Compatibility
As of patch 2.1.0 Chaos Mode works with the Survivors of The Void Expansion! Vanilla-compatible but some testing still required.
What's Chaos Mode?
Chaos Mode is a Risk of Rain 2 Artifact mod that adds, well... Chaos. Enabling the mod causes bosses and swarms to spawn on a timer. Items are randomly dispersed, chests are randomized and events can be triggered that drastically change the way the game is experienced. Server-side and vanilla-compatible.
Multiplayer
As of patch 2.2.0 multiplayer is a bit weird. If you want to use this mod in multiplayer you essentially have two options.
- Make sure everyone is running a modded client with the same version of the mod installed. Everything should work correctly.
- If anyone is playing unmodded, make sure the host has the mod enabled and set the config setting 'ArtifactMode' to 'False.' The mod will automatically run in the background.
- You cannot currently enable/disable the mod this way without resetting the game (Hopefully I'll fix this later).
The second option is still being tested so if you experience issues please let me know.
Configuration
All settings are intended to work at their default. Raising them can cause unnecessary lag or crashing (especially when combined with the Survivors of The Void DLC). Adjust carefully. (Updating from a version before v2.1.0 may require you to delete and recreate your config file, as some settings were drastically changed)
