Smartpickup

SmartPickup

SmartPickup is a Valheim mod that adds three autopickup modes:

• Normal: standard autopickup, with an optional custom range
• Smart: picks up items already in your inventory, with an option to also collect undiscovered item types
• Off: disables autopickup

Compatibility

Version 1.0.11 targets Valheim 1.0 and includes bundled ServerSync support.

Features

• Uses Valheim's normal autopickup toggle flow
• Shows the current mode in-game
• Supports a configurable pickup range from 1 to 100
• Can apply the custom range in Normal mode as well as Smart
• Can collect item types your character has never discovered while in Smart mode

Installation

• Install denikson-BepInExPack_Valheim-5.4.2333 or newer.
• Install this mod Mod Manager, r2modman, or manually.
• Launch the game once to generate the config file.

Usage

Use Valheim's Auto-Pickup toggle to cycle through Normal, Smart, and Off.

Config

Config file:

BepInEx/config/com.b0n3.smartpickup.cfg

Main settings:

• DefaultMode
• PickupRange
• ApplyCustomRangeInNormalMode
• PickUpUndiscoveredItems (default: false)

Enable General.PickUpUndiscoveredItems to collect item types your character

has never discovered, even when you are not carrying any. This uses Valheim's

saved character discovery history. Previously discovered items you have dropped,

stored, or used up still require a matching item in your inventory. Once a new

item is collected, it follows the usual Smart mode inventory rule.

The setting applies immediately. Pickup range, inventory space, carry weight,

and other pickup restrictions still apply. Normal and Off modes are unaffected.

ServerSync

Install SmartPickup on both the server and clients to synchronize

PickupRange and ApplyCustomRangeInNormalMode. ServerSync is included in

SmartPickup.dll; no separate ServerSync download is needed.

Server.LockConfiguration defaults to true. While locked, only admins can

change synchronized settings. DefaultMode, PickUpUndiscoveredItems, and

switching between Normal, Smart, and Off remain local player preferences. Your local range settings

return when you disconnect. Settings also stay local when playing solo or

joining a server without SmartPickup.

Use the same SmartPickup version on server and clients. SmartPickup remains

optional: clients without it, including older versions without ServerSync,

can still connect. Synchronization does not enforce pickup behavior on those

clients. The minimum version for participating ServerSync clients is 1.0.9.
