SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Ensures HP/health bonuses are applied by updating the core m_baseHP, preventing heal flicker and ensuring consistent healing math within Valheim's health system.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enforces inclusion of m_baseHP for all health bonuses and supports SetMaxHealth patching.
  • Provides clear guidance for health, healing, and max health integration, including MMO Body parameter usage for compatible configurations.
  • Works as a standalone rule-set, usable directly by skill implementations or in conjunction with other health-related mods.

Quick Start

Apply health bonuses by increasing m_baseHP (or patching SetMaxHealth) to ensure healing works and to align with MMO Body integration.

Frequently Asked Questions about cst-health

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
Why does my Valheim health bonus cause heal flicker and inconsistent healing?▼

Health bonuses cause heal flicker when they bypass the core m_baseHP field. You must enforce m_baseHP updates for all HP bonuses to ensure consistent healing math and prevent visual glitches.

How do I apply max health bonuses in Valheim without breaking healing mechanics?▼

Apply max health bonuses by increasing m_baseHP or patching SetMaxHealth directly. This ensures the Valheim health system recognizes the new maximum and maintains correct healing calculations.

Does Valheim health modification need m_baseHP for MMO-style integration?▼

Yes, MMO-style integration requires m_baseHP updates to align with getParameter Parameter.Body. This coherence ensures health bonuses and healing function correctly across multiplayer configurations.

Can I use SetMaxHealth patching for standalone Valheim health mods?▼

Yes, SetMaxHealth patching works for standalone health mods. It serves as an alternative to directly modifying m_baseHP, ensuring healing logic remains stable when applying max health adjustments.

What is the best way to implement custom healing logic in Valheim?▼

The best way to implement custom healing is to route all health bonuses through m_baseHP updates. This aligns with the core health system, preventing heal flicker and ensuring numerical stability.

When should I not use direct field modification for Valheim HP adjustments?▼

Avoid direct field modification if it bypasses m_baseHP, as this causes heal flicker. Use SetMaxHealth patching or enforce m_baseHP inclusion to maintain consistent healing behavior.
