Thunderstore is the go-to mod manager for most players, with custom mods for Lethal Company, Risk of Rain, Roblox, and more. The program allows players to find new mods and update their existing ones, but it can also go down sometimes due to various reasons.
When Thunderstore is down, updating or installing mods for Lethal Company or any other game becomes a chore. Downloads tend to be extremely slow during these times, and installing a new mod will be out of the question.
