PlayZone

PlayZone

A custom interior for Company employees to bring their families to. Created by LethalMatt and pacoito.

PlayZone is an expansive indoor amusement center featuring activities like playgrounds, cosmic bowling, laser tag, a trampoline park, and more!

All models and textures were created from scratch, with a few exceptions. See more of my work on my ArtStation. If you would like to support my work or want to encourage future projects, you can donate to my Ko-Fi account. Any gratuity is very highly appreciated!

Details

PlayZone was a childcare service created by The Company for employees to take their families to in times of leisure, or to drop off their children during their shift. However, PlayZone's last day of operation was in October 16th, 2004. Maybe you can piece together what happened on its last day...

FEATURES:

• 6 main 'zones' to search and play around in.
• 4 story log terminal entries to find.
• 14 themed scrap items to collect.
• Various custom hazards and player obstacles.
• Functional trampolines, slides, and ball pits.
• A few themed cosmetics for MoreCompany.
• Loads of other custom scripted stuff!

Configuration

A few music tracks are featured in the interior, and while an effort was made to select ones that'd be streamer-friendly (old video game music), their individual volume can be lowered or muted through their respective config settings, in case copyright remains a concern. Likewise, volume for a couple other sound effects be adjusted as well, if you feel they are a bit too loud or distracting.

PlayZone's custom items are injected with their default weights into the scrap spawning pool of whichever moon it generates in, without overwriting values set manually for specific moons. This can be disabled by toggling the InjectScrap setting, to allow other mods to fully control their spawning.

By default, PlayZone adds itself to CullFactory's interior blacklist; distant paths are intended to be visible from far away, so that the player can appreciate the sheer scale of the maze ahead. This behavior can be disabled by toggling the CullFactoryBlacklist setting, to allow CullFactory's own configuration to handle PlayZone's blacklisting, or to enable culling for the interior.

Installation

The interior and all its dependencies should automatically install when using your mod manager of choice (, r2modman, Gale).

For manual installation, install BepInEx normally and drag and drop all.lethalbundles and.dll files directly into a folder under BepInEx/plugins. This must also be done for dependencies.

Make sure you have all the required dependencies installed before launching the game!
