Comfort/Cosiness range

[Nachi]

Me and my friend love building things, but this thing shorten our range to make things look good and not get rewarded for it, the range of the campfire with the comfort thing is very short, but eh, i guess there is a ton of problems rn in valheilm anyway to be that much of a issue.

TLDR: Make the range a bit bigger, even a small house everything need to be next to the campfire, it's crazy

I agree, the range should be about doubled not only for this but for forge/bench upgrade items and kitchen items. Its difficult to decorate with the short ranges...
that said, its a pure radius. My current home has some of the items above and below -- my fire is my kitchen hearth** which is right above my bedroom, and in range, while my table and chair are below the bedroom in the workshop, and also in range. There is just one sweet spot where I get all the bonus and I put my throne there.

** without cheating, it takes some doing with ironwood beams to loft a hearth like that. Its worth it, as you can put it on top and avoid a chimney running all through the home, but be prepared to tie yourself in a knot to get it placed or design around it with the idea in mind from the ground up.

Agreed. I recently repaired a small A-Frame in the wilderness. Placed a campfire at one, but could not build my bed at the other end to get the campfire warmth buff, despite the fact that it was only a basic bed's length away from the campfire. It was ridiculous game mechanics like that, that made me decide to install Valheim Plus, which has a feature to increase the radius of comfort items.

Never heard of that, i will try it probably one day

At the risk of sounding like an ad for V+, it is the best all around mod one can have. It has the features of a dozen mods rolled in to 1. No heavy fog, craft from chests, adjust light so evening is as bright as day, zoom out on longship, all lights & fires continually stay lit, advanced building mode, advanced editing mode, transport ore through portals, game clock, just to name a few of the features it has. My favourite thing is it is always updated when needed after an update, within a day or two.
