Quick Restart 🔁 for PEAK (2025)

Author: tony4twenty Version: 1.0.0
Requires: [BepInEx]

🧭 Overview

Quick Restart adds the ability to quickly begin a new ascent without waiting at the airport or manually using the kiosk

Less downtime or menu-clicking. This mod is useful players who just want to jump straight into the next run.

🔑 Features

• 🚪 Skip the Airport Kiosk: Start your next ascent immediately without walking to or interacting with the kiosk.
• 💀 Quick Restart After Wipe: Press a button after all players die to restart the island immediately — no need to press “Next” or return to the airport.
• 🔁 Restart Mid-Ascent: Use the restart key at any time during an active run to return to the start.
• 🧍 Multiplayer Safe: Automatically waits for Photon network sync and player readiness to prevent desyncs and duplicate interactables.
• 🔧 Fully Configurable: Change the keybind and restart delay via BepInEx config.

⚙️ How It Works

When you press the Quick Restart key (F10 by default):

• 🟢 In the Airport: The mod simulates using the kiosk and immediately starts a new game. No need to actually use the kiosk!
• ⚰️ In the Game Over screen: It forces all players to close their end screen, transitions to the airport, then automatically starts the next run after a configurable delay.
• 🏃 During a run: Pressing the key forces a fresh start even from the beginning of the ascent.

Behind the scenes, the mod:

• Tracks scene transitions and player sync status
• Waits for all Photon players and Characters to load
• Calls the internal kiosk.StartGame() method just like the game would

🛠 Configuration

After the first launch, a config file will be generated at:

BepInEx/config/tony4twentys.quickrestart.cfg

🔧 Config Options:

Edit this file with any text editor. Supported key names follow Unity’s KeyCode enum (e.g., F9, R, KeypadEnter).

🧪 Known Limitations/Issues

• Only the MasterClient (host) can trigger restarts.
• Potential for desync causing phantom duplicates of interactable objects on during the ascent
• Getting stuck in loading ascent (non-host players)

🧩 Installation

1. Download the .zip from Thunderstore.
2. Extract it into your BepInEx/plugins/ folder.
3. Launch the game. The mod auto-generates a config file.
4. Edit the config file if desired and relaunch the game.

🔥 or use the thunderstore mod manager app 🔥
