Do you have more than 6 friends?
Do you like playing with said friends rather than excluding them?

WELL THIS IS THE GUIDE FOR YOU!!!!

Using the scientific method of memory editing (using cheat engine or similar program) you too can have more than 6 friends join your hosted game!!!!

(Be aware that the 6 player limit seems to be intentional and i cant promise stability beyond a certain point, i'm also not a dev.)

Now you may be asking, how do i accomplish this brilliant feat of engineering?

First you need to download the cheating program of you choice, for the purpose of this guide ill be using cheat engine, there are other alternatives out there I'm sure.

(For experienced users this is just explaining how to use cheat engine, if you know how to do this you can skip this part, I'm not responsible for any exploding computers)

---

---

First once you have the game open, you can select the process, once you've done this you want to set the Max Players count to any number.

---

---

Then you need to search for this number in your software of choice.

---

---

After this is done you change the number to any value you chose, and scan again using this number.

---

---

Now rinse and repeat until you have 2 values that match the value you have in game.

These values can now be changed to the player count you desire (the research center does not claim any responsibility about incidents that involve scientist teams of above 6)

---

---

Once this value is changed, the one in game will remain as 6.

However, you have now changed the server file, allowing a greater number of people to join.

When joining they will recieve a message about a modified server file (playercount), at this point you can gaslight your colleagues as much as you wish about this message, but the server now allows the previous set max number of people to join!

I hope this helps those that have more than 6 friends to play with all of them, rather than waiting for a mod.

Hopefully the devs add a little tick box to allow a greater number of players behind a tickbox but one can only wish.
