Changelog

0.1.1 — Talent map redesign

• Replaced the wooden button grid with radial, connected talent maps on a dark surface.
• Added compact perk glyphs, rank pips, mastery diamonds, and distinct learned/available/locked states.
• Preserved skill choices, requirements, explicit purchases, respec and companion controls.
• Changed the default shortcut to F9; previous unmodified F7/F8 bindings migrate once. Custom shortcuts such as F6 remain unchanged.
• Kept the entry in the vanilla Skills menu.
• Restored UTF-8 transport/storage encoding after an unintended earlier text replacement.
• Preserved the existing plugin ID and character progression keys.

Changelog

0.1.0 — Testing preview

• First test build of VikingMastery.
• Adds 30 skill trees: Valheim's 24 vanilla skills plus Druid, Sailing, Exploration, Alchemy, Foraging and Animal Husbandry.
• Adds skill-point progression, prerequisites, exclusive masteries and sheltered paid respecs.
• Adds Druid restoration/grove/familiar systems and optional MagicPlugin Healing Staff attribution.
• Adds server-authoritative progression, purchase, respec, healing, familiar and companion synchronization source.

This release is intended for isolated testing. Gameplay balance, runtime compatibility, saves and multiplayer behavior require testing before a stable release.

Package revision

• Renamed the mod and interface to VikingMastery; default interface shortcut is F7.
• Standalone interface: VikingCodex is not required. Legacy progression/config identifiers retained.
