About ValheimQol
From ThunderstoreA comprehensive collection of configurable quality-of-life improvements for farming, crafting, building, storage, production, tames, multiplayer, and more.

ValheimQoL Description
ValheimQoL is a comprehensive collection of configurable quality-of-life improvements for Valheim.
It improves farming, crafting, building, storage, fire sources, production machines, tamed creatures, multiplayer administration, HUD information, and many other everyday systems without adding new items or replacing Valheim's core progression.
This mod was created around the quality-of-life improvements I personally enjoy most when playing Valheim. For me, these are fundamental improvements that make the gameplay experience better and less repetitive.
Some features are disabled by default, so I strongly recommend reading the entire mod configuration file to discover everything that is available.
I will also provide my personal configuration file for anyone who wants to use the same settings that I use:

Main Features
FARMING AND HARVESTING (click to expand)
Grid Planting
The cultivator can plant crops in an organized rectangular grid instead of placing every seed manually.
- Configurable rows and columns. The default grid is 2x2.
- Supports up to 25 plants in one action.
- Automatically respects the plant's required growing distance.
- Configurable minimum spacing between grid positions.
- The grid begins from an organized corner and fills positions in order.
- If the player does not have enough seeds for the full grid, only the available number is planted.
- Each successfully created plant consumes its own seed or planting resource.
- A placement preview shows every planned position before planting.
- Valid and invalid positions remain visible in the preview.
- The build HUD can display the total cost of the grid.
- The first plant uses Valheim's normal stamina cost.
- Extra plants can consume a separately configurable amount of stamina, or their extra stamina cost can be disabled.
- Seeds may also be taken from nearby accessible containers when Craft From Containers is enabled.
