If you're a fan of *R.E.P.O.*, the online multiplayer horror game, and have enjoyed titles like *Content Warning* and *Lethal Company*, you might be wishing for a larger squad size. The standard lobby in *R.E.P.O.* accommodates six players, which is quite generous, but if you're looking to expand your team, there's a mod for that. Here's how to use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.*:
Installing the More Players Mod in R.E.P.O.
To increase the number of players in your lobby, you'll need to install the More Players mod. Follow these steps to get started:
- Download and install BepInEx from Thunderstore. This is the essential mod framework that allows you to run mods for the game.
- Download the More Players mod from Thunderstore.
- Open the .zip file containing the mod.
- Drag the plugins folder into the BepInEx directory within your game files.
Once you've completed these steps, the More Players mod will be installed in your game, ready for you to customize your lobby size.
How to Increase Lobby Size
Now that the mod is installed, here's how to adjust the lobby size to fit more players:
- Open the BepInEx config folder on your computer.
- Use Notepad to open the file named zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg.
- Locate the line labeled "Maximum Players" and change the number to your desired lobby size.
- Save the file and launch the game.
For example, if you want to increase your lobby to eight players, simply change the number to 8. Be cautious, though; setting the lobby size too high can cause the game to crash, so adjust it carefully.
That's how you can use the lobby size mod in *R.E.P.O.* to enjoy a larger squad. For more tips, information on the game, and strategies to deal with all the monsters you'll encounter, be sure to check out The Escapist.
