Installing the More Players Mod in R.E.P.O.

By default, R.E.P.O. caps its lobbies at six players, which is already quite generous. But if you're looking to expand your squad further, there’s a way to do that. First, you'll need to install BepInEx, the mod framework tool, via Thunderstore. Follow these steps:

1. Download and Install BepInEx: Head over to Thunderstore and grab the latest version of BepInEx. Install it according to the instructions provided.

2. Get the More Players Mod: Still on Thunderstore, find the More Players mod and download it.

3. Extract the Files: Once downloaded, extract the contents of the .zip file.

4. Install the Mod: Navigate to the BepInEx directory in your R.E.P.O. game files and drag the "plugins" folder from the extracted files into this directory.

That’s it! The More Players mod is now installed and ready for action.

How to Increase Lobby Size

To customize the lobby size, you’ll need to tweak the configuration files on your computer. Here’s how:

1. Access the Config Folder: Locate the BepInEx config folder within your R.E.P.O. installation directory.

2. Edit the Config File: Open the zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg file using a text editor like Notepad.

3. Adjust the Maximum Players Setting: Find the line labeled "Maximum Players." Change the number to your desired lobby size. For example, changing it to "8" will allow eight players in your lobby.

4. Save and Launch: Save the changes and start the game.

Important Note: Setting the maximum players too high can cause the game to crash. Adjust carefully to avoid any issues.
