Hello, It's possible to keep pins after destroying a ore ? Currently the pin disappears when the ore is destroyed. I would like to be able to keep the location of the ore after destruction.
@T3kla: Yes, I know all berries, mushrooms (except yellow maybe? I don't think anything in crypts ever respawn), thistle, carrots, and turnips always respawn in same location. Some of the old map icon mods that aren't being updated anymore had autopins for those. I think dandelions, small stones, and twigs are the only pickables that have fully random spawns. Don't know much about plains biome stuff since I haven't really gotten that far yet.
yellow mushroom and even small stones and twigs have pre determined spawn places, my first house was right on a twig spawning place, and every once in a while it poped up through the floor, come to think of it I dont think anything in this game spawns randomly, even enemies have determined spawn areas
I figured out a way to remove those pesky items that repeatedly spawn through the floor. Plant Everything. This mod allows you to destroy the spawner.... so you'd use your middle mouse button (the same way you use the hammer to destroy something) and remove it. It will not spawn again.
Would it be possible to pin stuff without explicit interaction? Eg either when you get onscreen description like "COPPER" or "ENTER" (for dungeons), or when you are very close like few meters away. One of old mods did it based on (configurable) distance and was awesome as I didn't have to stop running to get stuff pinned to map. Specially stuff like tin, if I stop to hit it, I can just as well hit it once more and be done with it. And often enough I do NOT want to enter dungeon right away just to map it.
If you are interested, this was mod I used before H&H broke it: https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/182 His git repo: https://github.com/purpledxd/Valheim-Plugins/tree/master/LocatorPlugin
And thanks for current mod :)
P.s. oh and also to mention, I found out if you hit ore with eg arrow it will also trigger pin, in case someone doesn't carry pickaxe always :)
I just came back after a few months off, but previously I used "AutoMapPins with Configuration": https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/744 in combination with (what I believe is) this mod's predecessor "Remove Death Pins": https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/742 The former seems to be updated for H&H but i've yet to retest it or establish if it's (still) compatible with this
It is possible, I didn't do it because direct interaction is way more performant. But yeah, maybe I add a way to do it by distance alone in the future.
Heya, I'm just wondering if by chance this is compatible with the cartography table so that when you transfer your map/pins to the table and other people read it will the colored pins transfer over to them as well?
If you use the cartography table with this mod, and other users don't have the mod, what happens? Does it save nothing to the table? Does it save pins but with no colours? Or does it save incompatible data that will cause problems for others? For example, AutoMapPins With Configuration saves incompatible data that causes problems for players without the mod.
Color is locally applied and I'm using vanilla functions and data to add and remove pins, so I guess it shouldn't interfere much with other pin mods or vanilla functionality. If you try tell me how it goes!
Thanks so much for making this. I was looking for a way to recolorize the pins without having to dig through a mountain of options and this does the trick!

Maybe with a configuration option like :
## Disables Remove Pin.
# Setting type: Boolean
# Default value: true
Enable = true
