Peak Lobby Fix
A BepInEx mod for PEAK that fixes Steam lobby join timing issues.
Problem
When joining PEAK through Steam lobby links (steam://joinlobby):
- The game immediately tries to join the lobby
- But Photon networking isn't connected yet
- Results in "Photon Room not found" error and infinite loops
Solution
This mod:
- Intercepts Steam lobby join attempts
- Waits for Photon to fully connect
- Automatically joins the lobby once ready
- Includes timeout protection (10 seconds)
Installation
Manual Installation
- Make sure BepInEx is installed
- Download the latest release

How It Works
- Detection: Monitors Steam lobby join requests
