About this mod Author’s original text
StaticNetcodeLib
This lib allows BepInEx mods to use Netcode for GameObjects in a static context.
Usage
Add the appropriate BepInDependency attribute to your plugin class, like so:
[BepInDependency(StaticNetcodeLib.Guid, DependencyFlags.HardDependency)]
public class ExampleMod: BaseUnityPlugin
Then add the StaticNetcode attribute to any classes that have static rpcs.
[StaticNetcode]
public class ExampleNetworkingClass
After that, you can simply use Server & Client Rpcs as you normally would (even outside NetworkBehaviours), but in a static context, like so:
[ClientRpc]
public static void ExampleClientRpc(string exampleString)
{
ExampleMod.Logger.LogDebug(exampleString);
}
/... /
ExampleClientRpc("Hello, world!");
Note: The Rpc attribute params are not respected for this. For example, ServerRpcs are static and thus cannot have an owner, and are used as if it had the RequireOwnership = false parameter.

Thank you @Lordfirespeed for being my rubber ducky.
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
