RoR2ItemSync

A Risk of Rain 2 mod that broadcasts your run data over WebSocket, enabling stream overlays and companion apps to display your game state in real time.

What it syncs

• Inventory - all items and equipment with names, counts, and tiers
• Player stats - health, damage, attack speed, crit, move speed, armor, regen, shield, level
• World state - remaining chests, shops, equipment barrels, printers, ground items, command essences
• Run info - survivor name, stage number, stage name, difficulty, active artifacts

How it works

The mod runs a WebSocket server on port 11420. Any client on the local network can connect to receive JSON updates roughly once per second. The mod also broadcasts a UDP discovery beacon on port 11421 so companion apps can find the server automatically.

For overlay/app developers

Connect to ws://<host-ip>:11420/ to receive messages:

inventory_update

Sent every second while a run is active. Contains the full game state snapshot.

run_ended

Sent when the run ends (death, victory, or quit).

Auto-discovery

The mod sends a UDP multicast/broadcast beacon every 2 seconds:

ROR2SYNC:<ip>:<port>

It also responds to DISCOVER UDP packets on port 11421.

Installation

1. Install BepInExPack (r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager handle this automatically)
2. Place RoR2ItemSync.dll in your BepInEx/plugins folder

Configuration

No configuration needed. The mod runs automatically when the game starts.
