How do I remove other local players?

[Glumpfner]

whenever I play with a friend, we accidentally add a 3rd or 4th local player. How do we remove those players?

it lets u pick b4 u hot online u can set it from 1-4 players

Nope, no matter if you type in 2,3 or 4, you can always add a second local player. Besides, that was not my question. My question is, how do I remove a local player if I accidentally added one during the game?

If I play online with 1 friend, I have to press Z to spawn my character. If I then press T by accident, it spawns a 2nd character for me, so that we are 3 in total. (1 online, 2 local)
How do I remove that 3rd player once I accidentally added him?

the only other way is host has to pause and kick

Also that doesn't work. If the host is the one with the additional local player, he can't kick himself.

Is there really no way to just drop out as a secondary local player? This game was sold so many times, I can't believe I am the only one asking about this issue.

I have the same problem

It has been brought up a lot actually. There is no way to drop out local players, so you'll have to adjust your keyboard settings to avoid this situation.

Doesnt appear the LOCAL PLAYERS in the kick list. GENIUS.

this game really needs polish... so much potential with so many absolutely awful garbage design choices

if you do not do anything for a while, a "kick" sign will appear on top of the guy, touch the button to crash your hands and you're done

This helped me figure it out

TL;DR: Idle < "Kick?" < Approach < Press melee < Run away


Wait for the kick sign to appear above the player’s head. This happens when the player remains inactive for some time.

Approach the player with the kick sign.

Press the melee button to initiate the kick.

Move away quickly from the character, as it will explode shortly after.
