About this mod Author’s original text

GetYourOwnPortal

A mod that provides player ownership of portals.

This allows players to use any name of portal they wish without conflicting

with others in a multiplayer context.

With GetYourOwnPortal, no longer will empty or generic portal names plague players on multiplayer servers!

Ownership

  • When placing a portal with your hammer, you will obtain ownership of the newly built portal
  • To disown a portal, use the LAlt+E key combination while hovering over it
  • Once a portal is disowned, it cannot be given ownership again; it must be broken down and remade by the intentional owner

Renaming

Any player may rename a portal, but it will retain its ownership. This remains an option

to allow players to assist another with portal renaming.

Destroying

If a portal has an owner, only that owner and server admins will be able to destroy the portal with their hammer.

Connecting With Other Players

To connect a portal with another player, both players must disown the connecting portals.

Example of connecting a portal between two players:

  • Player A creates a portal and names it AtoB
  • Player A disowns the AtoB portal
  • Player B creates a portal and names it AtoB
  • Player B disowns the AtoB portal
  • The two disowned AtoB portals connect

Donations

I spend most of my time these days playing and modding Valheim. Any donations are greatly appreciated and can be given through my Buy Me A Coffee page.

Thanks to all of those who support my work! This kind of support gives me more ability to work on mods with my time:)

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
