About this mod Author’s original text

Ranensol's Villagers

A BepInEx mod for ASKA that automatically assigns summoned villagers to a house, and allows all villagers to be made homeless or assigned a house based on skill tier and house quality with a single keypress.

Features

  • Auto-assigns new villagers to a bed, the worst one available
  • Tier-based priority - Tier 4 villagers get the best houses first
  • Smart scoring - Uses actual game happiness (Comfort + Area Desirability)
  • Hotkeys - F8 to manually assign all homeless, F9 to make everyone homeless for re-sorting
  • HUD widget - Shows available beds in top-right corner

Installation

  • Install BepInEx 6 (IL2CPP)
  • Extract mod DLL to BepInEx/plugins/
  • Launch game to generate config
  • Edit BepInEx/config/Ranensol.BepInEx.Aska.Villagers.cfg
  • Restart game

The server needs the mod for auto-assigning, the client needs the mod for manual/key press assigning/unassigning.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
