Normal Starbound only allows for a max of 4 players, this mod allows for up to 8.
Meaning that if you have 5-8 people you want to play co-op with, you can have everyone in the team with you! :)

***Only party leader needs to have mod installed, but it might help if everyone has it***
***People hosting their own server need to do the following*** - as long as it's not a dedicated server basically
I think the Server Hoster needs to do these things for it to work:
1. Get this mod
2. Run the starbound_server.exe from "Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\win32"

As long as they're not using the Dedicated Server, you should be able to use this mod.
So the method up above or joining through Steam should work.
- both options use the starbound.config file I believe.
And I have no clue how to edit a Dedicated Server to allow for this and I don't care to try. I've looked for that config for hours before, never found it and I no longer care to.
Don't use the Play button on Starbound to launch the server essentially

It was a pretty simple fix. If you want me to make another mod for higher numbers, let me know in the comments.
...That being said, I still believe the max would come to about 10-12 players, unless some bigger changes were made to the UI, since the screen probably wouldn't be able to fit them all. (It will just go lower and lower and you probably won't be able to see some of the last people, etc.)

Haven't really played since I made it... So I haven't tested it in a while, if it has any problems let me know. I know it works with 6 people at least, but I forgot take a screenshot, srry.
If you have a screenshot of it working as planned, send it my way, I'd like to use it in the slide show up above, k thx.
