How to Use the R.E.P.O. Lobby Size Mod

For fans of online multiplayer horror, *R.E.P.O.* offers a familiar experience reminiscent of *Content Warning* and *Lethal Company*. If you enjoyed those games but craved larger squads, *R.E.P.O.* delivers a solution: a lobby size mod. This guide explains how to increase the player count beyond the default six.

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

R.E.P.O.'s default six-player lobbies are generous, but this mod allows for even more. You'll need BepInEx, a mod framework, available on Thunderstore. Here's how to install it and the More Players mod:

1. Download and install BepInEx from Thunderstore.
2. Download the More Players mod from Thunderstore.
3. Open the downloaded .zip file.
4. Drag the "plugins" folder into the BepInEx directory within your game's files.

That's it! The More Players mod is installed. Now, let's adjust the lobby size.

How to Increase Lobby Size

To change the lobby size, you'll need to modify a configuration file:

1. Locate the BepInEx config folder.
2. Open the zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg file using Notepad (or a similar text editor).
3. Find the line "Maximum Players" and change the number to your desired lobby size. For example, set it to "8" for eight players.
4. Save the file and launch the game.

Caution: Setting the number too high might cause the game to crash. Adjust incrementally to find a stable setting.
