Known issues

  • EVERYONE NEEDS THE PLUGIN FOR IT TO WORK
  • The 4th player to join Orange cannot be turned invisible.
  • Joining Orange to replace a bot will crash the game if there are 4 people on it. Example: Orange has 2 players and 2 bots. If a third player tries to join Orange, they will crash. If orange only had 1 bot, there would be no crash.
  • Sometimes, the NetcodeManager will not automatically install Netcode and will crash on loading the plugin instead. If this is happening to you, try installing Netcode.
