This mod requires the following mods to function
BepInEx-BepInExPack
BepInEx pack for Mono Unity games. Preconfigured and ready to use.
Preferred version: 5.4.2100README
Gynxz: RepoChallenges
Assign gameplay challenges to players in R.E.P.O. — solo, with friends, or live on stream via Streamer.bot. Each challenge changes how you're allowed to play, and the mod enforces it for you.
Challenges (14)
| Challenge | Effect |
|---|---|
| No Crouch | You cannot crouch. |
| No Sprint | Walk only — no running. |
| No Map | The map tool is disabled. |
| No Health Pack | Health packs cannot be used. |
| No Upgrades | Upgrade stations are off-limits. |
| Text Only | Communicate via text chat only (social-enforced). |
| Cart Leash | Stay near the cart or you're slowed, then stopped. |
| Flawless Items | Any valuable you damage while holding it is destroyed. |
| Frugal | Only grab items worth less than the threshold. |
| Expensive Only | Only grab items worth more than the threshold. |
| Pacifist | No grabbing weapons. |
| Empathetic | Damage a held valuable and you take damage too. |
| Nitro Fingers | Damage a held valuable and it explodes. |
| T-Rex | Grab range is drastically reduced. |
How to use
Debug keys (default):
- F8 — cycle to the next challenge
- F9 — clear the active challenge
Disable debug keys in the config before streaming if you don't want them active.
Streamer.bot / file bridge:
The mod watches challenge_cmd.txt in your REPO profile folder. Write a command to it and the mod picks it up within half a second:
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
no_crouch |
Assign to yourself |
player:SteamName,challenge:no_crouch |
Assign to a specific player |
clear |
Clear your challenge |
random |
Random challenge for yourself |
The mod also writes helper files you can read for overlays: challenge_status.txt (current challenge), challenge_players.txt (everyone in the room), challenge_ids.txt (all valid IDs, one per line).
Multiplayer
Challenges can be assigned to other players in your lobby — every player needs the mod installed. Assignment is delivered over the game's existing Photon connection.
Configuration
All challenge thresholds, HUD position, debug keys, and the Streamer.bot bridge can be configured via the config file (com.gynxz.repochallenges.cfg) or REPOConfig in-game.
CHANGELOG
Changelog
1.4.0
⚠️ Everyone in the lobby must be on 1.4.0 for the new cross-player features to work.
- Nitro Fingers / Flawless / Empathetic now work for every player, not just the host. REPO simulates item impacts on the host only, so these challenges never triggered on other players' machines. The host now relays impacts on items held by other players to their game, where their own challenges fire (explosions and item destruction are executed host-side so they sync for everyone).
- Much more forgiving command parsing —
player: gynxz, no_crouch(spaces, nochallenge:prefix) andplayer:gynxz, clearnow work. Angle brackets/quotes around names are stripped. Everything is case-insensitive. - Fixed: sending the same command twice in a row was silently ignored.
- New
challenge_aliases.txt(next tochallenge_cmd.txt) — putTwitchName=SteamNamepairs there, one per line. Read live, so you can edit it while playing. This replaces fighting with theNameAliasesconfig, which is only read at game launch and gets rewritten by the game (wiping manual edits made while it runs).
