KickUI

KickUI

A simple and intuitive mod that adds kick buttons to the Risk of Rain 2 scoreboard, allowing hosts to remove players from their lobby with ease.

Features

• Kick buttons next to player names - Appears in the TAB scoreboard for easy access
• Host-only - Buttons only appear for the game host
• Confirmation dialog - Optional "Are you sure?" prompt before kicking
• Kick notifications - Optional chat message when a player is kicked
• Fully customizable - Button theme, size, and position via Risk of Options

Why This Mod?

Risk of Rain 2's built-in Steam kick commands (kick_steam) are currently broken, making it difficult or impossible for hosts to remove disruptive players. This mod bypasses those broken commands by using the game's internal NetworkManagerSystem, providing a reliable kicking solution with a clean UI.

Usage

• Host a multiplayer game
• Open the scoreboard (TAB key)
• Click the "Kick" button next to any player's name
• Confirm (if enabled) and they're gone!
