About AutoFeed

From Thunderstore

This mod will automatically feed tameable creatures in the game with food from nearby chests.

Auto Feed

Auto Feed is a Valheim mod that automatically feeds tameable creatures from nearby chests. No more dropping food on the ground — animals feed themselves as long as a chest with the right food is in range.

Features

  • Automatic Feeding: Tameable creatures within range of a chest containing their food will be fed automatically.
  • Configurable Range: Set the radius creatures will search for containers.
  • Chest Filtering: Optionally restrict feeding to specific chest types by name prefix.
  • Server and client required: Install on both the server and all clients. Feeding logic runs on each client; the server installation is required for the network compatibility check.

Installation

  1. Install BepInEx on your server and each client.
  2. Place Narolith.AutoFeed.dll in BepInEx/plugins/ on both the server and each client.

Configuration

Configuration is generated at BepInEx/config/Narolith.AutoFeed.cfg on first run.

| Parameter | Default | Description | |-----------|---------|-------------| | Container Range | 10 | Radius (units) in which creatures search for food containers. | | Container Cache TTL | 5 | Seconds before the nearby-container list is refreshed for each animal. | | Chest Prefix | piece_chest | Only containers whose name starts with this prefix are eligible. Leave empty to allow all containers. | | Enabled | true | Enable or disable the mod. |
