โจ Features
What is in it
- Arrows (and crossbow bolts) you shoot that hit the ground, a tree, a wall or a creature come back as arrows you pick up again. Arrows that hit the ground, a tree or a wall are all kept; of those that hit a creature, three in four are kept and drop with its loot when it dies. Fire arrows are always used up. All of it is in the settings.
- A quiver hangs on your back while you have arrows or bolts equipped, with the arrows you carry sticking out of it (more of them the more you carry), made from the real model of the arrow you have equipped.
- Where the quiver hangs (back, side, height, tilt) is in the settings, and changes at once.
It works on the game that shoots, so it does not need the other players to have it.

Known clashes
- BetterArchery: arrow pickup switches off while its retrievable arrows are on, and the quiver isn't drawn while its own quiver is on.

๐ฅ Multiplayer
Who needs it: Only the players who want it.
Only the player who shoots needs it: their game keeps track of arrows stuck in a creature, whoever's game runs it. The quiver is drawn only on your own character.
The host decides: arrow pickup and its chances, bolts, and whether fire arrows burn up. While you play on their world their values replace yours (your file isn't changed); a host without the mod leaves everyone their own.
โ๏ธ Settings
In BepInEx/config/com.quad.quiver.cfg, made the first time the game runs with the mod. r2modman and Thunderstore Mod Manager edit it under Config editor.

๐ Recent changes
- 0.2.2 A clearer page: what it does, who needs it in multiplayer, how it gets on with other mods, and where to report a bug. The game itself is unchanged.
- 0.2.1 A new id, com.quad.quiver (it was com.dhack.quiver): your settings move over by themselves the first time it starts, and the old settings file is kept as a backup. Restart the game after this update. If an old copy is still installed beside it, this one stands down and says which file to delete, so the two never both run. The DLL now says it was made with AI, as Thunderstore asks.
- The arrow settings (PickUpArrows, ChanceOnGround, ChanceOnCreature, IncludeBolts, FireArrowsBurnUp) are now decided by the server in multiplayer when it has the mod, so nobody gets every arrow back on a server that keeps fewer. With BetterArchery installed its own retrievable arrows and quiver (both on by default) take over: this mod's arrow recovery and quiver switch off, so you never get two arrows back for one or wear two quivers. Fix: an arrow picked up from the ground could count as equipped.
Every change is on the Changelog tab.
