📋 About This Mod

Crafting Stations Level Based Range

This is a simple mod that increases the range of your crafting stations build ability depending on their levels. You can also set the default value for a level 1 crafting station (vanilla is 20). This also makes the secondary benches (Stonecutter or Artisans Table) to inherit the range of the parent stations (Workbench or Forge)

Manual Installation

To install this mod, you need to have BepInEx. After installing BepInEx, extract CraftingStationLevelRange.dll into games install "\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins"

Before the config file is generated, you must run the game with the mod installed. The config file is located at "\Valheim\BepInEx\config\smallo.mods.craftingstationlevelrange.cfg"

There are serveral config options available;

  • []EnableMod enables or disable the mod

    []DefaultRange is the range you can set for a level 1 crafting station (vanilla value is 20 and so is the default config option)

    []IncreaseAmount is the range at which you want the range to increase with each level (default is 10)

    []SearchRange is the range to search for crafting stations while holding a hammer. Warning: larger numbers may potentially cause lag, only increase the number if your stations will ever get above this build range.

    []ParentInheritance is to allow secondary Crafting Stations (Stonecutter or Artisans Table) to inherit the range of their parent stations (Workbench or Forge) if they are within range

    []InheritanceAmount is the amount to multiply the inheritance value by. You may want the secondary station to have a lesser value. (Example: 0. 5 would be 50% the amount of the IncreaseAmount variable)
