📋 About This Mod
Build ExpansionLatest update ensures compatibility with custom hammers and other PieceTables
Expands Hammer build table to desired height and width and adds a scrollbar.
Main purpose is to allow for mod developers to add pieces to build without worrying about exceeding limits.
Amount of space required for expansion is now automatically calculated, no more empty build icons.
-- This mod does NOT include extra building pieces, it expands the build menu so that other mods can add them. --

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Essential for modded builders – without this, extra pieces might not show up in the Hammer menu.
- Community-approved (1,108 endorsements) – clearly fills a real need.
- Lightweight and focused – does one job without bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in May 2021 – may be outdated for current Valheim versions, so test before relying on it.
- Requires other mods to be useful – it's a compatibility patch, not a content mod.
For Valheim players who run mods that add new build pieces and need them to appear in the Hammer menu. Skip if you play vanilla or don't use building mods – this does nothing on its own.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the DLL in your BepInEx/plugins folder – that's the standard spot for Valheim mods.
- Make sure you have BepInEx installed first, as most Valheim mods require it.
- If build pieces don't show up, check that the mod is compatible with your game version – updates may break it.
