Requirements

Need	Notes
Valheim (Windows)	Steam install
BepInExPack Valheim	BepInEx 5, Doorstop
.NET SDK 6+	Only if you build from source

Quick start (Windows)

1. Install BepInEx into your Valheim folder.

2. Copy Environment.props.example → Environment.props and set:

   <VALHEIM_INSTALL>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim</VALHEIM_INSTALL>

3. Double-click Launch-Valheim.bat — builds, deploys to BepInEx\plugins\TeflonTed.*, starts the game.

Launch-Valheim.bat -SkipBuild

skips the build when you only want to play.

Manual build

dotnet restore TeflonTed.Valheim.sln
dotnet build TeflonTed.Valheim.sln -c Release

Each plugin lands in VALHEIM_INSTALL\BepInEx\plugins\TeflonTed.<ModName>\. Chest/fuel mods also get TeflonTed.Common.dll in that folder.

Drop-in install (no SDK)

Copy each TeflonTed.*.dll (and TeflonTed.Common.dll next to any chest/fuel mod) into BepInEx\plugins\.

Design rules

• One job per mod
• Hardcoded radii / behavior (no kitchen-sink config)
• Branding: display name Teflon Ted's …, GUID com.teflonted.valheim.<mod>
• Client-side QoL for single-player / trusted friends

Notes

• Game updates can rename Harmony targets — rebuild against the current assembly_valheim.dll if something stops loading.
• BepInEx.AssemblyPublicizer.MSBuild publicizes game assemblies at compile time; no manual publicizer step.
