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

While R.E.P.O. already supports six-player lobbies by default, there's a straightforward way to expand this limit for those who want to play with larger groups.

The process begins with installing BepInEx from Thunderstore, the essential modding framework that enables this modification. Follow these steps:

1. Download and install BepInEx
2. Get the More Players mod from Thunderstore
3. Extract the .zip archive
4. Move the plugins folder to the BepInEx directory within your game files

Once completed, you'll have successfully installed the mod and can proceed to configure your preferred lobby size.

How to Increase Lobby Size

Customizing your lobby size requires simple file editing:

1. Navigate to the BepInEx config folder
2. Open zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg in Notepad
3. Locate the 'Maximum Players' setting
4. Input your desired player count
5. Save the file before launching the game

For example, setting the value to 8 will enable eight-player lobbies. Be cautious when increasing this number - excessively large values may cause game instability.
