Overview

SwimSpeed lets you adjust your Valheim swim speed on the fly with the Left and Right arrow keys, with full config file control over min/max range and step size. Includes Ludicrous Speed mode for when you really need to get somewhere fast.

Controls

| Key | Action |

|-----|--------|

| → Right Arrow | Increase swim speed |

| ← Left Arrow | Decrease swim speed |

A heads-up message in the top-left corner confirms every change.

Configuration

Config file: BepInEx/config/youdied.swimspeed.cfg

[Speed Range]

| Setting | Default | Range | Description |

|---------|---------|-------|-------------|

| MinimumMultiplier | 1.0 | 1.0 – 10.0 | Lowest speed the arrow keys can reach |

| MaximumMultiplier | 5.0 | 1.0 – 10.0 | Highest speed the arrow keys can reach |

| AdjustmentPercent | 20 | 1 – 100 | How much each key press changes speed (% of base) |

[Current Speed]

| Setting | Default | Description |

|---------|---------|-------------|

| CurrentMultiplier | 1.0 | Your current multiplier — saved automatically, or set directly |

[Ludicrous Speed]

| Setting | Default | Range | Description |

|---------|---------|-------|-------------|

| LudicrousEnabled | false | true/false | Whether Ludicrous Speed is active on load |

| LudicrousMultiplier | 10.0 | 2.0 – 20.0 | Bonus multiplier stacked on top of normal speed when active. Try 4–5 first! |

Tips

• Set MaximumMultiplier up to 10.0 for extreme speeds
• AdjustmentPercent = 10 gives finer control; 50 gives big jumps
• Ludicrous Speed stacks on top of your current multiplier — so 3x speed + Ludicrous x10 = 30x total. Start with LudicrousMultiplier = 4 or 5 if 10 is too chaotic
• Jumping out of water onto rocks and ladders works normally
