What is it?

As the title suggests, this mod adds both PvP and co-operative play to the game - I've tried to make it as familiar as I can to Souls games' online mode, but as I'm not a professional game development company, it's not going to be exactly the same.

What it isn't, is an identical online experience to the Souls games, I've been working on this as a pet project for the past couple of months, and have nowhere near the skills and resources to completely duplicate flawless online play.

The mod is in an early public beta, so do expect bugs/crashes/instability.

Features/Details:

Support for up to 6 players (1 host + 5 phantoms)
PvP - Make use of your prosthetic tools and combat arts to defeat your opponents, grapple through the world and snipe each other out of the air.
Co-op - Play through the game with friends, approach enemies and bosses with a different style and finally beat the game as the summoner class.
Invasions - Enter an unsuspecting person's world as a spirit of vengeance, and fight to the death.
Simplified matchmaking - Invaders and phantoms will always be adjusted to the player's local level, to try and increase the available player pool. For example if you have 40 attack power, and your opponent has 1 attack power, they will hit you as if they have 40 and you'll hit them as if you have 1.
You can't pause the game.

When the mod updates, older versions will be unsupported. (e.g. you can't use v1.00, and match with someone playing v1.01)

Instructions:

You'll need to start a new game, then your character will spawn with 3 new items, these do not replace other items in the game:
Cursed Emblem
Vengeful Spirit
Coward's Bell

You can play online anywhere, but it's area restricted (so you can't invade someone at Ashina Castle from the tutorial area). Sessions will also end as soon as you change areas. You can play online in the tutorial area, but I don't recommend it because it can bug out and softlock you.

To play:
Create (host) a session -  Use the "Cursed Emblem" item.
Invade a session -  Use the "Vengeful Spirit" item
Co-op - The host will need to create a session, then invite you to their game through the steam friends list.
Leave - Use the "Coward's Bell" item
