Project Lotus: 1.1.2 Hotfix 1

Important

Innersloth, the developers of Among Us, have made changes to their server-side anticheat which may cause players to be kicked. As of right now, this change isn't in effect, but on April 4th, 2025 (or earlier) they will put it in full effect.

To have a stable playing experience, we recommmend using Modded Regions. You can get them from here.
For more information, and updates on this situation, join our Discord Server.

Hotfix Changes

• Fixed new Blackscreen Command not working correctly
• Updated "New" blackscreen prevention

New Blackscreen Command

You can now fix blackscreens occured on game start.
Use the new keybind (LeftShift + LeftCtrl + C) to open chat.
Type /ids and find the ID associated with the blackscreened player.
Then type, /fix [ID] start (start meaning game start).
This should hopefully fix the blackscreen.
You can still use regular /fix to fix ones caused by meetings.

Known Bugs

• Rarely, players may blackscreen at the start of the game or after meeting. The cause of this is usually ping.
• Sometimes, Mastermind may still kill you even if you already killed someone else.
• Rarely, players may be teleported into walls. The cause of this is usually roles like Escapist where you mark positions too close to walls.
• Some Shapeshifter roles, mainly FireWorks, have a bug where they appear as another player.
• Rarely when shapeshifting, players might still have their original name.
• Romantic's win-condition may bug out sometimes, meaning the game might not end, or you won't win with your partner.
• Most translations aren't 100% complete.

For The Future

This release is just a preview of what’s to come—we’re still actively developing new features and improvements.
Here is list of things we plan to include in the future.

• Fungle Support (you can apparently play the map right now, but there are issues so please don't bother reporting)
• Updating Modded Client Compatibility
• Add Option Shower for Modded
• Add more Languages
• Add New Roles & Other Content

If you are developer, you can actually add your own content without modifying PL!
We have added support for addons, and you can learn more info at this GitHub Repo!
You can check out addons made by others from the #community-content forum channel.

If you are a translator, you can add languages!
We have a repository dedicated for language files. Check it out if you are interested!

Project Lotus: v1.1.0

Important

Innersloth, the developers of Among Us, have made changes to their server-side anticheat which may cause players to be kicked. As of right now, this change isn't in effect, but on April 4th, 2025 (or earlier) they will put it in full effect.

To have a stable playing experience, we recommmend using Modded Regions. You can get them from here.

Major Additions

• Support for the latest version of Among us
• Updated role/game options to look and work exactly like vanilla
• Redid Menu and Options with new art created by Piggy
• Replaced In-game credits with custom ones related to PL
• Add SChinese Language
• Added /mod, /unmod, /admin, and /start
• Added whitelist.txt to LOTUS_DATA
• Added /info command
• Added End Game Summary

New Gamemodes

Capture The Flag

Capture The Flag is a gamemode in which you must capture the enemies flag. Their flag is usually on the opposite side of the map from where you spawn.

You can use your Pet Button to pick up their flag, and you must make it back to your flag without losing their flag. Once you’re back, you can use your pet button to score a point.

For more information, check out the website page.

Colorwars

Colorwars is a gamemode in which you must convert everyone to your color using your kill button. If someone else converts you to their color then you’re on their team now, this continues until there is only one color left.

Optionally, by turning off the Convert Color Mode option, you can make it so all teams must fight to the death.

For more information, check out the website page.

New Roles

Altruist (Crewmate)

Report a body to revive the player at the cost of your own life. Depending on the settings, the revival may be delayed. If a meeting is called during this time, the revive is canceled and nothing happens.

Idea taken from Town Of Us
For more information, check out the website page.

Duplicator (Crewmate)

The Duplicator can use their Pet Button to place a clone of themselves, once somebody gets close to the clone, that person will die.
The location of the clone is determined by the host’s settings, either spawning on top of the Duplicator, or in a random spot on the map.
These clones despawn at the end of the round.

Unique Role Idea by @Essence0215
For more information, check out the website page.

Genie (Crewmate)

The Genie is able to gift other players certain modifiers by voting them in meeting. Note that due to limitations, not all modifiers are giftable.

Depending on host settings, you may either have a certain chance of failing the gift, or have a maximum amount of wishes.

Unique Role Idea by @Essence0215
For more information, check out the website page.

Vanilla Roles

The vanilla roles (Shapeshifter, Phantom, Noisemaker, Tracker) have been added to the settings.
You can add them along with the modded roles and they work seamlessly.
Your old settings will not port over to these roles.

New Modifiers

Last Resort

Indicator: »
As the Last Resort, you can vote yourself to gain extra votes for the rest of the match. This vote is canceled and you are able to vote anyone else after this. The drawback is that your role is now revealed to the public for everyone to see.

Unique Role Idea by @Englishpump93
For more information, check out the website page.

Guesser

Indicator: ⌘
Grants any role the ability to guess players’ roles to eliminate them. If the Guesser is able to successfully guess a player’s role, then that player will be elimianted.

While in meeting, the Guesser can select a player they want to guess by voting for them. They can then try to guess that player’s role by using the /r [role] command (e.g. /r Vampire) in the chat.

If the Guesser correctly guesses both the player and their role, then that player will die. If the Guesser misguesseses they will suicide. To skip guessing, you may skip first before voting for a player.

Idea taken from Town Of Us (Originally Assassin)
For more information, check out the website page.

Role Changes

Tracker (Crewmate)

This role replaces the old Tracker from v1.0.

The Tracker can use their Track button on a player to mark their location and track that player’s movements on their map.

Additionally, the Tracker can use their Pet button to reveal arrows pointing in the direction of any dead bodies around the map if enabled by the host.

For more information, check out the website page.

Assassin

Assassin can no longer guess people who have had their role revealed.
They can also no longer guess teammates or impostor roles.
An option was added for Assassin to guess the same people allowed as the Guesser subrole.
If enabled, they can only guess roles that the Guesser subrole can guess minus Impostor roles.

Vigilante

Vigilante can no longer guess people who have had their role revealed.
They can also no longer guess crewmate roles.
An option was added for Vigilante to guess the same people allowed as the Guesser subrole.
If enabled, they can only guess roles that the Guesser subrole can guess minus crewmate roles.

Pirate

Pirate can no longer guess people who have had their role revealed.
They can also no longer guess teammates or impostor roles.
An option was added for Pirate to guess the same people allowed as the Guesser subrole.
If enabled, they can only guess roles that the Guesser subrole can guess.

Phantom

This role was renamed to Taskrunner, to avoid confusion with the vanilla role.

Bait

An option named Announce Bait at First Meeting was added.
It does exactly what you think it does.
It won't announce if there is no bait, or bait dies round 1.

Creeper

Creeper now uses Phantom instead of Shapeshifter.

Bloodlust

This role was named to Rogue because the word "lust" is censored by Innersloth.
It was not named Bloodthirst to avoid confusion with another role.
Sheriff, Postman, and Phantom can no longer have this subrole under normal circumstances.

Torch

Sheriff can no longer have this subrole under normal circumstances.

Sleuth

Altruist cannot be assigned this subrole under normal circumstances.
Their ability activates upon report.

Watcher

Watcher is no longer assigned if the host has Anonymous Votes disabled.

Romantic

Romantic no longer suicides if the meeting was force ended. (ex. Dictator)
Added "Partner can Win with Romantic".
