  "IMPORTANT: This handler only works with the Hollow Knight Multiplayer mod by Extremelyd1, make sure you install the HKMP.dll mod using the Lumafly Mod Installer in your main game files first. To connect the instances press start in the first instance and write the port number in the Port field right above connect (e.g. 26950) then click start hosting to start the server, only start a server in one instance, to connect all instances to the same server write localhost in the IP field, then the same port number as the server, write your nickname and click connect using the mouse cursor, do the same in the other instances, alt-tab between instances to use the keyboard. Disable Steam Input for this game or the gamepads will not restrict correctly.";
