Hot-Join is a splitscreen mod that works by launching new instances and automatically resizing windows.

Requirements

AuthMe

To log into a Microsoft account: /hotjoin authme microsoft

Legacy4J

Traditional method: /hotjoin legacy4j
OR

For a more reliable experience, use the SDL controller handler.

Click the Pause button on a connected controller that is not the current active controller. This will setup the controller automatically when the second instance launches.


Wait a few seconds (around 30 if you're not playing with loads of mods), and the second instance should open.

Limitations

As of 0.3.0, only 2 player splitscreen is supported.
As of 0.4.0, 4 player splitscreen is supported!
