More Company!
This mod is a lobby player count expansion mod. It increases the max player count.
Not every UI modification will properly accomodate for above 8 players.
Release Trailer
Why this mod? Isn't there another mod that does the same thing?
Yes, although there is another mod that does a very similar thing, it has a few stability issues regarding the functionality of the game. In the development of MoreCompany, I had stability and polish in mind, I wanted to make a relatively frictionless experience regarding expanded player counts.
In my testing of an 8 player lobby, I experienced no issues nor did anyone else in the lobby. Alot of game conditions were tested, but there may be conditions which were not tested that may be broken or cause a softlock. If you experience issues like these, please let me know at the Discord server linked at the bottom of this page.
This mod is not affiliated with BiggerLobby/LethalPlayers nor does it use any code from that mod! Any similarities are purely coincidental.
