There is a limit of 4 goons.

4 goons is the maximum to fit in one car (and thus on any heist.) At one point, we were thinking about having more car options, but eventually dropped the idea. Any dialogue referring to a bigger car is probably a remnant of that.

Oh.. okay! Thanks for the explanation ! But having more goons could have been awsome, even if, yea like many other post.. this kind of things would have drops the difficulty and the chalenge of the game, I would still have loved this feature! (Like, buying a bigger Van :D). Anyway! Great game!! ^^

There is a bad side to having more goons called lag. Especially to computers that cant handle certain newer games.

Yea i guess so, but this is entirely optional;, I mean Your not ganna make an army if you know your computer cannot hold it right? xD. Same thing for those who would whine about the lower difficulty that this would procure, If you find that too easy with 5 or 6 Goons, then only chooses 4 or even less!, the game wont force you to take more.. :D

I was talking to a dev about this this morning. I had a feeling that someone would take 20 goons with them on a heist if they figured out how to do so. Would be funny.

Hahaha yea if there is a way to modify some file to have more Goons, i would appreciated that xD .. lol.. 20 Goons?! xD :)

4 tends to be more then enough as is, what are you going to do with all the extra goons?

I just wanted to have more goons for fun. I finded how to do so. its pretty funny. But the game is awsome the way it is. :) (but still have 2 more just in need of super backup. you know...)

It's not about MORE but about BETTER.
At the end, I only hire goon whom have 7/9 stars skill.

But you still need 2 more guys to do some jobs, like Arcade, Super Fly, BB Bank...

So, even it could be good to have 8 goons capactity, 4 to begin with, and 4 hi-class robbers.

I ran into one small problem. I loaded all the nasty civilians into the van and now after i finished robbing the warehouse i can't escape because the van is full ...

This might happen if you bring "Hostage" in the van, (If your goons are carying guard or civilian.) Make sure only your goons enter vehicle. :) hope this help!.

If you have hostages, ie. any non-goon characters in the van, you can get them out by entering with a goon, and then using the Exit Vehicle option. However, if you pack your van full of hostages and no goon can fit in any longer you can consider your van stolen and the doors locked by the hostages. In such a case, your best bet is to call the police (and escape with their car instead!)

Sure! I dont know why i didn't share it before xD , I dont remember exactly but, here what i know:


1. Backup all the file that you are going to modify.
2. Follow this path "Steam\steamapps\common\The Masterplan\assets\definitions" (or anything that lead to the game file.)
3. I am almost certainly sure that you need to modify the "CarEntityDefinitions.hx"
4. Open that file with any text editor.
5. Use the texte Search (or search trought the whole text) for

{
c: InventoryComponent,
d: {
dropItemsToOriginalPosition: true,
maxSize: 4,
}

6. Now, my game is already modded so i cant remember if it was 4, but it should be 4 , for you.
7. Modify the "maxSize" to the number of goon you want !

NOTE: there is TWO Code line that are exactly the same :

{
c: InventoryComponent,
d: {
dropItemsToOriginalPosition: true,
maxSize: 4,
}

I suggest you modify both of them. (alway in the same "CarEntityDefinitions.hx" text files.)

Note 2: I strongly suggest you use "Text Search" from the text editor, it will bring you to every 4 (because 4 is the maximum default number of goon you are able to take with you) value (or any value you ask it) immediately and save you a lot of time.

I really hope this help and tell me if it work :) Have fun.
