Features

• Change how long ordinary pings remain visible before expiring.
• Freeze your own current ping so it does not expire.
• Share your frozen ping with other players who also have the mod installed.
• Automatically clear your previous shared frozen ping when you create a new ping.
• Clear your own frozen ping locally and from other modded players' screens.
• Clear all visible pings locally while also removing your own shared frozen ping from other modded players' screens.
• Optionally disable receiving frozen pings from other players.
• Configure freeze and clear hotkeys.
• Configure the color of frozen pings.

This fork targets pings only. Shout freezing and clearing are not included.

Installation

This mod requires BepInExPack Valheim.

Install using Gale or another compatible mod manager.

For manual installation, place:

Uhnmeyker_PingsTweaks.dll

inside:

Valheim/BepInEx/plugins/Uhnmeyker_PingsTweaks/

Multiplayer

Players who want to send or receive synchronized frozen pings must have Uhnmeyker's PingsTweaks installed.

Each player controls only their own shared frozen ping.

When you freeze your current ping:

• It remains frozen on your own client.
• Other modded players with receiving enabled also see it as frozen.

When you create a new normal ping:

• Your previous shared frozen ping is cleared for participating modded players.
• The new ping behaves normally until you choose to freeze it.

When you clear your own frozen ping:

• It is cleared locally.
• Other participating modded players are also told to clear your shared frozen ping.

When you use Clear All:

• All visible pings are cleared from your own screen.
• Your currently shared frozen ping is cleared from other participating modded players' screens.
• Other players' own frozen pings remain on their screens.

Other players cannot freeze your ping for you, and you cannot freeze theirs.

Default Controls

• "Y" - Freeze Own Ping
• "U" - Clear Own Ping
• "I" - Clear All Pings

All hotkeys can be changed in the BepInEx configuration.

Default Settings

• Vanilla ping duration is 15 seconds; this mod defaults to 30 seconds.
• You will see other players' frozen pings by default.
• Frozen ping color is Yellow (#FFFF00C6).

Configuration

The configuration file is created the first time Valheim is launched with the mod installed.

Configuration options include:

• Enable or disable the mod.
• Enable or disable debug logging.
• Change ordinary ping duration.
• Enable or disable receiving frozen pings from other players.
• Change freeze and clear hotkeys.
• Change the color of frozen pings.

Notes

• This mod is client-side.
• A dedicated server does not need the mod installed.
• Shared frozen pings only synchronize between players who have the mod installed.
• Turning off receiving prevents other players' frozen pings from being persisted on your client.
