This mod requires the following mods to function
denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim
BepInEx pack for Valheim. Preconfigured with the correct entry point for mods and preferred defaults for the community.
Preferred version: 5.4.2351README
BotanicOwnerDebug
An optional client-side ownership visualizer for Valheim. Colours buildings and NPC mobs by their current network owner, with a live player legend. Useful for inspecting ownership distribution and transfers in multiplayer bases.
What it's for
Use BotanicOwnerDebug to identify object and mob owners, debug ownership transfers and configure ownership mods. Watch who owns nearby objects as players move around, then check whether your settings assign them to the intended player or server.
How it works
Press F10 during gameplay, with menus closed, to cycle:
Off → Buildings and mobs → Interactive buildings and mobs → Mobs only → Off
- White: server. Dark grey: unowned. Bright colours: players. Blue-grey: unknown owner.
- Colours follow ownership changes and remain visible through other objects. The legend refreshes every second; network delivery can delay new player information.
- The interactive filter hides non-interactive pieces such as walls and floors. Both wild and tamed mobs remain visible.
- Players, effects, loose items, transparent surfaces and PUP FPS clusters are excluded.
The overlay is local and leaves ownership, original materials and colliders unchanged. Active overlays add rendering work; turn them off after inspection.
Configuration
Edit BepInEx/config/botanic.owner.debug.cfg, then restart the game. F10 updates the display and filter settings automatically.
| Feature | Defaults and options |
|---|---|
| Display | ShowOwnerColours: off. ToggleKey: F10. |
| Filters | InteractiveObjectsOnly and MobsOnly; mobs-only takes priority. |
| Legend | ShowLegend: on. Displays owner colours and player names. |
| Range | MaximumDistance: 200 metres from the camera. |
| Colours | ColourStrength: 1. ColourSeed: 1337; matching seeds give matching owner colours. |
| Diagnostics | EnableLogs: off. |
Requirements and installation
- Install BepInEx on your client. Copy
BotanicOwnerDebug.dllintoBepInEx/plugins/BotanicOwnerDebug/. - Start the game to generate the config, then press F10 to show the overlay.
No server installation is needed. Works independently of TooManyLags, FiresGhettoNetworking and other ownership-management mods.
