Let me Solo Them

A solo-rebalance mod for R.E.P.O. (Semiwork, 2025). Named after the Elden Ring "Let Me Solo Her" meme — gives the lone player a fighting chance.

Every gameplay value is exposed as a config entry. Tune to taste.

Features

• Spawn Grace — Forces a configurable grace timer (default 105s) at the start of every solo level before enemies start spawning.
• Spare Chassis self-revive — Free extra-lives system. Configurable starting lives, per-level grants, respawn location, and HP-on-revive. Includes a zero-HP backup that catches self-destruct edge cases the vanilla death pipeline misses.
• Solo Sword + Tranq starter kit — Spawns an unlimited-durability sword and a tranq gun in front of you at level start. Both are configurable (damage %, stun duration, fire rate, spawn location).
• Solo Damage Multiplier — Scales player-incoming damage by lobby size. Defaults: solo 0.5×, duo 0.75×, trio 0.9×, quad 1.0× (vanilla).
• On-screen HUD — Shows the grace countdown and chassis state.

Installation

1. Install BepInEx 5.4 for R.E.P.O.
2. Drop LetMeSoloThem.dll into BepInEx/plugins/.
3. Launch the game once to generate BepInEx/config/com.pogwas.letmesolothem.cfg, then edit it to taste — or use REPOConfig for an in-game UI.

Changelog

0.3.1

Compatibility fixes for the R.E.P.O. Cosmetics Update (game v0.4.x), which changed how the vanilla death pipeline interacts with the HUD, audio mixer, and inventory. In v0.3.0 the Spare Chassis revive would short-circuit the death pipeline before its tail-end cleanup ran, leaving three things broken after self-revive:

• Audio cutout — most 3D positional audio (footsteps, ambience, enemies, items, cart) went silent post-revive. The death pipeline transitions the audio mixer snapshot to Spectate, and GameDirector.gameStateMain is empty — nothing restores the snapshot on the Death→Main transition. Vanilla restores it via PlayerVoiceChat.ToggleMixer(false), but voiceChat is null in singleplayer, so the restoration path can't fire. v0.3.1 calls AudioManager.SetSoundSnapshot(On) directly.
• Inventory drop on death — the Cosmetics Update added a new solo branch to PlayerAvatar.PlayerDeathDone that calls Inventory.ForceUnequip() unconditionally, dropping every hotbar item at the player's position. v0.3.1 adds a Harmony Prefix on Inventory.ForceUnequip that skips the drop when a chassis revive is incoming.
• HUD vanishes — GameDirector.gameStateDeath SetActive(false)s the HUD parent GameObject (health bar, hotbar icons, haul total, crosshair, and the floating $ tags above grabbed valuables). The matching HUD.Show() only fires after the full death-freeze countdown, which our revive interrupts. v0.3.1 calls HUD.Show() in the custom revive flow.

0.3.0
