About ShipCameraZoom
From ThunderstoreLets the camera zoom out further while on a ship (deck, helm, seat, rope). Smoothly returns to the vanilla max distance when you disembark.
ShipCameraZoom
Increases the maximum camera zoom-out distance while your character is on a ship — whether steering, riding as a passenger, sitting, or holding the sail rope. Away from the ship, the camera distance smoothly returns to vanilla. Briefly losing contact with the deck (e.g. jumping) does not reset the zoom.
Configuration
Available via ConfigurationManager (F1) in-game, or the config file BepInEx/config/sopmehua.valheim.shipcamerazoom.cfg:
Enabled— turn the mod on/off.ZoomMultiplier— how much to multiply the vanilla max camera distance by while on a ship (default 2.5×).ExitZoomSpeed— how fast the camera eases back to the vanilla distance after leaving the ship, in meters/second (default 8).
