Start With Random Weapon

Start every run in R.E.P.O. with one or more random weapons — fully configurable. Only the host needs to have this mod installed.

Preview

Features

• Start each new game owning one or several random weapons.
• Choose exactly which weapons can appear: melee weapons, guns, staffs and the weapon carts.
• Defaults follow the shop price: weapons that cost up to $20K are on, pricier ones start off.
• Give one weapon per player, or a fixed number of weapons.
• Two switches in the in-game config menu: restore every weapon to its default, or turn them all off to pick your own.
• Compatible with multiplayer — only the host needs to have this mod installed.
• Weapons behave exactly as if you bought them from the shop.
• Weapons your game version does not have (for example newer ones on an older version) are skipped automatically.

Requirements

• BepInEx Pack for R.E.P.O.

Installation

1. Install BepInEx Pack.
2. Place the file StartWithRandomWeapon.dll into your BepInEx/plugins folder (or install it with your mod manager).
3. Launch the game — the configuration file will be generated automatically inside BepInEx/config.

How to Use

1. Start a new run as the host — the weapons are added automatically when the run begins.
2. To change which weapons can appear, open the mod's settings from the in-game mods menu or edit the .cfg file.
3. Changes take effect when the next run starts; no restart is needed.

Configuration

The configuration file is located at:

BepInEx/config/com.osmarbriones.startwithrandomweapon.cfg

[General]

• Enabled Turn the whole mod on or off without uninstalling it. Default: true.

• WeaponsToSpawn Number of weapons to spawn at start (ignored if SpawnOnePerPlayer is true). Value range: 1–50

• SpawnOnePerPlayer If true, the mod gives exactly one random weapon per player, regardless of WeaponsToSpawn.

• ResetWeaponsToDefault Set to true to restore every weapon toggle to its default value. The switch turns itself off afterwards.

• DisableAllWeapons Set to true to turn every weapon toggle off, so you can enable only the ones you want. The switch turns itself off afterwards.

[Weapons]

Each weapon has a Boolean toggle that determines whether it can appear.

Example:

Item Melee Frying Pan = true
Item Gun Laser = false
Item Rubber Duck = true

• Set a value to true → this weapon is allowed to spawn.
• Set to false → this weapon will never appear.

Enabled by default (up to $20K)	Disabled by default ($22K and up)
Rubber Duck, Melee Inflatable Hammer, Melee Frying Pan, Melee Sword, Melee Whip, Gun Shockwave, Gun Stun, Gun Tranq, Gun Handgun, Staff Zero Gravity	Melee Stun Baton, Melee Baseball Bat, Melee Sledge Hammer, Gun Revolver, Gun Laser, Gun Shotgun, Staff Torque, Staff Void, Cart Cannon, Cart Laser

Defaults apply only to settings that do not exist yet. If you already have a config file, your choices are kept; use ResetWeaponsToDefault to apply the new defaults.
