Loyal Spears
Spears that are loyal — they return to you after being thrown and prevent other players from auto-picking them up.
This is a Valheim 1.0+ port of the original Loyal Spears by Goldenrevolver, upgraded to use Jotunn's built-in config sync instead of ServerSync.
Features
- Auto-Return: Thrown spears automatically return to their owner after landing, or after traveling too far.
- Owner-Only Pickup: Prevent other players from auto-picking up your thrown spears.
- Weight Reservation: Throws reserve a portion of your carrying capacity so you don't accidentally overburden yourself picking up loot before retrieving your spear.
- Portal Safety: Spear tracking components are cleaned up when teleporting through portals, preventing spears from getting stuck across dimensions.
