Room Hub for PEAK

Every room you have been in, every player you have met, and which of your Steam friends are climbing right now, in one panel that looks like PEAK built it.

Rebuilt from scratch for PEAK 3.0.1. Crash-safe, zero-config, EN / 简体中文 / 繁體中文, gamepad-ready.

What is new in 3.0.0

• A real panel. The old wall of text rows is gone. Room Hub now uses PEAK's own UI palette, button anatomy and typography, laid out as a full-screen menu: header, tabs, list, footer hints, and a permanently visible Steam friends rail on the right.
• Friends by biome. PEAK publishes 13 rich-presence states; the friends rail reads them, so a friend shows "In game · Alpine" instead of a vague "In game".
• Gamepad support. Open the panel and something is already selected. D-pad moves between rows and footer actions, A activates, B backs out.
• Built for PEAK 3.x. Rebuilt against the 3.0.1 assembly, including its refactored networking layer.
• Your history is now hard to lose. A locked or unreadable history file can no longer be overwritten with an empty one, and every shrinking write keeps a .bak copy first.

Features

Room history

• Every lobby you join is saved locally, so a crash or a disconnect never costs you the room.
• Rooms you host are saved too, so you can invite a stranger and add them as a friend afterwards.
• A room you hosted that never had a second player in it is dropped when you leave, so a solo session does not clutter the list.
• Up to 20 recent rooms (configurable), pruned by age (default 7 days).
• The room host is frozen to the creator; Steam ownership transfers never move the badge.
• Join, inspect who was there, or delete a room from the panel.

Player search

• Search everyone you have ever met by display name.
• Each hit shows when you met them and which room it was.
• Invite them into your lobby or send a Steam friend request from the row.

Steam invites

• PEAK has no invite button of its own, and Steam's lobby invite works for people who are not your friends and do not have this mod.
• The button flips to a grey Invited state and stays that way for the session.

Friends rail

Join feedback

PEAK fails joins silently. Room Hub tells you when a room is full, gone, or not joinable, and stops offering the Join button for a room that just failed.

Hotkeys and entry points

Install

1. Install BepInExPack_PEAK, PEAKLib Core and PEAKLib UI.
2. Drop RoomHub.dll into BepInEx/plugins/.
3. Launch the game. Config and history folders are created automatically.

Configuration

File: BepInEx/config/com.roomhub.RoomHub.cfg, also editable in game with PEAKLib ModConfig.

Upgrading from 3.0.x

• Enable Mod is gone. The mod is always on; an old Enable Mod = false line left in your .cfg is ignored and can be deleted by hand.
• Max Recent Rooms now defaults to 20 for fresh installs. If you already have a .cfg, your existing value stays until you change it.

FAQ

A friend shows "Invite only"; why can I not join? Their room is private. Steam does not expose private lobbies to non-members, so a direct join is impossible; they have to invite you. Room Hub shows the same state Steam's own Join Game button would.

A friend shows "Status unknown". Steam only pushes a friend's rich presence when it changes. If they set it before you launched the game and never re-published, there is nothing to read yet. The row updates the moment they change state.

Where is my history stored? BepInEx/config/RoomHub/history.tsv. Plain text; back it up or edit it while the game is closed.

Language switching does not apply instantly? It does. Room Hub listens to PEAK's own language-change event and refreshes the panel without a restart.
