Peak Stranding

Once, there was an expedition

👍 Now with likes 👍

This PEAK mod adds Death Stranding-style asynchronous multiplayer - random items from other players appear in your world and display the names of the scouts who placed them. You can also save and load your items locally to keep them between the runs on the same map (disabled by default).

This is a server-side required + client-side highly recommended mod.

Known issues

Overloading the scene

If players connecting to you are getting kicked with Proton errors - reduce the amount of online structures or turn off loading locally saved structures (disabled by default).

Ropes are troublesome?

Might be caused by the optimizer. Try disabling Experimental_Rope_Optimizer in config. Improved in 0.9.

Deleting the items

The online chain item cannot be deleted. Magic bean vines disappears only from the host side when deleted. This is due to bugs in the game itself and may or may not be fixed in the future.

Config
