How do you play Valheim with more than 10 players?
Short answer
Valheim caps a session at 10 players by default. A player-limit mod raises that cap so bigger groups can share one world — you install it on the server (or host) and usually on each client too.
AzuCraftyBoxes is a Valheim mod that allows players to access and use resources from nearby containers when crafting and building, based on a configurable range and item restrictions. Restrictions are controlled by the yaml file Azumatt.AzuCraftyBoxes.yml

The details
The core mod simply exposes the max-player value as a config setting, letting you set 16, 20, or more depending on what your server hardware can handle.
For a dedicated server this goes in the server-side config; for a hosted (peer) game the host and joiners generally all need the mod. Mismatched setups are the usual reason people can't connect.
Beyond the cap, more players means more world load — a dedicated server with decent CPU and bandwidth matters a lot more once you push past the default 10.
