About this mod Author’s original text
King QOL
Quality of life for stacks, chests, crafting, and looting. Network-safe helpers claim ZNetView ownership and sync container inventories so features work in multiplayer (clients and listen-server hosts).
Every feature has an on/off toggle and descriptive config text under [Features] and each feature section (BepInEx Configuration Manager or BepInEx/config/com.whtbros.kingqol.cfg). Hotkeys are rebindable: F7 chest search, F8 auto-stack, F9 sort inventory, F10 sort open chest, LeftAlt+E mark/unmark master chest.
Installation
Install BepInExPack for Valheim and Jotunn, then copy this mod into BepInEx/plugins.
Features
Turn features on or off under the [Features] config section. Other settings (radius, hotkey, multiplier, and so on) stay in each feature's own section.

Changelog
0.1.6
- Performance: shared world-object cache (~2s) for chests, machines, fireplaces, and ground drops — features no longer each FindObjects the scene on their own timers.
- MasterChests, AreaScan, FillFuel, PullOutput, AutoConsumer, AutoDeposit, and craft/build requirement checks use the cache.
- ChestHover caches hover text for the looked-at chest (rebuild on change / item count / ~0.35s TTL).
- MapNodes rebuilds when the large map opens (then every 5s while open); skips ZDO scans for hidden marker types.
- InstantLoot AutoPickupRange still applies at 10m, but AutoPickup runs at most every 0.25s instead of every frame.
- AutoDeposit ground scan interval 0.5s (was 0.35s), iterating the shared drop cache.
0.1.5
- Master chests: LeftAlt+E marks/unmarks; all loaded master chests are one shared pool for craft, build, repair, fuel, deposit, stack, harvest, and machine output (no nearby-radius fallback to unmarked chests).
- StackSize: WeightPercent config (1–100) scales item weight from vanilla.
- ChestSearch: large centered search window with mouse interaction and quantity controls (F7).
- InstantLoot: defaults match fast loot timing — DropDelay 0.01, DestroyDelay 0.05, AutoPickupDelay 0.01, AutoPickupRange 10.
- Config: every feature is documented in-game; hotkeys rebindable (F7 search, F8 stack, F9 sort inventory, F10 sort chest, LeftAl
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- 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.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- 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.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
