What Monitor Takeover does

Monitor Takeover adds a quota progression to Lethal Company. After each fulfilled quota the

ship monitors play a takeover broadcast with that quota's dialogue, then list the quota's

rewards. Rewards can unlock contracts, ship upgrades, constellations, moons, suits and store

items, or grant credits, ship fuel and Y4NGZ Upgrades tokens. Progression and rewards run on

the host and persist with the save. Out of the box no rewards are set, and every quota shows

the default Y4NGZ takeover.

Requirements

Your mod manager installs these automatically:

• BepInExPack
• DawnLib
• Y4NGZCore

The Takeover

When the ship reaches orbit after a fulfilled quota, the lights dim, the HUD hides, and

every ship monitor switches to the takeover feed for a configurable number of seconds.

The feed shows that quota's typed dialogue over the built-in Y4NGZ video, or over media

you supply.

Media

Drop a PNG, JPG, or MP4 into BepInEx/config/Y4NGZCompany/MonitorTakeovers and name it in

a quota's section, or paste a full YouTube link instead. One file or link can cover every

quota, or a pool of files and links can be spread across the monitors so each screen plays

something different. Every player needs an identical copy of a local file; a player without

one sees the built-in video. YouTube links download in the background on each player's

machine, so the first takeover after adding one may still show the built-in video. After

that, the download is cached.

For audio you can keep the built-in mix (Charlie Brown mumbles and a siren at the start), let

the video's own audio play, or supply your own sound files or a soundtrack link. When the

takeover ends, the large ship monitors list everything that quota unlocked and granted.

Configuration

The configuration file is BepInEx/config/com.y4ngz.company.monitortakeover.cfg. Quotas 1

through 9 each have their own Quota N section with that quota's dialogue, media, audio and

rewards.

Compatibility

Independent installation: Monitor Takeover needs only Y4NGZCore and the libraries listed under

Requirements. The other Y4NGZ packages are optional companions - install any combination

and each one lights up its extra behavior.

The required Core package is Y4NGZ313-Y4NGZCore-1.0.10 or newer.
