R.E.P.O. Ping System
Adds a team communication ping system to R.E.P.O., inspired by Fortnite and PEAK.
Features
- Quick Ping: Middle click to place a marker where you're looking
- Smart Detection: Automatically detects what you're pinging:
- Walls/floors/cart = Go Here (blue)
- Items/valuables = Loot (green)
- Enemies = Enemy (orange)
- Radial Wheel: Hold middle click to choose from 4 ping types manually (Go Here, Danger, Enemy, Loot)
- 3D Preview: When pinging items, enemies, or the cart, a lit 3D preview appears inside the ping marker
- Object Tracking: Pings follow moving objects (enemies walking, items being carried, cart moving)
- Multiplayer Sync: All players see pings, previews, and tracking in real time via REPOLib NetworkedEvent
- Audio Feedback: Each ping type has a distinct sound (only heard within 20m)
- Auto-fade: Pings last 4 seconds with a smooth fade out
- Screen-Space Rendering: Pings render as screen indicators, visible within 15m
- Distance Display: Shows how far you are from each ping
- Fully Configurable: All settings adjustable via BepInEx config (F1 with ConfigurationManager)
Controls
- Middle click (quick): Place a ping (type auto-detected)
- Middle click (hold): Open radial wheel to select ping type manually
- Right click: Cancel radial wheel
- Release on center: Cancel selection
How It Works

- Quick click middle mouse for an auto-detected ping
