About ShipConfig

From Thunderstore

Configure every ship: health, sail and paddle force, turning, drag, damage taken, weather wear and build cost per ship, plus global multipliers. Server synced, live config reload.

ShipConfig

Configure every ship in Valheim: health, speed, steering, damage and build cost, for vanilla and modded ships.

Features

  • Every ship gets its own settings, defaulting to its vanilla values (below).
  • Global multipliers on top: health, sail force, paddle force, turning, damage taken and build cost, plus the map explore radius aboard a ship.
  • Modded ships get settings too (any ship with a Ship and a WearNTear component).
  • Changes apply at once, to new ships and to ships already in the world.
  • AshlandsOceanDamage off lets ships sail the Ashlands ocean unharmed (this skips the Drakkar's progression gate).
  • A small ship panel under the minimap while aboard (below).

Per ship

Raft, Karve, Longship, Drakkar and every modded ship each get:

  • Health: the ship's maximum health.
  • Sail force: top speed under sail; its height sets how far the ship heels.
  • Paddle force: speed while paddling.
  • Steering: rudder speed and turning force, under sail and paddling.
  • Drag and damping: top speed, sideways slide and how steady the deck is.
  • Damage: from every hit, rough seas, capsizing and the Ashlands ocean, or none at all.
  • Weather wear: health lost in rain and under water, on or off.
  • Build cost: a multiplier on every material.

Ship panel

  • Speed: how fast the ship moves, in km/h.
  • Speed multiplier: top speed against a vanilla ship of its kind.
  • Explore radius: how far around you the map uncovers as you sail.
  • Ship health: what the ship has left of its full health, orange then red as it wears.
  • Sailing abilities: with GrindstoneSkills, each ability and its cooldown; hover to read what it does.
  • Other mods can add their own lines to it.

Install

Needed on the server and every client. Install with r2modman or the Thunderstore app, or put ShipConfig.dll in BepInEx/plugins.

Configuration

BepInEx/config/com.ShipConfig.cfg; the ship entries appear after the first world load. Every setting is described in the file and applies without a restart; the server's values bind every player (Lock Configuration). Console: charter status shows whether the server binds your settings. Translate: save a copy of English.yml as ShipConfig.translations.<Language>.yml in BepInEx/config.
