Shipwright's Touch

Shipwright's Touch

A Valheim mod that lets you name your ships and customize sail colors.

Features

• []Ship Naming: Rename your ships using Shift + E while looking at the rudder, seats, mast, or hull.

  []Dynamic Hover Text: The ship's custom name is displayed in yellow at the top of the hover text for all ship parts, including storage containers.

  []Sail Coloring: Customize your ship's sail style during construction or modification. Press G while placing a ship with your Hammer, or Shift + G on an existing ship.

  []Builder Identity & Restrictions: When a ship is constructed, the builder's identity is recorded. Only the builder (owner) can rename, recolor, or deconstruct the ship. The owner's name is displayed in the hover text.

  []Mod Compatibility: Specifically designed to work alongside popular mods like QuickStackStore. Interaction prompts are disabled on containers to ensure no conflict with storage-specific features.

  []Server Sync: Names, colors, and owners are stored in the ship's ZDO and synchronized across the server.
