About this mod Author’s original text

Bombanana Emote Shortcuts

Perform the game's existing emotes with a single key press, without opening the emote wheel.

| Key | Emote |

| --- | --- |

| 1–9 | Corresponding number gesture |

| 0 | Number 10 |

| Q | Quiet |

| F | Middle Finger |

| C | Confused |

| S | Thumbs Down |

| W | Thumbs Up |

| R | Repeat |

| X | Pointing Forward |

The normal emote wheel remains available. Shortcuts trigger once per press and respect the game's emote restrictions. They do not consume or replace other actions assigned to these keys.

Requirements

  • Full version of BOMBANANA! on Windows.
  • BepInExPack BOMBANANA 6.0.755 (declared as a dependency).
  • BOMBANANA Library is not required.

Installation

Mod manager: Install this mod with its dependency, then launch the game through your mod manager.

Manual: Install BepInExPack BOMBANANA first. Copy the contents of this package's BepInEx folder into your game folder, alongside BOMBANANA.exe. Restart the game.

If upgrading a manually installed copy, replace the old DLL rather than keeping duplicate copies.

Configuration

After the first launch, settings appear in BepInEx/config/local.bombanana.numberemotes.cfg.

  • Enabled: enable or disable all shortcuts.
  • EnableNumpad: optionally enable numpad 1–9 and 0 (default: false).

Restart after changing configuration. Letter bindings are fixed in this version.

Compatibility and troubleshooting

Version 0.2.0 was confirmed working by the author on the Windows full game, Unity 6000.3.10f1. Future game updates may require a mod update. Multiplayer visibility to unmodded teammates has not been separately verified.

Shortcuts are skipped while paused, in free camera, with a UI control selected, with the emote wheel open, or when the game blocks emoting.

Check BepInEx/LogOutput.log for Emote shortcuts ready and error messages. If BepInEx fails specifically while downloading Unity base libraries, the tested local workaround was to leave UnityBaseLibrariesSource empty in BepInEx/config/BepInEx.cfg and restart so support assemblies are generated from the installed game. This changes a loader-wide setting; use it only for that error.

To uninstall, close the game and remove BepInEx/plugins/BombananaNumberEmotes/BombananaNumberEmotes.dll.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
