CrewLink VS Impostor

Without being familiar with the mod in question, looking at the github

no, your under estimating reddit users, reddit is the home of SEVERAL subreddits for linux (an open source operating system) main one being r/linux but there are others including /r/linuxgames /r/linuxmint and /r/Ubuntu now being open source there will be a LOT of open source projects for linux, and github is the prime place for open source projects, but again thats an edge case, remember i pointed out there is a GIT HUB LINK IN THE SIDEBAR OF THIS VERY SUB, and several commonly used software (open source) is found on github, either in the form of the source code (always) or in the form of complete builds, and hey look at this one of the most popular mods for among us, and whats that ITS ON GITHUB who would have thought.

It's a mod that allows the players to talk and hear each other in close proximity on the map. https://github.com/ottomated/CrewLink

https://github.com/ottomated/CrewLink he made crewlink for free, man, not sure where you heard it cost money.

I've never worked on API and stuff, but this exist : https://github.com/ottomated/CrewLink/blob/master/src/main/GameReader.ts how does he do it ? I'm interested to know. Maybe you could use the same kind of approch to grab real time game events, and make more interaction with discord

by the way, CrewLink is also free under the GPL :3

A private server (Impostor) can't be achieved due support starting from version 2020.09.27.

Here it is

There are a lot of big issues with the game that have been there since it got it's spike in popularity, mainly no accounts/accountability for shitty behavior in-game, hackers, and not enough content/maps. These things seem like they would be easy to implement; I have literally seen a team of 4 students rebuild the game from the ground-up so they could add and make custom maps, it only took them a month. Modders have created custom servers by reverse engineering the game that have better anti cheat than the official servers. Modders have also been successful in making and adding more cosmetics quickly. These people literally do it for free while the team that's making all of the money from this game can't seem to do it in a timely fashion.

If you want host your own server you can use Impostor (https://github.com/impostor/impostor). If you don't want to deal with setting up an Among Us server yourself you could always use ServerFlex's Among Us Server Hosting which is free.

I recommend to start with little server side plugin with impostor like random map or mix up all players skin, colors pet and name.

It would be difficult to add it to the original game, and it would take many hours of work to just replace an existing map (Doing so might not even be possible). However, I'm actually working on a recreation of Among Us, aiming to make my custom client compatible with Innersloth's client. (I have only tested it on Windows and Android and my current version just crashes on Android.) I could try adding this map into my custom client, but then I'd also have to fork the Impostor project and make the server support the custom map as well.

You should use Impostor instead. You can run your custom Among Us server with this.
