MorePlayers for Inside the Backrooms that allows more players per game.

NOTE: Only the host needs the mod

This is an AI-updated fork of the original ITBMorePlayers mod by bandademan (Mr. Monocle). Original project: https://github.com/bandademan/ITBMorePlayers Original repo is unlicensed — re-uploaded here with full credit and attribution to the original author.

v2.1.0 changes (VectorTV)

Updated for ITB v0.5.3 (original last supported ITB v0.3.0):

• Replaced the outdated nm.maxConnections / GameObject.Find("SlotOption_PLAYERS") + GetComponentInChildren approach with a FindObjectsOfType-based scan for the new UI (TypeSelect / DifficultySelect / PlayersSelect).
• Uses the new TrySetPlayerSelection API to set the player selector instead of the removed SelectedOption setter.
• Safer config parsing (TryParse, Trim, blank-file handling) for MaxPlayers.txt.
• Removed the old on-screen debug/GUI overlay.

Setup

MelonLoader

• ITB v0.5.3 requires MelonLoader and .NET (see original README: https://github.com/bandademan/ITBMorePlayers).
• Install MelonLoader and select Inside the Backrooms.exe.

MorePlayers

• Place MorePlayers.dll in <game folder>/Mods/.
• Optional: create a text file named MaxPlayers in the Mods folder and put the desired player count in it. Default is 8.

Controls

• Click Host and press ~ (backquote / the key left of 1 at the top-left) to set the amount of players.
• To change the max player amount, create a text file named MaxPlayers in the Mods folder and put the number inside.
