Navigating the game with proximity chat can be challenging, especially when trying to locate teammates or avoid monster spawns. The "Better Map" mod solves this by displaying the exact positions of your teammates and highlighting areas to steer clear of. Each monster is represented by a unique shape, with red indicating danger zones, making it easier to strategize your movements.
More Shop Items

The random spawn of items at the Service Station can be frustrating if you're looking for a specific weapon or upgrade. The "More Shop Items" mod increases the variety and quantity of items available, giving you a better chance to purchase what you need and at potentially better prices.
More Stamina

Stamina is crucial, especially when facing formidable foes like Trudges or clusters of Bangers. Instead of adding more stamina, the "More Stamina" mod reduces its consumption rate, allowing you to evade enemies for longer periods, which can be a game-changer during intense moments.
Show Enemy Damage

With 19 different monsters, keeping track of their health can be daunting. The "Show Enemy Damage" mod displays a monster's remaining health after your attacks, either through a red bar or a numerical countdown. This feature helps you decide whether to continue fighting or retreat, enhancing your tactical gameplay.
Team Upgrades

Progressing in R.E.P.O. requires financial resources for weapons and upgrades, which can become increasingly expensive. The "Team Upgrades" mod allows any purchased upgrades to be shared among all team members, regardless of who activates them. This cooperative feature saves money and levels the playing field for the entire team.
Valuable Shrinking

Transporting high-value items can be risky, especially without an Indestructible Drone. The "Valuable Shrinking" mod lets you shrink large items to fit them safely in your cart, simplifying the process of moving valuable goods to the extraction point.
Character Customization

Beyond choosing colors, the "Character Customization" mod lets you personalize your R.E.P.O. robot from head to toe. With options inspired by other games like Pokémon and Mario, you can truly make your character unique and reflect your style.
Improved Truck Healing

Returning to the truck after a successful run is a moment of relief, but the standard healing might not be enough. The "Improved Truck Healing" mod boosts the healing you receive upon returning to the truck, potentially eliminating the need to purchase health kits at the Service Station.
More Of Everything
