About WaterproofYourWood
From ThunderstoreCraft a Waterproof Brush and seal wooden building pieces against rain, including player-built and world-generated structures. Uses 1 Resin per piece.
\\\Updated the mod to version 1.4!\\\
Wood pieces could still deteriorate and get damaged by players who do not have the mod installed.
Updated the mod so it can be installed on a server as well.
Server-side install: Makes sure that once pieces are waterproofed, they will never deteriorate or get damaged by water/rain.
Client-side install: Still necessary to create the waterproof brush and apply it to wooden pieces.
To be clear, if all players on the server use the mod, then the server install is not needed.
Only when you have players that do not have the mod installed, should you install this on the server as well.
You can now also edit a .cfg file to make the waterproof brush use resin again.
The file "valheim.waterproofbrush.cfg" can be found in "BepInEx\\config".
Set the value "UseResin = True" if you want the brush to use resin again (default is set to "False").
\\\\Update 1.3 fixes an issue when holstering the waterproof brush / removed the resin cost and made waterproofing free\\\\
\\\Update 1.2 adds support for Valheim 1.0.14\\\
\\Version 1.1 adds the free cam from my "ValheimBuildCamera" mod\\
