Player Limit Mod

Increase the player limit in Stolen Realm beyond the default 6-player cap. Play with up to 16 players (configurable) in both local and online multiplayer!

Features

• Configurable player limit — Set max players from 1 to 30 via config file
• Full UI pagination — Character selection cleanly paginates with 6 characters per page
• Party counter — Always shows "Party: X/16" so you know your current count
• Native UI styling — Uses the game's own TextMeshPro fonts and dark header boxes
• Golden arrow navigation — Custom sprite-based page arrows that match the game's aesthetic
• Steam lobby support — Patches Steam lobby creation to allow 7+ players
• PlayFab lobby support — Patches PlayFab lobby creation for 7+ players
• Player color expansion — Generates distinct colors for players beyond the original 6
• Battle placement scaling — Expands the placement radius for larger parties
• Portrait support — Clones portrait slots in combat UI for extra players
• Zero configuration needed — Works out of the box with sensible defaults

Installation

1. Install BepInEx 5 if you haven't already
2. Download this mod and extract it into your BepInEx/plugins/ folder
3. Launch the game — the mod will auto-generate its config file

Configuration

After first launch, edit BepInEx/config/com.stolenrealm.playerlimit.cfg:

[General]

## Maximum number of players allowed (1-30)
MaxPlayers = 16

Change the value and restart the game to apply.

How It Works

This mod patches multiple game systems to raise the player cap:

• Character Selection — Expands the party panel slots and adds pagination when you have more than 6 characters
• Network Lobbies — Patches both Steam and PlayFab lobby creation to set the correct max member count
• Lobby Full Check — Overrides the "lobby is full" check so 7+ players can join
• Player Colors — Extends the color palette using golden-ratio HSV distribution for visually distinct colors
• Battle Grid — Scales the player placement radius based on party size

Compatibility

• Game Version: Stolen Realm (Unity 2021.3.16)
• BepInEx: 5.4.x (BepInEx 5 only, not BepInEx 6)
• Multiplayer: All players in a session need this mod installed with the same MaxPlayers setting

Troubleshooting

• Can't add 7th character: Make sure the mod loaded — check BepInEx/LogOutput.log for "Player Limit Mod"
• Characters not showing: Use the page arrows (◀ ▶) next to "Current Party" to navigate pages
• Friends can't join: All players need both BepInEx and this mod installed
• Config not appearing: Run the game at least once with the mod installed
