About the Mod
I wanted my torches to turn on at night and off during the day. I also did not want to fuel them.
Configuration
The config file is located in "\Bepinex\config" (You need to start the game at least once, with the mod installed to create the config file).
To configure the timer:
- OnTime - Time of day when torches should turn ON. (The default is set to 4.30pm in-game time)
- OffTime - Time of day when torches should turn OFF. (The default is set to 6.30am in-game time)
- AlwaysOnInDarkBiomes - (Default True) If true, objects listed in AffectedFireplaceSources will always burn in areas that Valheim considers 'always dark'. E.g Mistlands or any biome during a storm.
- AllowAddingFuel - (Default False) If true, fuel can be added and sources will use the timer settings. If false no fuel is needed to burn torches
Note: If OnTime and OffTime is set to the same value, for example 0 and 0 the fireplaces listed in AffectedFireplaceSources will burn 24/7.
The config file is located in "\Bepinex\config" (You need to start the game with the mod installed for the config file to be created).

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:
