MultiplayerFixes
A runtime Harmony patcher that adds NetworkServer.active checks to popular Techtonica mods, preventing multiplayer desync issues.
What It Does
Many Techtonica mods modify game state (inventories, machine progress, etc.) without checking if the code is running on the host/server. In multiplayer, this causes desync - each player's game runs the same logic independently, leading to duplicate items, corrupted saves, and crashes.
MultiplayerFixes patches these mods at runtime using Harmony, ensuring only the host runs state-modifying code. The changes are synced to clients via Mirror networking automatically.
Key Features
- No modified DLLs - Original mod files remain untouched
- Legal to distribute - Just patches at runtime, doesn't redistribute code
- Automatic - Just install and play, no configuration needed
- Soft dependencies - Only patches mods that are installed

Technical Details
This mod uses Harmony to prefix target methods with a simple check:
if (!NetworkServer.active) return;
This ensures the method only runs on the host/server. Mirror networking handles syncing the results to clients.
