TerminalStayAwake
Terminals stay awake when you walk away, so running commands keep going (no hold-Q trick). Limit of kept terminals is configurable. Client-side: works as host or client, nobody else needs it.TerminalStayAwake
A GTFO mod that keeps a terminal awake when you walk away from it, so a running command keeps going. It does the same thing as the vanilla "hold Q while walking away" bug/feature, but without having to do it.
- Only 2 terminals are kept awake at the same time by default. Keeping one more puts the oldest back to sleep. (Can be changed up to 8 in config)
- A kept terminal is not put to sleep while another player is standing near it.
- Coming back to a kept terminal works as normal.
- Mod is clientside.
Requirements
- GTFO (built and checked against Steam revision 34873)
- BepInExPack_GTFO 3.2.3 or newer
(BepInEx 6 IL2CPP; it already includes GTFO-API,
dev.gtfomodding.gtfo-api)
Install

- Download via r2modman
Option 2

TerminalStayAwake.dllfrombuild/or the Releases page. - Put it in
BepInEx/plugins/TerminalStayAwake/of your r2modman profile (%AppData%\r2modmanPlus-local\GTFO\profiles\<profile>\BepInEx). In r2modman you can also use Settings > Import local mod. - Launch modded.

Troubleshooting
Check BepInEx/LogOutput.log in the profile for TerminalStayAwake 1.0.0 loaded.
If it says Patching failed, the game update probably changed the terminal code; the mod then stays inactive
and the game runs normally. Per-terminal messages are logged at Debug level
(enable Debug under [Logging.Console] / [Logging.Disk] LogLevels in BepInEx/config/BepInEx.cfg).
Build
Needs the .NET SDK (6.0 or newer) and an r2modman GTFO profile that has been launched once (for BepInEx core, the generated interop assemblies and GTFO-API).
dotnet build -c Release -o build -p:BepInExDir="%AppData%\r2modmanPlus-local\GTFO\profiles\<profile>\BepInEx"
How the game's terminal sleep logic works, and why this is client-safe, is written up in MODLOG.md.
