EasyLiving 3.0 — Native UI & World Profiles

By Patocino · Thunderstore package: Patocino/EasyLiving

EasyLiving is a quality-of-life mod for Valheim built around choice. Its 17 gameplay features are individually configurable, so you can keep the systems you want while preserving familiar vanilla behavior everywhere else.

Fully Modular

EasyLiving is fully modular. Every feature can be individually enabled or disabled, allowing players to use only the systems they want and reduce overlap with other mods.

If another mod provides a similar feature, disable only the overlapping EasyLiving module. You do not need to disable EasyLiving as a whole; unrelated modules can remain enabled normally.

What's New in 3.0

• Native EasyLiving UI integrated into Valheim's World Modifiers screen, using native visual components.
• World Profiles that store a separate EasyLiving gameplay configuration for each world.
• Native Keybind Settings at Settings → Keyboard & Mouse → EasyLiving, with remapping, conflict confirmation and reset.
• Russian localization for EasyLiving text, alongside English and Portuguese (Brazil).
• Craft From Chests + Hammer fix: building requirements, nearby-chest resources, consumption and the Hammer requirement HUD now agree.
• Safe Stack Size normalization: reducing the setting redistributes excess into valid stacks and free slots, then drops only what cannot fit.

World Profiles

EasyLiving stores gameplay settings by world UID at:

BepInEx/config/EasyLiving/WorldProfiles/<UID>.json

• A world with a profile uses that profile.
• A newly created world receives the official EasyLiving defaults.
• A legacy world without a profile uses the existing Ignis.EasyLiving.cfg values as its fallback.

Profiles contain the 17 gameplay settings. Personal keybinds remain local and are not stored in world profiles.

Keybinds

Open Settings → Keyboard & Mouse → EasyLiving to configure:

• Quick Deposit — J
• Vein Mining — H
• Auto Repair — P

The page supports remapping, duplicate-key confirmation and Reset Controls. Choosing Yes accepts a duplicate; No or Esc restores the previous binding.

Languages

EasyLiving supports:

• English
• Portuguese (Brazil)
• Russian

Any other Valheim language uses English as the fallback. Item and station names continue to use Valheim's own localization.

Multiplayer

Gameplay settings are host/server authoritative. Clients use the host's effective session configuration. Personal keybinds remain local.

Compatibility

Nearby-storage features use eligible nearby containers in the effective area of a normal Workbench. They respect access, Ward and ownership conditions.

If another installed mod changes the same mechanic, disable only the equivalent EasyLiving module to avoid duplicate behavior or conflicting patches.

Requirements

• Valheim 1.0.12
• BepInExPack Valheim 5.4.2350
• Jotunn 2.30.0

Installation

1. Install BepInExPack Valheim and Jotunn.
2. Install with a Thunderstore-compatible manager, or extract this archive into the Valheim game folder.
3. Confirm the DLL is at BepInEx/plugins/EasyLiving/EasyLiving.dll.
4. Start Valheim and configure EasyLiving through World Modifiers or BepInEx/config/Ignis.EasyLiving.cfg.

Restart the session after changing gameplay settings. The technical GUID and configuration filename remain Ignis.EasyLiving for compatibility.
