Why there are too many buttons

Big Walk configures some cooperative puzzles around the number of players selected when the host creates the session. The setting can be wrong even when the correct number of people actually joined.

Will you lose your items?

Hold the items you want to keep before restarting. They should appear at the starting area's Lost and Found when the corrected session begins.

How to confirm the fix

Return to the room with the corrected session size and count the simultaneous positions again. The number of required players should now match the world variant. If it does not, confirm the host actually recreated the session instead of reopening the old one.
