v1.6.7 — a job for every dragon and every wolf

kanym
Races of Valheim developer

The Skadi's Drake and Moder fly differently, every Fenrir form has a role, and the Alfar drones carry wood to the kiln again. Players tested the drone fix; the Skadi and Fenrir changes were not tested in game, so please report what you find.

Heads-up: a few settings reset​

Some config keys were renamed, so any value you changed in them is back to its default. Everything in Skadi - Directed Flight now lives in Skadi - Dragon Forms, split into Drake and Moder keys. Full Form Speed Bonus is now Fenring And Cultist Speed Bonus, and Wolf Form Speed Bonus is split into Wolf Speed Bonus and Ulv Speed Bonus. The old entries stay in your .cfg but do nothing. Delete them by hand, or, if you never changed any setting, delete the whole .cfg and the game writes a fresh one. Don't delete the whole file if you customised anything else: everything goes back to default, keybinds included.

Skadi: scout and freighter​

The Drake turns fast, sprints at 26 m/s and flies for free, but will not take off while you are encumbered. The Moder turns slowly and pays 3 stamina a second to fly, but lifts a heavy pack at 25% extra cost and glides for 8 seconds. Each form, the Fader included, has its own duration and cooldown settings and its own cooldown timer. Thanks to Dissolution for the idea. See Skadi.

Fenrir: a job for each form​

The Ulv is the travel form at +100% speed; the Fenring and the Cultist drop to +50%. The Fenring takes 30% less damage and holds the line. The Cultist keeps its damage and takes 25% more. That 25% is a first guess: tell us if it feels too harsh or too soft. Thanks to Lexsonn for the idea. See Fenrir.

Drones and the kiln​

A delivery started with the clock of the trip before it, so a slow flight or a fight on the way left a drone frozen with its load until a respawn. Kiln wood was the usual victim; the Skeleton's, Sverm's and Skadi's servants had the same problem. A station a drone cannot reach is now set aside for a few minutes and the load goes back to its chest, and drones fly up beside a station instead of into it. Thanks to the players who tested the fix.
