This mod requires the following mods to function
denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim
BepInEx pack for Valheim. Preconfigured and includes unstripped Unity DLLs.
Preferred version: 5.4.2202README
MonsterFallDamage
Monsters — and optionally the player — now take fall damage with a fully configurable formula.
By default the settings match Valheim's vanilla player values, but you can freely tune or remove the damage cap.
Features
- All monsters take fall damage on landing
- Player fall damage now uses the same configurable formula (toggle via
Apply To Player) - Same formula as vanilla player by default
- Dead monsters are safely ignored
- Multiplayer-safe (only the network owner calculates damage)
- Compatible with BepInEx Configuration Manager for in-game adjustments
Configuration
Located at: BepInEx/config/com.mods.monsterfallDamage.cfg
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Apply To Player | true | Apply this formula to the player as well (overrides Valheim default) |
| Min Fall Height (m) | 4 | Falls below this height deal no damage |
| Damage Interval (m) | 16 | Damage added for every X meters fallen above the minimum |
| Damage Per Interval | 100 | Damage dealt per interval |
| Max Damage (0 for unlimited) | 100 | Cap on fall damage. 0 means no limit |
Default formula (same as player):
damage = (fallHeight - 4) / 16 × 100, capped at 100
Example — harsher setting (100 dmg per 6.5m, no cap):
Min Fall Height: 4 / Damage Interval: 6.5 / Damage Per Interval: 100 / Max Damage: 0

1.0.4
- Bug Fix: The plugin was completely non-functional since release. The config key
Max Damage (0 = unlimited)contained an illegal character (=), which caused BepInEx to throw anArgumentExceptionon startup and abort plugin initialization. As a result, no fall damage was ever applied to monsters. Fixed by renaming the key toMax Damage (0 for unlimited).
