WIP Impeakster Among Us
Prevent your fellow scouts from escaping the island!
About this mod Author’s original text
Impeakster_Among_Us
What if there was a reason we crash landed here...?
This mod is a work in progress, as many of the features I would consider necessary for a complete project aren't implemented yet. This mod currently serves mainly as a way to assign roles, and give the impostor a small buff. Nothing else.
With this mod, players will secretly be assigned "Impostor" or "Scout". The impostor's goal is to stop the run dead in its tracks. You only have a limited amount of time to pull it off though! Every campfire will reset the role assignments, so if the impostor failed, revive the crew and see how far you can push the run (otherwise, scouts who died early will be sitting out for a long long time).
Companion Mods
This mod is best supplemented by other mods. Here are my recommendations:
- WIP_ShorterVoiceRange by keveloper (me!)
- A fork of the NoMoreAudioFilters mod by BaaaRan, but on top of filtering audio it also reduces the proximity range, so it's easier to take out a scout without being caught.
- NoMoreGhost4Real by xammen
- Prevents ghosts from spoiling the impostor. Unfortunately have to honor system on not toggling it. In the future I want to make a fork of this that removes ghosts for living players only with no toggle.
- PushMod by boxofbiscuits97
- Haven't tested this but would be fun in theory.
- Useable_Dynamite by tony4twenty
- Might be overpowered for the impostor. Haven't tested this but would be fun in theory.
TODO:
- Automate win condition check for the impostor.
- Increase poison damage taken from poisonous food if not the impostor.
- Add frisbee to the luggage loot pool.
- Buff sleep dart spawn rate.
- Fix localization header for 8+ players impostor title, as well as excessive length.
- Make ghosts invisible to living players, but visible to dead players.
- Merge with ShorterVoiceRange mod.
- Reveal previous impostor(s) at each campfire.
- Allow the impostor to "fake" holding out a grabbing hand(?)
- Adding a slingshot item would be cool, but I don't have the skillset for that.
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:
