ShipPins

ValheimPlus shows your boats and carts on the map, but only the four vanilla ones. ShipPins shows all of them.

V+'s displayCartsAndBoats option pins the vanilla Cart, Raft, Karve and Longship. Ships and carts added by other mods, such as the OdinShip boats or the LoxWagon wagons, never get a pin. ShipPins takes over that V+ routine and runs it for every ship and cart in the game.

What it does

• Pins every object built on the game's own ship or cart, vanilla and modded. There is no list to maintain, so new ship and cart mods are picked up automatically.
• Uses V+'s own pin code, so the pins look and behave exactly like V+'s. Each pin is the ship's build icon at double size, it updates every 5 seconds, it hides for the ship you are steering, and it is never saved to your map.
• Also pins vanilla objects V+ misses: the Ashlands Drakkar, and the Catapult and Battering Ram, which are built on the game's cart.
• Modded ships and carts are labeled with their in-game name. The vanilla four keep V+'s labels.
• Client side only. It is not needed on the server.

Requirements

• ValheimPlus (Grantapher fork) with [Map] displayCartsAndBoats = true in its config.
• BepInExPack Valheim.

Config

The file is BepInEx/config/onononoki.ShipPins.cfg.

Compatibility

• Works with mods that build their ships and carts on the game's own ship and cart, which is the usual way. Checked against the code of OdinShip and LoxWagon.
• If a V+ update changes its pin code, ShipPins logs a warning and steps aside, and V+ keeps showing its own pins.
• Safe to add or remove at any time. Nothing is saved to the world or character.

How it works

A Harmony prefix on V+'s Minimap.UpdateMap postfix runs the same steps through V+'s own CheckPin, icon list and pin list, for every prefab that has a Ship or Vagon component.

Changelog

1.1.0

• Works on its own now, ValheimPlus is no longer needed. With V+ installed, ShipPins replaces V+'s own boat and cart pins, so each ship has one pin.
• Client-side only: the pins show whatever the server's V+ map setting says.
• Pins of destroyed ships no longer stay stranded on the map when the game reuses their object record.
• Pins show up as soon as the map loads.
• New setting UpdateSeconds (default 2): how often the pins follow the ships and carts.
• Pins are 1.5 times the normal pin size, with the name below the icon instead of over it. New setting IconSize (1 to 2, V+'s pins are 2).
• Thanks to aasmall for the client-side mode and both pin fixes, first made in aasmall's fork.

1.0.0
