  "IMPORTANT: Only working with one gamepad (because the game uses Unity horrible default input for controller support instead of xinput, connect only one gamepad) and multiple keyboards/mice. After all the instances have launched, resized and positioned correctly, press the END key once to lock the input for all instances to have their own cursor, you need to left click each mouse to make the emulated cursors appear after locking the input. Press the END key again to unlock the input when you finish playing. You can also use CTRL+Q to close Nucleus and all its instances when the input is unlocked. Co-op campaign unlocks after the first two levels, for regular multiplayer create a server in one instance and join in the others. If you mix mice/keyboards with a controller make sure you disable gamepad support in the in game settings on the instance(s) you are using mouse and keyboard controls on. Reduce graphics in your main game to improve performance. Alt-Tab to the gamepad instance before locking the input if you use an Xbox one gamepad.";
