=== History ===

The "triggers on/off" code function was found by Rebi, using Cheat Engine with the Epic Games version of Journey.

Paleologos converted this code to work on the Steam version, along with converting/finding many other codes, including the level swap codes used in ME&PAL.

Alazar88 experimented with using the triggers on/off code after noticing that the game's script files indicated that companions in CS were prevented simply by trigger instances for level events.
During tests he did with assistance from Yupa_Miralda, it was discovered that by turning triggers off it is indeed possible to bring an already-met companion to CS; with further testing they found this even made it possible to meet companions within CS itself, and have two players experience the level together by turning triggers on and off at the right times.

Paleologos assisted with making the triggers on/off code more user-friendly so that it is a near-seamless gameplay experience, and Alazar88 worked all the codes into a user-friendly standalone mod program, released right before Journey's 9th anniversary.

With Rebi's help, Alazar88 and Yupa_Miralda devised a crude, complicated method to consistently find the specific triggers preventing companions in CS.

Alazar88 finally found a way to turn off the codes which activate these triggers, allowing companions to meet and play together seamlessly without needing to turn off all triggers.
