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: 5.4.2333
ValheimModding-Jotunn
Jötunn (/ˈjɔːtʊn/, 'giant'), the Valheim Library was created with the goal of making the lives of mod developers easier. It enables you to create mods for Valheim using an abstracted API so you can focus on the actual content creation.
Preferred version: 2.30.2README
SpyglassAndExplorationTweaks
A craftable Spyglass that you wear in the utility slot (like the Megingjord or Wisplight) to reveal more of the map around you as you explore, plus an option to make map table data look fully explored.
It works on its own. Alone, or on a server without this mod, you use your own settings. If the server also has the mod, players without it can't join, and the server's settings replace everyone's.
The Spyglass
Craft it at the forge. Wear it in the utility slot; while you do, the area of the map that clears around you is bigger. It upgrades six times, with materials from each biome:
| Level | Materials |
|---|---|
| 1 (craft) | 5 Copper, 10 Resin |
| 2 | 8 Iron, 8 Guck |
| 3 | 8 Silver, 6 Crystal |
| 4 | 8 Black Metal, 10 Tar |
| 5 | 8 Carapace, 10 Yggdrasil Wood |
| 6 | 8 Flametal, 10 Charred Bone |
The normal reveal radius is 100 m, and each level adds ExtraRadiusPerLevel (50 m by default), so level 6 reveals 400 m.
Map table data as explored
When you read a map table, the areas other players explored show on your map slightly shaded. With SharedMapCountsAsExplored on, that data shows as fully explored, exactly like the places you walked, and is kept as your own. It is off by default (the game's normal look). Data already saved on your map is converted the next time you load the world.
Settings
Edit them with Configuration Manager (F1). If the server has the mod, admins can change them in-game and they apply to everyone.
| Section | Setting | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Spyglass | ExtraRadiusPerLevel | Meters added to the map reveal per level (default 50) |
| Spyglass | CostPercent | Scales every material cost (default 100) |
| Spyglass | RequireStationUpgrades | Off by default: upgrades only need a forge. On: each level also needs the forge to have one more upgrade |
| Map | SharedMapCountsAsExplored | Show map table data as fully explored (default off) |
Notes
- The Spyglass uses the Wishbone's look for now.
- The server needs the mod and Jötunn installed to enforce settings. Players need the same major.minor version.
