📋 About This Mod

MofoMojo's Extended Wishbone Tweaks 1. 2

This mod provides the ability for the Wishbone to find several new items:

  • []Copper

  • Deathquitos (thanks to RaidoRadh for suggestion)!

    Yes, it's pretty easy to find Copper and Tin... and you don't get a wishbone until well after you find copper and tin

    but it was requested by a server mate.

    Deathsquito's detection provides an additional use for the Wishbone in the Plains now.

    You can also configure the range of detection for the new items, and distances for Silver, Mud Piles, and Buried Chests.

    Copper defaults to 60

    Deathsquitos 60

    Silver, Mud Piles, and Buried Chests remain at their defaults of 20.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Extended Wishbone Tweaks is a UI mod for Valheim that expands the Wishbone's detection to include Copper, Tin, and Deathsquitos, with configurable distances for Silver, Buried Chests, and Mud Piles. It's for players who want more control over treasure hunting and resource gathering.

✨ Key Features

Adds Wishbone detection for Copper, Tin, and Deathsquitos.
Configurable detection distances for Silver, Buried Chests, and Mud Piles.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Makes the Wishbone way more useful for finding early-game metals like Copper and Tin.
  • Configurable distances mean you can tune it to your playstyle, whether you want a casual hunt or a precise dig.
  • Small but dedicated community (58 endorsements) — it's a niche fix that does exactly what it says.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in April 2021 — might not work with the latest Valheim patches, so check for updates.
  • Only affects the Wishbone — if you wanted broader UI changes, this isn't it.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Valheim players who love treasure hunting and want the Wishbone to be more than just a silver detector. If you're tired of missing buried chests or want to track down Deathsquitos for those needles, this is for you. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla Wishbone or want a full UI overhaul.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod tweaks the Wishbone, make sure you've actually crafted one in-game before testing the new features.
  • If you're using a mod manager, install this like any other mod; if manual, just drop the DLL into your BepInEx plugins folder.
  • After installing, check the config file to adjust distances to your liking — the defaults might be too generous or too tight.
