How to Increase Lobby Size

To change the maximum number of players, you need to modify a configuration file:

1. Locate the config folder: Open the BepInEx config folder within your R.E.P.O. game directory.
2. Edit the config file: Open the zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg file using Notepad (or a similar text editor).
3. Adjust the player limit: Find the line that says Maximum Players and change the numerical value to your desired lobby size. For example, to accommodate eight players, set it to 8.
4. Save and launch: Save the changes to the zelofi.MorePlayers.cfg file and launch R.E.P.O.

Caution: Setting the player limit too high might cause the game to crash. Start with a moderate increase and adjust as needed.
