ToxozQoL

ToxozQoL

A bundle of small quality-of-life improvements for Valheim, all in one mod.

If you have any of my other mods installed (CraftFromChests,

KeepInventoryOnDeath, StackIncrease), remove them - this single mod

replaces all three and patches the same game methods, so keeping both

installed causes conflicts (e.g. double resource consumption).

Features

Craft, build & smelt from nearby chests

Materials sitting in nearby chests count as if they were in your own

inventory at crafting stations and in hammer/placement mode. The requirement

UI shows the real total as "needed/total", e.g. 8/200, instead of flashing

red. Only chests you have access to are used. Search range is configurable

(default 40 meters).

Pressing E on a smelter, kiln or blast furnace adds up to 5 ore/wood/fuel at

once instead of 1, taking from your inventory first and then from nearby

chests if you're short. Hold Shift while pressing E to add exactly 1. It never

adds more than fits.

Keep Inventory On Death

Keep your inventory and equipped gear when you die. No tombstone, no naked

respawn, no re-equipping.

Stack Increase

Increases the max stack size and reduces the weight of stackable items (wood,

stone, ore, arrows, food, etc.), both by a configurable amount (default x10

stack size, 20% weight). Equipment is untouched.

Fires Never Need Fuel

Campfires, bonfires, hearths and torches (standing and wall-mounted) never run

out of fuel and never go out on their own. You still need to light them the

first time.

Smarter Place Stacks

The "Place stacks" button and holding E on an open chest now search every

chest within range - if an item already exists in a different nearby chest

instead of the one you opened, it goes there instead.

No Food Decay

Health/stamina/eitr from food stays at its full value for the entire duration

instead of gradually tapering off as the timer runs low. Still disappears

normally once the food actually runs out.

Auto-Repair

Opening a crafting station that can repair (workbench, forge, etc.) instantly

repairs all your equipped gear, instead of clicking the Repair button once

per item.

Smelters/Kilns Output Straight To Chests

A finished bar or coal won't drop on the ground if there's a chest with room

within 6 meters - it goes straight in instead.

Comfort Level In Build Menu

Pieces that give comfort (chairs, benches, banners, etc.) show their comfort

level at the bottom of the description text in the build menu's info panel.

Longer Range For Station Upgrades

Chopping blocks, tanning racks, anvils, bellows and other pieces that upgrade

a crafting station (workbench, forge, etc.) now count from up to 20 meters

away instead of vanilla's usual ~5 meters. Configurable, and only ever raises

the distance, never lowers it.

Crossbow/grappling hook stay loaded

Switching weapons or holstering a loaded crossbow or grappling hook no longer

makes you redraw it - it's still loaded next time you bring it out, no matter

how many other weapons you switch to in between. Only firing it clears the

loaded state. The mark is saved on the weapon itself, so it survives a

save/reload too.

Double-size explored map area

The area revealed on the map as you explore is doubled. Since the revealed

area is circular, the reveal distance itself only increases by about 41%

(not 100%) - that's what actually doubles the area.

Double comfort range

Comfort-giving pieces (chairs, benches, banners, etc.) count from 20 meters

away instead of vanilla's 10 meters.
