About this mod Author’s original text

BetterFreeplay

A quality-of-life overhaul for Ultimate Chicken Horse's Freeplay mode. Designed to make creative building and practice sessions smoother, especially in multiplayer.

Key Features

  • Moveable Spawn Point: Set a custom respawn point anywhere in the level. Perfect for practicing specific parkour sections!
  • Press [P]: Set spawn to your current location.
  • Press [O]: Reset spawn back to the start platform.
  • Independent Building: Continue playing without interruption when other players enter build mode.
  • Barbed Wire Fix: Barbed Wire keeps its standard hitbox in build mode.
  • No Global Resets: Prevent the level from resetting all cycles when you die.
  • Toggleable Invincibility: Choose whether you want the post-respawn invincibility frames via the config file.

Installation

  • Ensure BepInEx is installed.
  • Place BetterFreeplay.dll into your Ultimate Chicken Horse/BepInEx/plugins folder.
  • Run the game!

Configuration

After running the game once, a config file will be generated in BepInEx/config/BetterFreeplay.cfg. You can change:

  • The Keybinds for setting/resetting spawn.
  • Enable/Disable Respawn Invincibility.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. 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.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. 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:
