Valheim

Valheim stuff.

The stuff in question will be compatible with Valheim 1.0, not older, possibly later.

Portal Finder

Script for finding all your portals in a world, also highlighting unlinked/inactive portals.

TL;DR:

bash <(wget -qO- https://valheim.nikoboi.dev/portal-finder/script.sh)

[!NOTE] Your world will need to be a local save, Valheim defaults to Cloud save. Fix it in “Manage saves” in the main menu.

Usage

Run script.py in the world save folder. They’re located here (on Linux):

~/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/worlds_local/

Just put the script in a world folder located there and cd to it and run it like this:

python3 script.py

Fully Automated Script

If you’re lazy like me you can use open a terminal and paste this and it’ll do everything for you.

bash <(wget -qO- https://valheim.nikoboi.dev/portal-finder/script.sh)

[!NOTE] valheim.nikoboi.dev resolves to this repository.

This script will find all your worlds and then prompt you if you have multiple, and then run the Python script remotely. It will leave no files behind and won’t modify anything.

Install

Script can be “installed” as an “app”. Basically put into /usr/local/bin/ to be runnable as a command. Install it using this:

bash <(wget -qO- https://valheim.nikoboi.dev/portal-finder/install.sh)

This will install script.sh and script.py as /usr/local/bin/valheim_portal_finder and /usr/local/bin/valheim_portal_finder.py, respectively.

Then use by just running:

valheim_portal_finder

Why?

Ever had a Graydwarf slowly chip away or a Troll destroy your portal? Don’t remember its tag? Then just save your world and run the script. It’ll find out which one it was instantly.
