This game supports Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) for automatic port configuration.

Issues fixed

Joining friends game forces to use keyboard

Game is designed to use input device you are using and locks to it outside main menu. When joining friends game via steam overlay and clicking invitation game locks itself to keyboard and you have to return to main menu to change back to controller.

Workaround for this is to start steam in big picture mode so you can select invitation with controller. You may also try to join friends game via matchmaking.

Other information

Players can use their own images as character face. Images must be PNG format, be 128x128px size and put in folder <path-to-game>/GameData/UserFaces/. Images can have alpha channel to make them partly transparent in-game. Maximum amount of files is 60.

Notes

  1. File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/238460/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (238460) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
