This mod adds a 11 new custom locations to the Plains biome. All locations were made using vanilla build pieces and designed to fit Valheim lore. Part of the More World Locations series, see below for more details.
Command: locations_add MWL_FulingRock1, MWL_FulingTemple1, MWL_FulingTemple2, MWL_FulingTemple3, MWL_FulingTower1, MWL_FulingVillage1, MWL_FulingVillage2, MWL_FulingWall1, MWL_GoblinFort1, MWL_PlainsPillar1, MWL_GoblinCave1 start
The creatures and loot are all customizable. Modded creatures and items are supported. To customize, create a new YAML file in the BepinEx configuration folder. If using mod manager, then use the BepinEx config folder in your profile folder. All mods from the More World Locations series will share the same Yaml file so you only need to create it once.
For creatures, each instance of the location will randomly select from the list of creatures in the the file. First, it will pick a random index (an item in the list), then it will increment through the list, assigning creatures to available creature spawners until each creature spawner has a creature. For the best results, scatter higher tier creatures throughout the list. You must use the creature's prefab name and not it's in-game name. See here for a list of vanilla creature prefab names: Creatures List
For loot, the chests will randomly select items from the list.

For loot, as of 12/19/24 the loot list format has changed. If you're using an old format it will still work but you can't access the new customization feature. To access new customization feature, please convert to the new format below and ensure you include the verision number at top of file.
The new format works as such: 1 - Random roll for total loot slots available. Roll number between 1 - 3. There will be between 1 - 3 loot slots. 2 - For each loot slot, weighted-random selection for item from loot list. Randomly select item from list based on weights. 3 - For each item, random roll between stackMin and stackMax for loot stack amount.
Example for PlainsLoot1 below: 1 - Random roll results in 2 loot slots 2 - Weighted-random selection for slot 1 = BlackMetalScrap 3 - Weighted-random selection for slot 2 = LinenThread 4 - Random roll for slot 1 stack size = 4 5 - Random roll for slot 2 stack size = 5 6 - Final loot in chest = 4 BlackMetalScrap, 5 LinenThread
Modded items are confirmed to work in the loot list.

The goal of the More World Locations series is to solve Valheims exploration problem. Valheim has a giant map but relatively few points of interest (POI) to find. Once a player learns that each biome is just a copy of what they've already seen, exploring the rest of the map feels unnecessary. The More World Locations series will fix this problem by adding dozens of handcrafted, unique, and interesting POIs to the Valheim world.I started developing the series in Febuary 2024 and have released the following mods in the series. See my mod author page for most up to date list.
I greatly appreciate all the other mod developers that helped me while buidling the More World Locations series! If you're someone that's interested in making mods, I encourage you to try it out!
All the locations used in this mod were created by Valheim community members. If you're a Valheim builder and have some cool locations to share for a future More World Locations mod, please reach out on Discord!
