin die jeweilige Station.

Die Flächenreparatur startet automatisch nach einer erfolgreichen normalen Reparatur. Sie arbeitet vom direkt reparierten Zielbauteil nach außen, überspringt vollständige oder ungeeignete Objekte und endet, sobald die Ausdauer nicht mehr reicht. Alle beschädigten spielergebauten Objekte, die der Hammer reparieren kann, werden einbezogen, einschließlich Karren und Schiffe; Natur- und nicht spielergebaute Objekte bleiben ausgeschlossen. Jede zusätzliche Reparatur verwendet Valheims WearNTear-RPC und respektiert dadurch den Besitzer des Netzwerkobjekts.

Konfiguration

  • AreaRepairRadiusQ3 = 5
  • AreaRepairRadiusQ4 = 15
  • AreaRepairStaminaCostPerPiece = 0 (0 verwendet Valheims aktuelle Hammerkosten)
  • Q4BuildStaminaMultiplier = 0.5
  • Q4RepairStaminaMultiplier = 0.5

Installation und Multiplayer

Benötigt BepInEx 5. Kopiere HammerUpgrades.dll nach BepInEx/plugins. Für konsistentes Verhalten und identische Konfiguration muss die Mod auf dem Server/Host und auf allen beteiligten Clients installiert sein. Die Mod fordert keinen Besitz von Bauteilen an; die eigentliche Reparatur wird weiterhin nur vom jeweiligen Vanilla-ZNetView-Besitzer angewendet.

Einschränkungen

Die Mod verändert ausschließlich den Vanilla-Hammer. Der Flächenreparatur-Radius und die Ausdauerkosten sind konfigurierbar. Der Mehrspieler- und Neustarttest bleibt vor einer öffentlichen Nutzung empfohlen.
