Ancient Bark Coal

Put spare Ancient Bark in the Charcoal Kiln and turn it into Coal.

• One Ancient Bark produces one Coal.
• Uses the kiln's existing processing speed and capacity.
• Normal wood conversions stay available.
• No configuration needed. Requires BepInEx 5; Jotunn is not required.

Install

Install through your Valheim mod manager, then launch the game modded.

For manual installation, install BepInEx 5 for Valheim, then copy BepInEx/plugins/AncientBarkCoal/AncientBarkCoal.dll from this package into the matching folder in your game or active mod-manager profile. Restart the game.

If you previously installed a test copy manually, remove that copy before installing this package through a mod manager. This package replaces the earlier listing named Valheim_AncientBarkCoal; uninstall that package before installing AncientBarkCoal to avoid loading the same plugin twice. Let any queued bark finish before changing installations.

Use

Put Ancient Bark on your hotbar and use it on a charcoal kiln's input. You can also use the normal kiln interaction; when carrying several accepted materials, the game may select another wood first.

Multiplayer

Install the same version on every client and the server/host. The mod does not enforce matching installations. A kiln owner without the recipe may reject bark after it has been removed from a player's inventory.

Local gameplay has been confirmed working by the tester. Dedicated-server operation and multiplayer ownership transfer have not been separately verified.

Compatibility

Applies to the vanilla charcoal kiln. A bark conversion already supplied by another mod is left unchanged. Mods that replace conversion lists later can override this recipe; renamed or custom kiln prefabs are not included.

Uninstall

Let all queued bark and pending output finish, save and exit, then remove the mod everywhere.
