About this mod Author’s original text
GRANDPA CONTROL MOD
===================
This is my final and largest mod for the game.
It requires only the HOST to have the mod installed (clients do not need it).
NOTE: ONLY THE HOST can control and play as the Grandpa. Clients cannot become the Grandpa.
Play as the Grandpa in first person and hunt down the burglar gnomes!
IMPORTANT:
Make sure to switch back to your Gnome BEFORE the round fully ends (press L to exit).
If the round ends while you are still controlling the Grandpa, your camera will break for the next round.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- 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:
