Multiplayer Mod Testing

DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS IF YOU'RE NOT A MODDER

Quickstart

• Download the mod and run the game
• Go to Settings > Mod Options > MultiplayerModTesting > click Enable Testing (no need to restart after changing the config)
• Launch a second instance of the game by double clicking the game executable. (If you need to test with a mod profile, you can instead create a shortcut of the executable, see the Executable Shortcut section)
• You can connect to yourself with a second instance of the game by hosting a private game with one and opening the console on the other and typing connect localhost:7777
• Make sure the config option for testing is set to enabled, either in-game or in the config editor. If using for the first time (and you don't want to reset), tick it to true in Risk of Options in-game for both game instances.

Executable Shortcut

You can create a shortcut that points to the ror2 executable that, when clicked, will open an instance that corresponds to a desired r2modman profile. this is especially useful in scenarios where you need two instances of the game open, such as when testing networking locally.

Steps

• Create a shortcut of your Risk of Rain 2 Executable.
• Right click the shortcut, select properties.
• Open your preferred r2modman profile, go into settings, and select debug, then click Set Launch Parameters
• Copy the "Modded" parameters
• Back on the shortcut's properties, append the launch parameters into the target field.
