WebMap

Valheim WebMap

A server-side mod that publishes a live web map of your world. Share

and anyone can watch — clients need no mods. Dedicated

server only.

A fork of [h0tw1r3/valheim-webmap] rebuilt for Valheim 1.0 (Deep North).

Features

• Explorable map in the browser — wheel zoom, pinch on mobile.
• Shared fog of war: only what players have actually explored.
• Live player positions, and who is online.
• Structures — placed pieces drawn in the colour of their material, so bases read as

bases. Keyed off the piece's creator, so terrain and world-generated ruins never appear.

The sweep behind it runs only while someone is looking at the map.

• Forest and logging — standing trees shade the terrain and felled ground stops being

shaded, so clearings show through. Stumps are counted as the record of felling.

• Boats and carts, in explored territory only.
• Portals, graves and traders, linked portals joined by a line; up close, builds turn

into a floor plan of every placed piece.

• The land named -- landmasses, ranges and peaks, lakes, bays, rivers -- and trails

where people walk, and where they died.

• World render at the resolution you choose — render_size 4096 halves the metres

per pixel, and rendering no longer stalls the server.

• The world in 3D. Drop the little figure on any walked spot, as in Street View, and

you stand there at eye height: the ground as the game shapes it, terraforming included,

water, and every building, tree and rock drawn with the game's own model, under a sky

lit by the server's clock, and the players online standing there as themselves, in what

they wear. Look around, walk, or switch to an overview.

• A cinematic tour of the world's places, on the map and in 3D, for a screen left open.
• Pages of their own for the world's records and bosses, a portal atlas, a planning

board, and each player's tallies and class.

• Server announcements on every player's screen, for restart warnings and the like.
• Chat, deaths and joins in the message log; the server going up and down, joins and

leaves to a Discord webhook; with a bot of your own, an audit log and chat relayed both

ways (Discord).

• Sign in with Discord: members of your Discord server name places and pin the map

from the browser, and its admins change the settings there. No bot or Discord app needed.

Install

• With [BepInEx] working, put the WebMap directory in

Valheim dedicated server/BepInEx/plugins/WebMap.

• Start the server once to write a default config.
• Stop the server before editing that config — BepInEx rewrites it on shutdown, so

edits made while it runs are discarded.

• Open the configured port (default 3000) and visit

After updating, hard-reload the page (shift+reload) to clear cached layers.

Using the map

The viewer at is five pages — the live map (with the world in 3D

as a mode of it, and a cinematic tour through both), the world's own page (its records, its lands, its bosses), a portal atlas drawn on a biome chart (a hub opens close up: the base's

floor plan with each gate where it stands, and going through a gate lands you at its far

side with the gate you arrive at lit), a planning board for drawing and sharing routes,

and per-player tallies, from deaths and deeds to what each has cooked, brewed and smelted,

with a class read from their gear, their food and their deeds

(a player's own page draws them as the 3D view does, turning slowly:

live while they are online, as last seen once they have gone) —

with a legend that switches each layer and a Layers card, as on Google Maps, holding

presets of the legend and the choice of ground: the render, or the flat biome atlas.

The sidebar folds away with the ☰ in the bar, on phones it is a drawer, and the choice

holds across pages. Its source is WebMap/web: site.css is the style system every

page draws from, map-core.js the rendering core, js/card.js a player as the roster

reads them (for the players page and the tou
