Assembly	`ValheimConsoleCapture.dll`

Features

Writes F5 console lines to BepInEx/ValheimConsole.log inside the active BepInEx folder. With Gale or r2modman, that is the profile folder, not the Steam game folder.
Keeps a rolling in-memory buffer (default 1000 lines) for copy and dump.
Starts a new session block in the log each time the console wakes up.
Client-only. Nothing is uploaded or sent to other players.

Commands

Command	What it does
`copyconsole`	Copy the buffer to the clipboard. `copyconsole 50` copies the last 50 lines.
`dumpconsole`	Write the buffer to `BepInEx/ConsoleCaptures`. `dumpconsole 100` writes the last 100 lines.
`dumpcommand pos`	Run one console command and write only its output.
`dumpcommand "pos; seed"`	Run each command in order into the same file.
`clearconsolebuffer`	Clear the in-memory buffer. Does not clear the F5 console or delete the log.
`consolecapture`	Show status. `consolecapture on` and `consolecapture off` toggle capture until the next launch.

Quotes are only needed when chaining. A semicolon outside the quotes is still a separate console command.

Dump files are named console-<commands>-yyyy-MM-dd-HHmmss.txt. The "Dumped N lines" acknowledgement is shown in the console and is not part of the file. Clipboard text and dump files are not timestamped.

Configuration

[General] Enabled
[File] LogToFile, LogPath, AppendMode, TimestampLines, FlushImmediately
[Buffer] BufferedLines (1–100000)
[Clipboard] EnableClipboard
[Filtering] CaptureCommands, CaptureOutput, StripRichText, CaptureAutocomplete

LogPath defaults to BepInEx/ValheimConsole.log. A BepInEx/... path stays inside the active BepInEx folder. Any other relative path starts at the game folder.
