Safe Harbor
Buildable ship docks that do the seamanship for you. Steer any longship, karve, or raft into an open berth, press a key at the rudder, and the ship eases into a cradle, lifts out of the water, and is dry-docked (physics frozen) — with auto-repair each time. Press the key again to slide it back out to the waterline. Docking persists across save and reload.
A Valheim BepInEx 5 plugin built on Jotunn.
Features
- Two buildable dock pieces (Hammer > Misc):
- Safe Harbor Dock (large, ships) — 40 Wood / 20 FineWood / 10 Iron.
- Safe Harbor Skiff Dock (small, karves/rafts) — 20 Wood / 8 FineWood / 3 Iron.
- Docked ships are lifted and frozen; berth occupancy is stored so docking survives reloads.
- Status lamps per berth: green = open, red = docked.
- In-game tuner (Alt+L) plus a web tuner (
http://127.0.0.1:8781/) to position lamps/pieces live. - Optional PlanBuild/Infinity Hammer blueprint look-and-feel for custom docks.
- Indestructible by default; auto-repair on dock.
Requirements
- BepInEx 5 (
denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim) - Jotunn 2.30.x (
ValheimModding-Jotunn)
Installation
- Install through your mod manager (recommended).
- Manual: drop
SafeHarbor.dllintoBepInEx\plugins\.
How to use
- Restart the game after installing (the build pieces are registered at startup).
- Build a Safe Harbor Dock (large) or Skiff Dock (small) at the waterline near your base.
- Steer a ship toward a free berth. When within 50 m of a dock with a free berth, a prompt appears: Shift+D to choose dock.
- With the prompt visible, press Shift+D to open the berth picker (click or press 1-9). The ship eases into the berth, lifts ~1.8 m, and freezes — and is auto-repaired.
- To leave, sit at the rudder and press Shift+D again — the ship slides clear and pushes off.
Optional extras
- Status lamps show berth open/docked at a glance (config
StatusLights). - Alt+L opens the "Safe Harbor Tuner" to move/rescale lamps and pick a deck material live; "Save defaults" writes it back to config.
- Blueprint docks: with
UseBlueprinton, asafeDock.blueprint(large) orsmallDock.blueprint(skiff) auto-found in the PlanBuild blueprint folder is used instead of the procedural model; per-piece tuning is saved tosafeharbor_dock.json/safeharbor_skiff.json.
