RunicVault

RunicVault

A shared storage network for your Valheim base. Connect storage blocks to a runic core, then search your stock, craft equipment and build from the same supply. Carry a bound remote to access the network while exploring.

0.7.0 adds new building recipes and biome-based remote upgrades without boss trophies. It also brings the fast transfers, stable item details and inventory-space fixes developed since the last public release. Update the host and every player together.

What you can do

• Browse one item grid with native Valheim icons, search, categories and sorting.
• Craft and upgrade equipment with materials from the connected network and your pocket.
• Build with an ordinary hammer while carrying a bound remote. Normal station, placement, stamina and durability requirements apply.
• Expand from wooden storage blocks to bronze, iron, silver and black metal.
• Improve remote range using biome resources and ritual components.
• Quickly deposit stacks with Ctrl + click, Deposit all or Deposit matching. Equipped, protected and quest items are skipped.
• Transfer only what fits: extra stock stays in storage, and extra deposits stay in their original inventory stacks.
• Use English or Russian UI, following your Valheim language setting.

Storage updates follow changes to the network. Fast clicks are batched, and item details stay in place during transfers. Transfers use a background inventory checkpoint instead of a full character/cloud save each time. Normal game saves still work.

Install

Install RunicVault with Thunderstore Mod Manager or r2modman. Dependencies:

• denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim-5.4.2351
• ValheimModding-Jotunn-2.30.2

For manual installation, install those dependencies and copy plugins/RunicStorage/RunicStorage.dll into BepInEx/plugins/RunicStorage/. Keep only one copy of that DLL. Install the same version on the server and every client.

Back up your world and characters before updating. Existing RunicVault storage, block levels, bound remotes and paid range upgrades are retained. New recipes apply to future construction and upgrades.

Build your network

Build the core and blocks with your hammer. Blocks within 30 m connect to the nearest core. Press E at a core or block to open the network.

| Piece / item | Recipe | | --- | --- | | Runic Core | Fine Wood ×20, Surtling Core ×2, Greydwarf Eye ×10, Bronze ×5 | | Storage Block | Wood ×20, Stone ×10, Resin ×5 | | Wireless Remote — workbench | Fine Wood ×10, Surtling Core ×1, Greydwarf Eye ×10, Bronze ×2 | | Runic Hammer — workbench | Hammer ×1, Surtling Core ×1, Fine Wood ×5 |

Carry the remote and press Shift + E at the core to bind it. Press G to open the bound network. With the remote in your pocket, an ordinary hammer can draw missing building materials from storage within the remote's range.

Controls

| Action | Control | | --- | --- | | Open a core or block | E | | Open the bound remote | G — configurable | | Close storage | E, G or Esc | | Bind a carried remote | Shift + E at the core | | Upgrade a storage block | Shift + E at the block | | Pick up / place an item | Click | | Split a stack | Shift + click | | Quickly transfer a stack | Ctrl + click | | Protect an inventory item from bulk deposit | Alt + click | | Upgrade remote | ? Controls → Upgrade remote, or Ctrl + use the remote |

The storage cursor withdraws items when you place them in your inventory; right-click cancels it. Collect shows preserved deliveries if space changes during a pending transfer. Free an inventory slot and collect them. Existing deliveries survive updating the mod.

Storage upgrades

The block hover shows its next upgrade and price. Materials can come from your pocket and the network.

| Tier | Slots | Upgrade cost | | --- | --- | --- | | Wood | 18 | Initial block recipe | | Bronze | 27 | Bronze ×3, Fine Wood ×10 | | Iron | 40 | Iron ×5, Ancient Bark ×10 | | Silver | 54 | Silver ×4, Obsidian ×10 | | Black metal | 70 | Black Metal ×8, Fine Wood ×10 |

The core adds 16 slots. A replacement core reconnects surviving blocks in range; their contents and upgrades remain. Items stored in the destroyed core itself drop normally.

Remote upgrades

Starting range is 100 m. Each recipe unlocks the next range; no boss trophies are consumed. Carry the materials, store them in the network, or combine both. The Controls panel displays every ingredient and enables upgrading when the whole recipe is available.

| New range | Upgrade cost | | --- | --- | | 200 m | Surtling Core ×1, Greydwarf Eye ×10 | | 400 m | Ancient Seed ×3, Bronze ×3 | | 800 m | Withered Bone ×5, Iron ×5 | | 1600 m | Dragon Egg ×1, Silver ×5 | | 3200 m | Fuling Totem ×1, Black Metal ×5 | | 6400 m | Sealbreaker Fragment ×3, Refined Eitr ×10 | | Whole world | Bell ×1, Flametal ×5 |

Progression follows resource gathering in each biome. The server checks the paid tier and range. Remote upgrades keep the separate block-connection radius unchanged.

Configuration and compatibility

BepInEx/config/vovak.runicstorage.cfg is created on first launch.

| Setting | Default | Purpose | | --- | --- | --- | | Controls.Open | G | Remote opening shortcut | | Controls.ScrollSpeed | 300 | Scroll distance per wheel step | | Storage.Radius | 30 | Block connection radius in metres | | Storage.RemoteRange | 100 | Starting remote range; 0 removes range limits |

Storage range settings are controlled by the server. Old default E remote bindings migrate to G; other custom bindings are kept.

Guard-stone permissions and transfers are checked by the server. Each player's window opens independently. Repeated requests and replies do not repeat completed transfers. Compatibility with every other storage or crafting mod has not been tested.
