Easy Relocate

Relocate placed items in Valheim without breaking them down and rebuilding.

Works on interactable pieces like chests, workbenches, torches, beds, beehives, and other furniture. Look at a piece, press U, move it where you want, and confirm.

How to use

1. Look at a placed piece you can interact with.
2. Press U to pick it up.
3. Aim at the new spot — a ghost preview shows where it will go.
4. Scroll the mouse wheel to rotate.
5. Left-click to confirm.
6. Right-click or U to cancel.

Requirements

• Valheim (PC)
• BepInEx Pack Valheim

Installation

r2modman / Thunderstore (recommended)

1. Install r2modman.
2. Create or open a Valheim profile.
3. Install BepInEx Pack Valheim.
4. Search for Easy Relocate and click Install with Mod Manager.
5. Launch Valheim through r2modman.

If you still have the old Press U To Relocate package, update it to 1.0.3 — it will pull in Easy Relocate automatically.

Manual (BepInEx)

1. Install BepInEx Pack Valheim and launch the game once.
2. Put EasyRelocate.dll in:

   <Valheim folder>\BepInEx\plugins\EasyRelocate\
   

3. Launch the game.

If you downloaded a zip, extract it so the .dll is inside that EasyRelocate folder.

Multiplayer

All players need this mod installed for relocates to show up correctly for everyone.

Settings

After your first run, open:

BepInEx\config\ModdedWolf.EasyRelocate.cfg

If you used the old mod, settings from dev.modded.pressutorelocate.cfg are copied here automatically on first launch.

Useful options:

• GrabKey — default U
• MaxGrabDistance — how far you can grab a piece
• MaxPlaceDistance — how far you can place the ghost
• RespectWards / RequireBuildAccess — ward and build permission checks

Restart the game or reload the config after changing values.
