OttoFuel

Updated for Valheim 1.0

OttoFuel keeps your production burning. It pulls fuel and ore out of nearby chests and off the ground, then feeds them to the things that need them.

Maintainer: Paul Otto

What it fuels

• Torches, standing torches, wall torches, braziers and campfires
• Hearths and hot tubs
• Smelters, blast furnaces, charcoal kilns, windmills and spinning wheels
• Stone ovens and any other cooking station that burns fuel (new in 1.5.0)
• Shield generators

Other features

• Stacked smelters. Removes most smoke and the "smoke blocked" check.
• The blast furnace accepts every ore.
• Kiln output limit, so a kiln stops once you have enough coal.
• Per-object switches, so you can turn any of it off.
• ServerSync. A server pushes its config down to the clients.

A config file BepInEx/config/potto007.OttoFuel.cfg is created after you run the game once with this mod.

Coming from AutomaticFuel? Your settings carry over. On first run OttoFuel looks for TastyChickenLegs.AutomaticFuel.cfg and copies its values into its own file. It never touches an OttoFuel config that already exists.

On a clean install OttoFuel writes a starter config with LeaveLastItem = true, so it never empties a chest to zero. Every other setting keeps its stock value.

Every setting lives in BepInEx/config/potto007.OttoFuel.cfg, and you can change it in a text editor or in game through Configuration Manager. Enabled and IsOn sit in the unnamed section at the top of the file, which BepInEx writes as [].

Installation: (manual)

Extract the DLL from the zip file into <GameDirectory>\BepInEx\plugins, then start the game.

Installation (Automatic)

Use the R2Modmanager on Thunderstore. Search for the mod and install

Server Configuration

For Servers that want to control ther configuration, install on the server and clients.  
The server config will push down.

For Servers that cannot use mods, simply install this on the clients only and it will work just fine.  Clients will all need
the same settings in their config files for optimal results.

Version Information

The full release history lives in CHANGELOG.md, and it renders on the Changelog tab of the Thunderstore package page.

Changelog

All notable changes to OttoFuel. Versions from v1.4.7 down are the history of AutomaticFuel by TastyChickenLegs, which OttoFuel continues.

v1.6.5

• Rebuilt against Valheim 1.0.16. Every Harmony patch target still resolves in this build, and nothing else changed.

v1.6.4

• Rebuilt against Valheim 1.0.15. Every Harmony patch target still resolves in this build, and nothing else changed.

v1.6.3

• Rebuilt against Valheim 1.0.14. Every Harmony patch target still resolves in this build, and nothing else changed.

v1.6.2

• Fixes ground pickup in multiplayer. When a player other than the piece owner dropped wood or ore next to a kiln, smelter, fireplace, oven, or generator, the piece destroyed only its local copy of the item. The item's data still belonged to the player who dropped it, so it respawned on the next sync and was taken again, giving unlimited fuel or ore from a single drop. Reported by Cookie4Free in GitHub issue #1. The mod now claims the dropped item before taking it, the same way the game does when you pick an item up. Chests were never affected.

v1.6.1

• Drops the Ottomation_ModLib and Jotunn dependencies that 1.6.0 added. OttoFuel needs only BepInEx again.
• Setting names go back to the 1.5.3 spelling, such as Lock Configuration and Turn Off Kiln, so a config from 1.5.3 or earlier, or one carried over from AutomaticFuel, loads with its values. If you ran 1.6.0, check your settings, because a value you changed under 1.6.0 is back at its default.
• Keeps the corrected README config table, now with the names above.

v1.6.0

• Depends on Ottomation_ModLib 1.16.0, which brings Jotunn with it. OttoFuel uses the library for its config handling, and keeps ServerSync for syncing settings, so LockConfiguration works as before.
• Config names follow the Ottomation series spelling. Lock Configuration is now LockConfiguration, Use Dropped Items for Fuel is now UseDroppedItemsForFuel, and the Turn Off switches lose their spaces, so Turn Off Kiln is now TurnOffKiln. IsOn and Enabled move out of an unnamed section into General, and the old 1 - General section merges into General.
• Your values carry over. On first load the library renames your config in place before OttoFuel reads it, and a config carried over from AutomaticFuel goes through the same rename.
• The README config table now lists the real setting names. The old table named settings like fireplaceRange that never matched the file, a verifyClient setting the mod does not have, and an autofuel reset console command that does not exist.
• The config file starts with an _Author section, the same as the rest of the Ottomation series.

v1.5.3

• Carries your AutomaticFuel settings over on first run. If a TastyChickenLegs.AutomaticFuel.cfg exists and no OttoFuel config does, OttoFuel copies its values. LeaveLastItem matters most: at stock the mod empties a chest to zero.
• Renames the old Use Dropped Items key to Use Dropped Items for Fuel while it copies, so that setting survives too.
• Writes a starter config on a clean install, with LeaveLastItem = true. Lock Configuration keeps its stock value of On, so a server still governs the settings of the clients that join it.
• Never overwrites an OttoFuel config that already exists. A failure here only logs a warning; the mod still loads.

v1.5.2

• Added CHANGELOG.md, rendered on the Thunderstore package page.
• Raised the BepInEx pack dependency to the current release.
• Reworked the package categories.
• Tidied the README.

• The config file is now potto007.OttoFuel.cfg. Settings do not carry over.

v1.4.9

• Ported to the Valheim 1.0 API:
  • Character.Message gained a log parameter.
  • Smelter.RPC_AddOre gained a cheated parameter.
  • Inventory.Changed gained two parameters.
  • Inventory.RemoveItem changed a default; the old behaviour is pinned.
  • ZRoutedRpc.Everybody became a constant, so ServerSync was rebuilt.
