About this mod Author’s original text

Backpack for R.E.P.O.

A simple client-side mod for R.E.P.O. that adds a basic backpack system to store and retrieve grabbable items while playing. Store items with one button and retrieve them with another!

Features

  • Store currently held PhysGrabObject items.
  • Retrieve items in Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) order.
  • Simple, configurable keybinds for storing and dropping items.
  • Configurable maximum storage capacity.
  • Console feedback logs storage/retrieval actions and current capacity.

Important Notes / Limitations

  • Client-Side Only: This mod operates only for the user who has it installed. Stored items will become invisible to other players and only exist in your game instance. Retrieving items will make them pop into existence for others.
  • No Persistence: Items stored in the backpack are lost when you quit the game. They may also be lost between level transitions if the game performs cleanup. This is temporary storage for the current session, not permanent save data.

Installation

  • Recommended: Install using r2modman or the Mod Manager. Simply click "Install with Mod Manager" on the mod page.
  • Manual: Download the mod zip file. After installing BepInEx, place the BackpackMod.dll file (or the folder containing it) inside your R.E.P.O/BepInEx/plugins/ folder.

Suggested Mods

  • REPOConfig: Highly recommended for easily changing keybinds and settings in-game via the F1 menu.

Controls (Default)

  • F: Store the item you are currently holding.
  • Z: Drop the item most recently stored in the backpack.

(You can change these keys via the configuration file or REPOConfig).

Configuration

You can change settings using REPOConfig in-game (F1) or by editing the configuration file manually after running the game once with the mod installed.

  • File Location: BepInEx/config/com.BellaModsGames.backpack.cfg
  • Options:
  • Store Key: Keybind used to store the currently grabbed item.
  • Default: F
  • Drop Key: Keybind used to drop the most recently stored item.
  • Default: Z
  • Max Items: Maximum number of items that can be stored in the backpack.
  • Default: 30

Tips

  • Items are always retrieved in the reverse order they were stored (LIFO).
  • Dropped items will appear slightly in front of your character, attempting to land on surfaces below.
  • Check the BepInEx console (usually opened with F12) for messages confirming storage/drops and showing current item count (Stored item: [ItemName]. (X/Y items in backpack)).

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. 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.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. 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.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
