AutoFeedRedux by Vapok
AutoFeedRedux is a lightweight, high-performance take on automatic feeding for Valheim. It eliminates excessive container looping and world tracking overhead by letting tameable creatures smartly locate and feed from nearby player-built containers when hungry.
Features
- 🚶 Direct-to-Container Navigation: When hungry, tameable animals navigate directly to the nearest container containing compatible food.
- 📦 Clean Inventory Consumption: Food is consumed straight from the container inventory once the animal arrives—no dropped items littering the ground.
- 🛡️ Container Protection: Protects feed chests and troughs from being damaged or destroyed by creatures during the taming process.
- ⚡ Optimized Performance: Highly efficient spatial queries that avoid scanning every container across the entire world.
- 🌐 Server-Synced Configuration: Fully integrated with Jotunn configuration syncing to enforce server-side settings on multiplayer servers.
Configuration Settings
All settings can be customized in-game or via the BepInEx configuration file (vapok.mods.AutoFeedRedux.cfg).
