README

Handy Clock

A small client-side Valheim day/night dial clock. It deliberately shows no day counter and no digital time: the colored face communicates the day phase and the hand shows the exact in-game time.

Features

Modern procedural day/night dial; no external image files or asset bundles
Default placement at the bottom-left, to the right of Valheim's health/food/guardian-power area
Drag the clock while the inventory is open; the position is saved immediately
No input interception during normal gameplay
Configurable size, opacity, position, and visibility through BepInEx config
Client-only: it does not need to be installed on a server

Install

Mod manager

Install the package with r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager. BepInExPack will be installed automatically.

Manual

Install BepInExPack for Valheim.
Copy HandyClock.dll to BepInEx/plugins/HandyClock/.
Launch Valheim.

The generated configuration is BepInEx/config/monok.handyclock.cfg.

Controls

Open your inventory, then click and drag the clock to reposition it. The new position is saved immediately. The clock never captures mouse input during normal gameplay.

Build

The project targets .NET Framework 4.7.2 and references the locally installed Valheim and BepInEx assemblies.

For another installation, override the MSBuild properties:

dotnet build -c Release `
  -p:ValheimDir="D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Valheim" `
  -p:BepInExDir="D:\Thunderstore\Valheim\profiles\Default\BepInEx"
