📋 About This Mod
Notice
There is a new mod out that utilizes the base code from my mod, please go ahead and switch over to that mod since I will no longer be maintaining this verions: https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/2199
After using the AutoMapPins mod by Bdew, I found that I needed a bit of configuration for it (as well as many other people). I reached out and asked if they wouldn't mind if I tried my hand at adding some configuration. With their permission I have added a configuration file for the mod.
Changes from original Mod:
-
[]Added configuration file
[
]Added option to use colored pins (the dot) or the sprite for the item. Copper nodes will show Copper Ore, Berry bushes will show Berries.[]Added option to each pin to be able to show it, it's name, and to save it. The save isn't permanent. It is only for that session. They will vanish if you log out. However they will stay if you move away from the area.
[]Added option to disable multiple pins of the same type within a certain radius. Larger number means less pins in an area. (this is useful for berries)
[]Added scaling options for each pin. By default they will be smaller than the other pins on the map, just so everything isn't clustered.
- []Add ability to upload custom images for each pin
- Add other spawn types (crypts, spawners, chitin, etc.) - if there is interest

Fixed issue with being able to check off pins.
FYI- if you check off a pin and the 'X' appears behind it, you most likely have multiple pins in one location. Remove the check and then right click to remove a pin. Then try to add the check again. You may have to do this a few times to get down to just one pin, or for the X to begin appear on the top pin.
