  • Turn on your torches using a configured timer and keep them lit

  • Can put on the client or the server or both
  • More configuration options and easier to use timer settings

About the Mod

I wanted my torches to turn on at night and off during the day. I also did not want to fuel them.

Configuration

Settings Image

The config file is located in "<GameDirectory>\Bepinex\config" (You need to start the game at least once, with the mod installed to create the config file).

To configure the timer:

_______

  • OnTime - Time of day when torches should turn ON. (The default is set to 4.30pm in-game time)
  • OffTime - Time of day when torches should turn OFF. (The default is set to 6.30am in-game time)
  • AlwaysOnInDarkBiomes - (Default True) If true, objects listed in AffectedFireplaceSources will always burn in areas that Valheim considers 'always dark'. E.g Mistlands or any biome during a storm.
  • AllowAddingFuel - (Default False) If true, fuel can be added and sources will use the timer settings. If false no fuel is needed to burn torches

Note: If OnTime and OffTime is set to the same value, for example 0 and 0 the fireplaces listed in AffectedFireplaceSources will burn 24/7.

The config file is located in "<GameDirectory>\Bepinex\config" (You need to start the game with the mod installed for the config file to be created). _______
