📋 About This Mod
A BepInEx/HarmonyX mod for Valheim.
Immersive Portals reduces the artificial waiting time from using portals. It does so by implementing a custom teleportation method.
It calculates a destination position based off of the player's position and rotation when entering the portal giving a mostly smooth transition.
Configuration
Default teleport speed settings try to be as save as possible for the average user to avoid collision logic not being loaded on arrival.
If you believe your PC has enough power to savely go even faster you have to adjust the configs yourself!
The config file will be auto-generated on game start. To change it I highly recommend installing BepInEx. ConfigurationManager. It allows you to change the config while In-Game. This is especially good for fitting the config 'ConsiderAreaLoadedAfterSeconds' to your loading times!
