Valheim - Toggle Movement Mod (ToMoMo)
Works with Ashlands Update!
Have you ever played so much Valheim that you injured yourself? Well, I did. When Mistlands released, I bounded over the new and difficult terrain for so many hours mashing my Shift key that I experienced what I can only describe as "Valheim pinkie." Basically, I suffered an RSI that forced me to take a break. That's when I knew I needed to make this mod!

QOL Detail
Run toggle
No more holding that Run button for hours!
Mistlands requires sprint jumping to effectively scale the jagged terrain. Gorging on high-stamina foods is essentially a requirement, and you need to almost constantly hold your Run key/button in order to get around.
Stock Valheim still hasn't introduced a Run toggle setting, so this mod fixes that by turning your Run key/button into a toggle.
Seamless auto-run/sneak
This mod allows you to auto-sneak!
Sweating bullets trying to sneak back through the Prairie biome to recover your grave is a unique experience. As you creep forward toward the map marker, frantically attempting to spot nearby enemies, your stamina eventually depletes to zero. And just like that, your character pops out of stealth to attract the receiving end of a Deathsquito's sting. You ruefully hope your "no skill drain" effect lasts a lil longer, right?
And when you do manage to recover your belongings, you'll have more than ample motivation to maximize your corpse run ability and snap immediately into a full on auto-run.
Stock Valheim auto-run doesn't work while sneaking. If you're crouching and activate auto-run, you pop right up into a walk by default. Similarly auto-running and crouching into sneak will simply disable auto-run.
This mod fixes all that seamlessly, and installs stamina safeguards while auto-running/sneaking.
- The default stamina safeguard is 20%
- When auto-running, you will transition to a walk until stamina fully regenerates
- Stamina regen can be overridden if needed by holding your Run key/button or Forward key/button
- When auto-sneaking, you will simply stop while crouched until stamina fully regenerates
- Stamina regen can be overridden if needed by holding your directional input keys while crouching
Safeguard Stamina on Low Health
With sprint enabled, especially with manual directional input, your stamina can quickly dwindle to 0 without you noticing. Sometimes this is a really bad situation to be in!
That's especially true if your health is so low that you can't run away or fight back, and strafing to evade more blows is keeping your stamina from recharging. It's easy to forget that you've toggled on sprint when your character is plodding around. This is likely one of the reasons that the developers didn't include a toggle in the first place.
So v0.0.3 introduces a safety valve that toggles off Sprint if your health drops below a target threshold (30% by default).
Safeguard Stamina Regen on Zero Stamina
Growths will mess you up! Spraying their tarry liquid death-punches just before leaping through the air tests even the best equipped and fed Viking adventurer. It's typically right around them tarring you and bounding to cut off your path that you run out of stamina completely. You're then left mashing your forward key in terror as you attempt to down whatever mead you can to help you escape. It's easy in those moments to forget that your sprint is toggled on, and holding the forward key to keep moving will keep your stamina at zero... indefinitely.
So v0.0.7 introduces a configurable safety valve to detoggle sprint after an elapsed time (5 seconds by default) at zero stamina. This allows stamina to regenerate even if you are overriding stamina safeguards by holding down your Forward key/button.
Auto-run Sprint Enable/Switch Weapons
v0.0.3 introduced the ability to equip/switch weapons during auto-run while sprinting. Sometimes you know you're getting close to a battle, and want to arrive prepared. Stock Valheim won't let you equip/switch weapons while sprinting, but now you can!

Releases
Releases in github repo are packaged for Thunderstore Mod Manager.
- 1.4.3 Patch 0.221.10 fix. Remove vanilla Auto-run setting labels from Gameplay and Accessibility menus. Removes AddAutorunMenuLabels config option. Implementation was brittle and not necessary
- 1.4.2 Clean up debugging logging
- 1.4.1 Fix auto-sneak bug that got stuck at the stam regen threshold
- 1.4.0 Support The Bog Witch update. Add auto-attack feature. Optimize the main loop to prevent toggle lock in certain scenarios
- 1.3.0 Add auto-jump feature and many improvements and tweaks
- Add label to vanilla Auto-run setting in both Gameplay and Accessibility menus that concisely describes the hover text
- Add config that allows character movement to continue even after Esc key is pressed
- Add config that allows the mod sprint behavior to function like the vanilla auto-run, which detoggles when character comes to a halt or runs out of stamina
- Add logic that allows the mod play nicely with the vanilla Auto-run setting (and vice versa)
- Refactor config to reduce redundant/overlapping config setting. Removes OverrideGameAutorun, which can be achieved through combo of other config
- Fix bug that prevented mod config keymappings changes (changing from defaults of
T or CapsLock) from taking effect until the Reset Controls button was pressed in game settings
- Fix bugs that triggered character movement or behavior while in chat, inventory, and/or build/repair menus
- 1.2.0 Detoggle auto-run by default if at low stam when attacking, with configurable stam threshold
- Ashlands combat proves challenging with mod enabled without this config option, as stamina gets pinned to zero indefinitely while attacking hordes of mobs
- 1.1.0 Add config to only toggle sprinting when auto-running, and/or allow auto-running while in inventory
- 1.0.0 Major version release adds color-coded stamina bar
- Stamina bar will be orange when sprint toggled, else it will appear blue when regenerating, else it will be its normal yellow
- Stamina bar will repeatedly flash while empty if sprint toggled and regen is overridden by directional input
- Detoggling sprint while stamina is regenerating will cause stam regen to cancel as well. Stam regen otherwise reenables below the threshold as expected. This comes in handy while fighting without Rested buff, or with debuffs like Cold and Wet
- Fixes bug that caused stam regen loop when holding directional keys while regenerating at stam regen threshold. The bug caused the character to stutter step
- 0.1.4 Add config to override in-game auto-run toggle setting. This allows mod settings and behavior (like sneak to run) to work again
