Zeus, Thunderhub, RTL - (these are node management apps) will let you set the number of hops when YOU SEND a payment from your node.
But not when you receive!
Mobile wallets are doing this automatically for the user, to minimize the fees and find a quick path for the payment.
I'm using Zeus, Thunderhub and RTL but I never found out how to configure the minimum amount of hops in the path? Where do you specify that? I can only chose the first outgoing channel and a maximum fee I want to pay.
I'm on LND by the way. Maybe it's related to that? I should probably try c-lightning
