README

Radius Rings

Draws concentric, terrain-hugging rings on the ground around your character, spaced at a configurable number of metres (5m by default), out to a configurable maximum radius. Every Nth ring is drawn brighter and thicker, and every ring carries a floating "Xm" label, so you can judge distances by eye instead of guessing.

Useful for anything measured against a fixed range — weapon reach, aggro radius, building footprints, or (the case this was built for) checking how far apart placed markers are relative to a mod's own distance-gated behaviour.

Usage

Press the toggle key (RightAlt+R by default) to show or hide the rings. They follow you and hug the terrain as you move.

Configuration

All settings live in the BepInEx config file for this plugin (EleventhTower.valheim.radiusrings.cfg), or in your mod manager's config editor.

Setting Default Description
Toggle Key R + RightAlt Shows/hides the rings.
Max Radius 50 Rings are drawn out to this distance, in metres.
Ring Spacing 5 Distance between rings, in metres.
Ring Segments 64 Points per ring circle. Higher is smoother but costs more per refresh.
Update Interval 0.15 Seconds between ring refreshes while visible. Lower is smoother but costs more.
Highlight Every 2 Every Nth ring is drawn brighter/thicker (e.g. 2 highlights 10m/20m/30m... at 5m spacing). 0 disables highlighting.

Installation

Install via a mod manager (r2modman / Thunderstore Mod Manager / Vortex) like any other Thunderstore Valheim mod — it depends on BepInExPack, which will be pulled in automatically.

Manual install: drop RadiusRings.dll into BepInEx/plugins/.

Changelog

1.0.1

  • Ring labels now face the direction the camera is looking (falling back to north if looking straight up/down), instead of always sitting on the north side of the ring regardless of view.
  • Plugin namespace changed to EleventhTower.valheim.radiusrings.
  • Added an in-game screenshot to the README and as the package icon.

1.0.0

  • Initial release. Toggleable concentric distance rings around the player, hugging terrain height, with configurable spacing, max radius, segment count, refresh interval and highlight interval, plus a floating metre label on every ring.
